This interferes with sleep in some people. think carefully

People who do more aerobic exercise may have better ''executive function,'' the ability to organize, interpret, and act on information. It increases blood flow to the area and helps control executive function. In the long term, exercise seems to help brain cells in the prefrontal cortex connect more easily.
