About this episode
Let’s have a “heady” conversation about exercise and the brain. See what we did there? On this “NASM-CPT Podcast,” host, and NASM Master Instructor, Rick Richey, explores the five cortices of the brain and how consistent exercise add immense value to the ‘ole thinker. Dr. Richey breaks down the five, which are all named after the part of the skull, and each offer unique functions which process different things. Plus, a full breakdown of the “FPOTB” acronym, which is the first letter of the first word of the cortices used, and a clever way to help keep your knowledge of the topic on point. So, get ready to exercise your brain with this monologue presentation from Dr. Richey.
