Brain Health and Exercise: A Professional’s Guide to Dual-Tasking Techniques and Programming integrates current neuroscience with practical strategies for incorporating cognitive challenges into exercise programming. Designed for fitness professionals, the guide explores how movement can support attention, memory, executive function, and processing speed. It introduces dual-task training—the performance of cognitive and physical tasks simultaneously—and provides more than 70 drills targeting specific cognitive and physical skills. Each exercise includes step-by-step instructions and identifies the primary cognitive domain and physical skill involved. The guide also provides practical strategies for designing individualized programs and explores how exercise type, frequency, duration, and intensity may influence brain function. The course includes a 328-page softcover book, home study workbook, and 30-question multiple-choice exam.
