Explicit Memories - Not what you think
So explicit memories are those we can talk about including the memories about events as well as memories about facts.
The Importance of Recovery
When we think of exercise we often think of doing more and going harder. However, rest and recover are also vitally important. Without adequate recovery we cannot adapt and grow.
What is Long-term Memory?
Long-term memory is more like what we think of when we think of memory. Like the hard drive that stores all of our data. Long-term memory is also the memory we talk about when we say that our memory is our self. It makes up all the knowledge that we have acquired in life. It makes up a record of the events that have happened to us. It makes up the skills we learned.
The Benefits of Exercise – Boost your Immune System
Our immune system plays the viral role of defending us against infection. While high exercise loads can suppress our immune system and increase the risk of viral and bacterial infections, regular, moderate exercise can improve immune function. It is thought to help flush out bacteria, help circulate white blood cells, slow the release of the stress hormone and elevate the body temperature to prevent bacterial growth. Why not give some exercise a go and help boost your immune system.
