Daniel Spieler is a professor in the School of Psychology at Georgia Tech who regularly gets in two hours of cardio five days per week. He does his workout each morning and evening, and it powers his commute to and from his work at Georgia Tech, where he studies cognitive aging. Daniel finds his 13-mile bike commute and his research focus to be connected in a crucial way: “One aspect of research in cognitive aging is a better understanding that things like cardiovascular exercise are really important for maintaining cognition as people age.” In short, Daniel says activities like biking can keep you alert as you get older.
