Background: Several interventional studies have shown improvement in core symptoms of Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) with aerobic exercise as an add-on therapy for children with ADHD treated with stimulants. Studies in the general population have shown that aerobic exercise in adults may improve cognitive function in general and executive function in particular. Although non-medication treatment for ADHD has focused on cognitive training in addition to medication, some evidence indicate that intense aerobic exercise impacts brain structure, improves brain function, and has effects similar to stimulant medication.
