This is so interesting. I have been a professional dancer and Pilates instructor for over 40 years. In terms of jumping, I am curious because the jumping and bouncing that I have done has been in a controlled fashion, as opposed to the way you would jump rope. If the jumping and bouncing is in a controlled manner, does it make any difference on these other aspects that you were referring to in respect to the brain. Of course, I have no way of knowing the size of my hypothalamus or the condition of my blood, brain barrier, etc. I do know that my bones are very dense. In my 50s when I had lumbar surgeries, the doctors had a very difficult time getting the rods into my dense bones. I guess I can take that as a good sign?? The other question would be regarding your title depicting 30/40 years old. Is that to say if you were past your 40s and you do this type of intense exercise that it does not have the same positive effects? Hey… I turn 66 tomorrow. I can still rock it like nobody’s business. And partially thanks to you, your work has helped me tremendously over the past couple years. ❤
