如果我告訴各位，
有件你們現在就可以做的事，
有件你們現在就可以做的事，
00:17
that would have an immediate,
positive benefit for your brain

對你的大腦會立即產生正面的好處，
00:20
including your mood and your focus?
2
8880

包括你的心情和專注都會受惠，
你會如何呢？
你會如何呢？
00:24
And what if I told you that same thing
could actually last a long time

如果我告訴各位，
這事能持續很久的時間，

並保護你的大腦免於不同的病症，
00:32
like depression,
Alzheimer's disease or dementia.

00:36
Would you do it?
6
24280
1656
你們願意做這件事嗎？
00:37
Yes!
7
25960
1216
願意！
00:39
I am talking about the powerful effects
of physical activity.
of physical activity.
8
27200
4496
我談的是活動身體的強大效應。
00:43
Simply moving your body,
9
31720
2416
只要很單純地去動你的身體，
00:46
has immediate, long-lasting
and protective benefits for your brain.

And that can last
for the rest of your life.

且持續一生。
00:54
So what I want to do today
is tell you a story
is tell you a story
12
42160
2376
所以，今天我要跟各位說個故事，
00:56
about how I used my deep
understanding of neuroscience,
understanding of neuroscience,
13
44560
4616
這故事有關身為神經科學教授的我，
01:01
as a professor of neuroscience,
14
49200
1736
如何用我對於神經科學的深入了解，
01:02
to essentially do an experiment on myself
15
50960
2816
在我自己身上實驗，
01:05
in which I discovered
the science underlying
the science underlying
16
53800
3016
從實驗中找到科學理由來說明，
01:08
why exercise
is the most transformative thing
is the most transformative thing
17
56840
3856
為什麼在現今你能做的
所有事情當中，
所有事情當中，
01:12
that you can do for your brain today.
18
60720
2000
運動最能改變你的大腦。
01:15
Now, as a neuroscientist,
I know that our brains,
I know that our brains,
19
63360
3696
身為神經科學家，
我知道我們的大腦，
我知道我們的大腦，
01:19
that is the thing in our head right now,
20
67080
3056
也就是在我們頭裡面的那個東西，
01:22
that is the most complex structure
known to humankind.
known to humankind.
21
70160
5096
是人類所知最複雜的結構。
01:27
But it's one thing
to talk about the brain,
to talk about the brain,
22
75280
2656
但，談論大腦是一回事，
01:29
and it's another to see it.
23
77960
1440
看大腦又是另一回事了。
01:31
So here is a real preserved human brain.
24
79880
2856
這是一個真正保存起來的人類大腦。
01:34
And it's going to illustrate two key areas
that we are going to talk about today.
that we are going to talk about today.
25
82760
3856
它將會說明我們今天
要談到的兩個關鍵區域。
要談到的兩個關鍵區域。
01:38
The first is the prefrontal cortex,
right behind your forehead,
right behind your forehead,
26
86640
4256
第一個是「前額葉皮質」，
就在你的額頭後面，
就在你的額頭後面，
01:42
critical for things like decision-making,
focus, attention and your personality.
focus, attention and your personality.
27
90920
5880
對決策、專注、注意力，
以及你的人格來說很重要。
以及你的人格來說很重要。
01:49
The second key area is located
in the temporal lobe, shown right here.
in the temporal lobe, shown right here.
28
97360
4256
第二個關鍵區域位在「顳葉」，
就在圖上的這裡。
就在圖上的這裡。
01:53
You have two temporal lobes in your brain,
the right and the left,
the right and the left,
29
101640
3136
你的大腦中有兩個顳葉，一右一左，
01:56
and deep in the temporal lobe
is a key structure
is a key structure
30
104800
2616
顳葉的深處是個關鍵的結構，
01:59
critical for your ability
31
107440
1696
重要功能是讓你能夠
02:01
to form and retain new long-term
memories for facts and events.
memories for facts and events.
32
109160
4456
針對事實和事件來形成
並維持新的長期記憶。
並維持新的長期記憶。
02:05
And that structure
is called the hippocampus.
is called the hippocampus.
33
113640
3136
那個結構就叫做「海馬迴」。
02:08
So I've always been fascinated
with the hippocampus.
with the hippocampus.
34
116800
3360
我一直很迷海馬迴。
02:12
How could it be that an event
that lasts just a moment,
that lasts just a moment,
35
120640
4816
怎麼有可能，一個短暫的事件，
02:17
say, your first kiss,
36
125480
2216
比如，你的初吻，
02:19
or the moment your first child was born,
37
127720
3456
或是你的第一個孩子出生的那一刻，
02:23
can form a memory
that has changed your brain,
that has changed your brain,
38
131200
3056
能夠形成一個記憶，
這記憶能改變你的大腦，
這記憶能改變你的大腦，
02:26
that lasts an entire lifetime?
39
134280
2336
且一生都不會忘記？
02:28
That's what I want to understand.
40
136640
2016
那是我想要了解的。
02:30
I wanted to start and record
the activity of individual brain cells
the activity of individual brain cells
41
138680
5096
我想要記下受試者在形成記憶時，
02:35
in the hippocampus
42
143800
1616
海馬迴中的
02:37
as subjects were forming new memories.
43
145440
2176
每個腦細胞的活動。
02:39
And essentially try and decode how
those brief bursts of electrical activity,
those brief bursts of electrical activity,
44
147640
5296
並真的試圖破解那些
短暫的突升電流活動，
短暫的突升電流活動，
02:44
which is how neurons
communicate with each other,
communicate with each other,
45
152960
2936
也就是神經元彼此溝通的方式，
02:47
how those brief bursts either allowed us
to form a new memory, or did not.
to form a new memory, or did not.
46
155920
4600
那些短暫的突升怎麼讓我們
形成新記憶，或沒形成記憶？
形成新記憶，或沒形成記憶？
02:52
But a few years ago,
I did something very unusual in science.
I did something very unusual in science.
47
160960
3336
但幾年前，我做了一件
在科學中被認為很不尋常的事。
在科學中被認為很不尋常的事。
02:56
As a full professor of neural science,
48
164320
2136
身為神經科學的正教授，
02:58
I decided to completely switch
my research program.
my research program.
49
166480
3800
我決定完全轉換我的研究計畫。
03:02
Because I encountered something
that was so amazing,
that was so amazing,
50
170840
4296
因為我遇到了非常驚人的事，
03:07
with the potential to change so many lives
51
175160
3056
它有潛能可以改變許多人的生命，
03:10
that I had to study it.
52
178240
1256
我得要去研究它。
03:11
I discovered and I experienced
the brain-changing effects of exercise.
the brain-changing effects of exercise.
53
179520
6816
我發現且體驗到
運動有改變大腦的效應。
運動有改變大腦的效應。
03:18
And I did it in a completely
inadvertent way.
inadvertent way.
54
186360
3176
我完全是在無意間發現的。
03:21
I was actually at the height
of all the memory work that I was doing --
of all the memory work that I was doing --
55
189560
3816
其實當時我正處於所進行的
記憶研究工作的頂峰，
記憶研究工作的頂峰，
03:25
data was pouring in,
56
193400
1616
資料不斷地湧入，
03:27
I was becoming known in my field
for all of this memory work.
for all of this memory work.
57
195040
4536
在我的領域中，我開始因為
這項記憶研究而變得出名。
這項記憶研究而變得出名。
03:31
And it should have been going great.
It was, scientifically.
It was, scientifically.
58
199600
3600
本來應該很順利。
在科學上的確很順利。
在科學上的確很順利。
03:35
But when I stuck my head
out of my lab door,
out of my lab door,
59
203720
3936
但當我從實驗室門探出頭，
03:39
I noticed something.
60
207680
1240
我注意到了某件事。
03:41
I had no social life.
61
209920
1456
我沒有社交生活。
03:43
I spent too much time
listening to those brain cells
listening to those brain cells
62
211400
2736
我花了太多時間，
獨自在黑暗的房間中
獨自在黑暗的房間中
03:46
in a dark room, by myself.
63
214160
1576
傾聽那些腦細胞。
03:47
(Laughter)
64
215760
1136
（笑聲）
03:48
I didn't move my body at all.
65
216920
2616
我完全沒動我的身體。
03:51
I had gained 25 pounds.
66
219560
2736
我的體重增加了二十五磅。
03:54
And actually, it took me
many years to realize it,
many years to realize it,
67
222320
2816
而且，我花了很多年，才了解到
03:57
I was actually miserable.
68
225160
1456
我其實很悲慘。
03:58
And I shouldn't be miserable.
69
226640
1696
而我不應該如此悲慘。
04:00
And I went on a river-rafting trip --
by myself, because I had no social life.
by myself, because I had no social life.
70
228360
4456
我參加一趟泛舟之旅──
自己一個人，因為我沒有社交生活。
自己一個人，因為我沒有社交生活。
04:04
And I came back --
71
232840
1256
接著我回來了。
04:06
(Laughter)
72
234120
1016
（笑聲）
04:07
thinking, "Oh, my God,
I was the weakest person on that trip."
I was the weakest person on that trip."
73
235160
3456
心想：「我的天，
我是那趟旅行中最弱的人。」
我是那趟旅行中最弱的人。」
04:10
And I came back with a mission.
74
238640
1536
回來後我就有了一個使命。
04:12
I said, "I'm never going to feel
like the weakest person
like the weakest person
75
240200
2656
我說：「我再也不要覺得自己是
泛舟之旅中最弱的人了。」
04:14
on a river-rafting trip again."
76
242880
1496
04:16
And that's what made me go to the gym.
77
244400
1976
這就是我上健身房的動力來源。
04:18
And I focused my type-A personality
78
246400
3496
我把我的Ａ型人格專注在
04:21
on going to all the exercise
classes at the gym.
classes at the gym.
79
249920
2936
去參加健身房中所有的運動課程。
04:24
I tried everything.
80
252880
1896
我什麼都嘗試了，
04:26
I went to kickbox,
dance, yoga, step class,
dance, yoga, step class,
81
254800
3936
我去試了自由搏擊、
跳舞、瑜伽、階梯課程，
跳舞、瑜伽、階梯課程，
04:30
and at first it was really hard.
82
258760
2136
一開始真的很辛苦。
04:32
But what I noticed is that after every
sweat-inducing workout that I tried,
sweat-inducing workout that I tried,
83
260920
4976
但我注意到，在我每回嘗試
會讓我滿身大汗的運動之後，
會讓我滿身大汗的運動之後，
04:37
I had this great mood boost
and this great energy boost.
and this great energy boost.
84
265920
3896
我的情緒和能量都會大大提升。
04:41
And that's what kept me
going back to the gym.
going back to the gym.
85
269840
2736
這就是為什麼我會
一直持續回到健身房。
一直持續回到健身房。
04:44
Well, I started feeling stronger.
86
272600
2576
我開始感覺比較強壯了。
04:47
I started feeling better,
I even lost that 25 pounds.
I even lost that 25 pounds.
87
275200
3616
我開始感覺更好了，
我甚至把那二十五磅給減掉了。
我甚至把那二十五磅給減掉了。
04:50
And now, fast-forward a year and a half
into this regular exercise program
into this regular exercise program
88
278840
5000
現在，從我開始做日常鍛鍊
至今已有一年半多了，
至今已有一年半多了，
04:56
and I noticed something that really
made me sit up and take notice.
made me sit up and take notice.
89
284800
3216
我注意到一件事，它讓我
吃驚並吸引了我的注意。
吃驚並吸引了我的注意。
05:00
I was sitting at my desk,
writing a research grant,
writing a research grant,
90
288040
2976
我坐在桌前寫研究補助申請書，
05:03
and a thought went through my mind
91
291040
2056
腦中浮現一個想法，
05:05
that had never gone
through my mind before.
through my mind before.
92
293120
2656
那是我以前從來沒有想過的。
05:07
And that thought was,
93
295800
1856
那個想法就是：
05:09
"Gee, grant-writing is going well today."
94
297680
3296
「天，今天的研究補助
申請寫得真順利。」
申請寫得真順利。」
05:13
And all the scientists --
95
301000
1296
所有的科學家──
05:14
(Laughter)
96
302320
1016
（笑聲）
是啊，當我那麼說時，
科學家都會笑出來，
科學家都會笑出來，
05:15
yeah, all the scientists
always laugh when I say that,
always laugh when I say that,
97
303360
2576
05:17
because grant-writing never goes well.
98
305960
2016
因為寫補助申請從來就不會順利。
05:20
It is so hard; you're always
pulling your hair out,
pulling your hair out,
99
308000
2816
它真的很難搞，你總是要想破頭，
05:22
trying to come up with that
million-dollar-winning idea.
million-dollar-winning idea.
100
310840
3256
試圖提個能贏得百萬美元的想法。
05:26
But I realized that
the grant-writing was going well,
the grant-writing was going well,
101
314120
3256
但我發現，補助申請能寫得很順利，
05:29
because I was able
to focus and maintain my attention
to focus and maintain my attention
102
317400
4336
是因為我專注和維持注意力的時間，
05:33
for longer than I had before.
103
321760
2016
都比以前更長。
05:35
And my long-term memory --
what I was studying in my own lab --
what I was studying in my own lab --
104
323800
4976
且我的長期記憶──
我的實驗室的研究主題──
我的實驗室的研究主題──
05:40
seemed to be better in me.
105
328800
1840
似乎在我身上也變得更好。
就在那時，我把一切都連起來了。
05:43
And that's when I put it together.
106
331560
2056
05:45
Maybe all that exercise
that I had included and added to my life
that I had included and added to my life
107
333640
5216
也許，我加在生活中的那些運動
05:50
was changing my brain.
108
338880
1216
在改變我的大腦。
05:52
Maybe I did an experiment on myself
without even knowing it.
without even knowing it.
109
340120
3016
也許我在自己身上
做了實驗而不自知。
做了實驗而不自知。
05:55
So as a curious neuroscientist,
110
343160
1616
身為好奇的神經科學家，
05:56
I went to the literature to see
what I could find about what we knew
what I could find about what we knew
111
344800
3696
我去查研究文獻，
看看有沒有什麼已知資訊
看看有沒有什麼已知資訊
與運動對大腦的效應有關。
06:00
about the effects
of exercise on the brain.
of exercise on the brain.
112
348520
2096
06:02
And what I found was an exciting
and a growing literature
and a growing literature
113
350640
4136
我發現的文獻很讓人興奮，
且還在不斷增加中，
且還在不斷增加中，
06:06
that was essentially showing everything
that I noticed in myself.
that I noticed in myself.
114
354800
4176
基本上，文獻完全點出了
我在身上注意到的所有改變。
我在身上注意到的所有改變。
06:11
Better mood, better energy,
better memory, better attention.
better memory, better attention.
115
359000
3960
更好的心情、更高的能量、
更好的記憶、更佳的注意力。
更好的記憶、更佳的注意力。
06:15
And the more I learned,
116
363600
2176
我學得越多，
06:17
the more I realized
how powerful exercise was.
how powerful exercise was.
117
365800
3376
我就越能了解運動有多強大。
06:21
Which eventually
led me to the big decision
led me to the big decision
118
369200
3176
最終，這導致了我做出重大決定，
06:24
to completely shift my research focus.
119
372400
3736
完全轉變我的研究重心。
06:28
And so now, after several years
of really focusing on this question,
of really focusing on this question,
120
376160
4896
所以，在真正投入這個問題幾年後，
06:33
I've come to the following conclusion:
121
381080
2896
我得到了下列的結論：
06:36
that exercise is
the most transformative thing
the most transformative thing
122
384000
3496
在現今你能做的所有事情當中，
06:39
that you can do for your brain today
123
387520
2256
運動最能改變你的大腦，
06:41
for the following three reasons.
124
389800
2096
理由是以下三個。
06:43
Number one: it has
immediate effects on your brain.
immediate effects on your brain.
125
391920
3776
第一：運動對你的大腦
有立即的效應。
有立即的效應。
06:47
A single workout that you do
126
395720
2016
你做的每一次運動，
06:49
will immediately increase
levels of neurotransmitters
levels of neurotransmitters
127
397760
3616
都會立即增加神經傳遞質的量，
06:53
like dopamine, serotonin
and noradrenaline.
and noradrenaline.
128
401400
3536
如多巴胺、血清素、正腎上腺素。
06:56
That is going to increase your mood
right after that workout,
right after that workout,
129
404960
3256
這會在你運動之後
馬上提升你的心情，
馬上提升你的心情，
07:00
exactly what I was feeling.
130
408240
1576
那正是我的感受。
07:01
My lab showed, that a single workout
131
409840
2456
我的實驗室顯示，單一次運動
07:04
can improve your ability
to shift and focus attention,
to shift and focus attention,
132
412320
3576
就能改善你轉移和聚焦的能力，
07:07
and that focus improvement
will last for at least two hours.
will last for at least two hours.
133
415920
3936
而那專注的改善
會持續至少兩個小時。
會持續至少兩個小時。
07:11
And finally, studies have shown
134
419880
1616
最後，研究顯示，
07:13
that a single workout
will improve your reaction times
will improve your reaction times
135
421520
3376
單一次運動就會改善你的反應時間，
07:16
which basically means
136
424920
1256
基本上，那就表示
07:18
that you are going to be faster
at catching that cup of Starbucks
at catching that cup of Starbucks
137
426200
3336
如果一杯星巴克咖啡從櫃台滑落，
07:21
that falls off the counter,
138
429560
1736
你能更快速接住它，
07:23
which is very, very important.
139
431320
1736
這點是非常非常重要的。
07:25
(Laughter)
140
433080
1016
（笑聲）
07:26
But these immediate effects are transient,
they help you right after.
they help you right after.
141
434120
3920
但這些立即的效應很短暫，
在運動剛結束時幫助你。
在運動剛結束時幫助你。
07:30
What you have to do is do what I did,
142
438720
1816
你們得要做我所做的，
07:32
that is change your exercise regime,
increase your cardiorespiratory function,
increase your cardiorespiratory function,
143
440560
4016
也就是改變你的運動規律，
增加你的心肺功能，
增加你的心肺功能，
07:36
to get the long-lasting effects.
144
444600
2336
才能得到持久的效應。
07:38
And these effects are long-lasting
145
446960
2256
這些效應之所以能持久，
07:41
because exercise actually
changes the brain's anatomy,
changes the brain's anatomy,
146
449240
4416
是因為運動確實能改變大腦的結構、
07:45
physiology and function.
147
453680
2000
生理機能，以及功能。
07:48
Let's start with my favorite
brain area, the hippocampus.
brain area, the hippocampus.
148
456360
3240
我們從我最愛的
大腦區域海馬迴開始。
大腦區域海馬迴開始。
07:52
The hippocampus --
149
460360
1376
海馬迴──
07:53
or exercise actually
produces brand new brain cells,
produces brand new brain cells,
150
461760
4456
運動確實能製造出全新的腦細胞，
07:58
new brain cells in the hippocampus,
that actually increase its volume,
that actually increase its volume,
151
466240
4656
海馬迴中新的腦細胞能增加容積，
08:02
as well as improve
your long-term memory, OK?
your long-term memory, OK?
152
470920
4336
還能改善你的長期記憶。
08:07
And that including in you and me.
153
475280
2440
對你我皆是如此。
08:10
Number two: the most common finding
in neuroscience studies,
in neuroscience studies,
154
478400
3616
第二：在神經科學研究中
最常見的研究發現，
最常見的研究發現，
08:14
looking at effects of long-term exercise,
155
482040
2616
在長期運動的效應這方面，
08:16
is improved attention function
dependent or your prefrontal cortex.
dependent or your prefrontal cortex.
156
484680
4376
就是改善注意力功能，
而這功能取決於你的前額葉皮質。
而這功能取決於你的前額葉皮質。
08:21
You not only get
better focus and attention,
better focus and attention,
157
489080
2456
你不但會有更佳的專注和注意力，
08:23
but the volume of the hippocampus
increases as well.
increases as well.
158
491560
3576
海馬迴的容量也會增加。
08:27
And finally, you not only get
immediate effects of mood with exercise
immediate effects of mood with exercise
159
495160
4976
最後，你做運動會得到的
不只是心情上的立即效應，
不只是心情上的立即效應，
08:32
but those last for a long time.
160
500160
1656
還會有長期的效應。
08:33
So you get long-lasting increases
in those good mood neurotransmitters.
in those good mood neurotransmitters.
161
501840
5360
所以，你的好心情神經
傳遞質就能得持續增加。
傳遞質就能得持續增加。
08:39
But really, the most transformative thing
that exercise will do
that exercise will do
162
507920
4576
但其實，運動能帶來最大的轉變，
08:44
is its protective effects on your brain.
163
512520
3176
就是對大腦產生保護效應。
08:47
Here you can think
about the brain like a muscle.
about the brain like a muscle.
164
515720
2856
可以把大腦想成是肌肉。
08:50
The more you're working out,
165
518600
1656
你運動得越多，
08:52
the bigger and stronger your hippocampus
and prefrontal cortex gets.
and prefrontal cortex gets.
166
520280
4840
你的海馬迴和前額葉皮質
就會更大、更強壯。
就會更大、更強壯。
08:57
Why is that important?
167
525640
1296
為什麼那很重要？
08:58
Because the prefrontal cortex
and the hippocampus
and the hippocampus
168
526960
2776
因為前額葉皮質和海馬迴
09:01
are the two areas that are most
susceptible to neurodegenerative diseases
susceptible to neurodegenerative diseases
169
529760
5776
這兩個區域最容易因
神經退化性疾病和老化
神經退化性疾病和老化
09:07
and normal cognitive decline in aging.
170
535560
2920
而使得正常認知退化。
09:10
So with increased exercise
over your lifetime,
over your lifetime,
171
538960
3176
在你的一生中增加運動
09:14
you're not going to cure
dementia or Alzheimer's disease,
dementia or Alzheimer's disease,
172
542160
3136
並不能治癒失智症或阿茲海默症，
09:17
but what you're going to do
is you're going to create
is you're going to create
173
545320
2496
但能創造出
最強壯、最大的海馬迴
和前額葉皮質，
和前額葉皮質，
09:19
the strongest, biggest hippocampus
and prefrontal cortex
and prefrontal cortex
174
547840
2656
09:22
so it takes longer for these diseases
to actually have an effect.
to actually have an effect.
175
550520
4440
所以這些疾病要更長的時間
才會對你產生實際的影響。
才會對你產生實際的影響。
09:27
You can think of exercise, therefore,
176
555560
2776
因此，你可以把運動想成是
09:30
as a supercharged 401K for your brain, OK?
177
558360
5416
大腦的加強版 401K 退休福利計畫。
09:35
And it's even better, because it's free.
178
563800
2880
它還更好，因為它是免費的。
09:39
So this is the point in the talk
where everybody says,
where everybody says,
179
567880
2896
演說到這個時點，大家通常會說：
09:42
"That sounds so interesting, Wendy,
180
570800
2136
「溫蒂，那聽起來好有趣，
09:44
but I really will only
want to know one thing.
want to know one thing.
181
572960
2536
但我其實只想知道一件事，
09:47
And that is, just tell me
the minimum amount of exercise
the minimum amount of exercise
182
575520
3896
那就是只要告訴我
最少要做多少運動
最少要做多少運動
09:51
I need to get all these changes."
183
579440
1856
才能得到所有這些改變。」
09:53
(Laughter)
184
581320
1016
（笑聲）
09:54
And so I'm going to tell you
the answer to that question.
the answer to that question.
185
582360
2816
所以，我會告訴各位
這個問題的答案。
這個問題的答案。
09:57
First, good news: you don't have to become
a triathlete to get these effects.
a triathlete to get these effects.
186
585200
4296
首先，好消息：你不用變成鐵人三項
運動員也可以得到這些效應。
運動員也可以得到這些效應。
10:01
The rule of thumb is you want to get
three to four times a week exercise
three to four times a week exercise
187
589520
4536
經驗法則是，每週要運動三到四次，
10:06
minimum 30 minutes an exercise session,
188
594080
3416
每次運動至少要有三十分鐘，
10:09
and you want to get aerobic exercise in.
189
597520
2656
且你需要做一些有氧運動。
10:12
That is, get your heart rate up.
190
600200
1976
也就是要讓你的心跳升高。
10:14
And the good news is,
you don't have to go to the gym
you don't have to go to the gym
191
602200
2496
好消息是你不需要去健身房
10:16
to get a very expensive gym membership.
192
604720
2016
付很貴的健身房會費。
10:18
Add an extra walk around the block
in your power walk.
in your power walk.
193
606760
3696
在你健走的時候，
再額外多走一個街區。
再額外多走一個街區。
10:22
You see stairs -- take stairs.
194
610480
2456
如果你看見有樓梯可走，走樓梯。
10:24
And power-vacuuming can be as good
as the aerobics class
as the aerobics class
195
612960
4096
power-vacuuming
是很好的有氧課程選擇，
是很好的有氧課程選擇，
10:29
that you were going to take at the gym.
196
617080
1880
如果你到健身房運動的話。
10:31
So I've gone from memory pioneer
197
619800
4056
所以，我從記憶的先驅拓荒者，
10:35
to exercise explorer.
198
623880
1776
變成了運動探索者。
10:37
From going into the innermost
workings of the brain,
workings of the brain,
199
625680
3816
從進入大腦最深處的運作活動，
10:41
to trying to understand how exercise
can improve our brain function,
can improve our brain function,
200
629520
4216
變成試圖了解運動
如何能改善大腦功能，
如何能改善大腦功能，
10:45
and my goal in my lab right now
201
633760
2816
現在，我的實驗室的目標
10:48
is to go beyond that rule of thumb
that I just gave you --
that I just gave you --
202
636600
3136
是要超越我剛剛
跟各位說的經驗法則──
跟各位說的經驗法則──
10:51
three to four times a week, 30 minutes.
203
639760
1896
每週三到四次，每次三十分鐘。
10:53
I want to understand
the optimum exercise prescription
the optimum exercise prescription
204
641680
5216
我想要了解最理想的
運動處方是什麼，
運動處方是什麼，
10:58
for you, at your age,
at your fitness level,
at your fitness level,
205
646920
3976
針對你，根據你的年齡、
你的健康程度、
你的健康程度、
11:02
for your genetic background,
206
650920
1896
你的基因背景，
11:04
to maximize the effects of exercise today
207
652840
3776
來把今天的運動效應給最大化，
11:08
and also to improve your brain
and protect your brain the best
and protect your brain the best
208
656640
5296
同時把改善及保護
你的大腦做到最好，
你的大腦做到最好，
11:13
for the rest of your life.
209
661960
1776
讓你一生都能受益。
11:15
But it's one thing to talk about exercise,
and it's another to do it.
and it's another to do it.
210
663760
4056
但，「談」運動是一回事，
「做」運動是另一回事。
「做」運動是另一回事。
11:19
So I'm going to invoke my power
as a certified exercise instructor,
as a certified exercise instructor,
211
667840
3736
所以，我要實行我身為
認證運動指導員的權力，
認證運動指導員的權力，
11:23
to ask you all to stand up.
212
671600
1576
請各位都站起來。
11:25
(Laughter)
213
673200
1856
（笑聲）
11:27
We're going to do
just one minute of exercise.
just one minute of exercise.
214
675080
2256
我們只運動一分鐘。
11:29
It's call-and-response,
just do what I do, say what I say,
just do what I do, say what I say,
215
677360
3496
它類似「呼喊和回應」，
只要做我做的動作，說我說的話，
只要做我做的動作，說我說的話，
11:32
and make sure you don't punch
your neighbor, OK?
your neighbor, OK?
216
680880
3136
然後小心不要打到旁邊的人，好嗎？
11:36
Music!
217
684040
1216
音樂！
11:37
(Upbeat music)
218
685280
1616
（快樂的音樂）
11:38
Five, six, seven, eight,
it's right, left, right, left.
it's right, left, right, left.
219
686920
4496
五、六、七、八，右、左、右、左。
11:43
And I say, I am strong now.
220
691440
4696
我說，我現在很強壯。
11:48
Let's hear you.
221

12:00
WS: New move -- uppercut, right and left.
226
708280
2616
溫蒂：新動作── 上勾拳，右、左。
12:02
I am inspired now. You say it!
227
710920
3896
我現在受到鼓舞。換你們說！
12:06
Audience: I am inspired now.
228
714840
3336
觀眾：我現在受到鼓舞。
12:10
WS: Last move -- pull it down,
right and left, right and left.
right and left, right and left.
229
718200
3896
溫蒂：最後一個動作──
拉下來，右、左、右、左。
拉下來，右、左、右、左。
12:14
I say, I am on fire now! You say it.
230
722120
4776
我說，我現在如火燃燒！換你們說。
12:18
Audience: I am on fire now.
231
726920
3296
觀眾：我現在如火燃燒。
12:22
WS: And done! OK, good job!
232
730240

（掌聲）
12:30
Thank you.
234
738000
1616
謝謝。
12:31
I want to leave you with one last thought.
235
739640
2776
最後我想留給各位一個想法，
12:34
And that is, bringing
exercise in your life
exercise in your life
236
742440
3456
就是把運動帶入你的生活
12:37
will not only give you
a happier, more protective life today,
a happier, more protective life today,
237
745920
4976
不僅讓你今天更快樂、更受保護，
12:42
but it will protect your brain
from incurable diseases.
from incurable diseases.
238
750920
4576
還能保護你的大腦，
不受無法治癒的疾病所侵害。
不受無法治癒的疾病所侵害。
12:47
And in this way it will change
the trajectory of your life
the trajectory of your life
239
755520
5136
這麼一來就能改變你人生的軌道，
12:52
for the better.
240
760680
1216
朝著更好的方向。
12:53
Thank you very much.

ABOUT THE SPEAKER
Wendy Suzuki - Neuroscientist, authorWendy Suzuki is researching the science behind the extraordinary, life-changing effects that physical activity can have on the most important organ in your body: your brain.
Why you should listen
Dr. Wendy A. Suzuki is a Professor of Neural Science and Psychology in the Center for Neural Science at New York University, an author, storyteller and fitness instructor. She received her undergraduate degree in physiology and human anatomy at the University of California, Berkeley in 1987 studying with Prof. Marion C. Diamond, a leader in the field of brain plasticity. She went on to earn her PhDin Neuroscience from U.C. San Diego in 1993 and completed a post-doctoral fellowship at the National Institutes of Health before accepting her faculty position at New York University in 1998.
Suzuki's major research interest continues to be brain plasticity. She is best known for her extensive work studying areas in the brain critical for our ability to form and retain new long-term memories. More recently, her work has focused on understanding how aerobic exercise can be used to improve learning, memory and higher cognitive abilities in humans. She is passionate about teaching, about exercise (intenSati) and about supporting and mentoring up and coming scientists.
