Guide Gymbros Were Right // overcoming trauma

[aguachento]

The Gymbros were right, weightlifting can help you cope with heartbreak and other social defeats.

Exercise wipes traumatic memories from the brain

You re not depressed... you just need to go lift a heavy rock

Exercise helped mice overcome traumatic memories and PTSD-like behaviors via growing new brain cells in the hippocampus.

You can boost new brain cell growth too through exercise, learning new things, socialising, quality sleep.

In mice: lifting rocks = fewer PTSD-like behaviors.

In humans: lifting weights = better stress resilience, mood, and memory.

So yeah… when gymbros said “the iron heals,” they weren’t wrong.
