More than 20% of adults over the age of 55 experience depression, anxiety, and cognitive decline as they age. Shannel Elhelou, PsyD and Ryan Glatt, MS, CPT, NBC-HWC, however, are firm believers in six core pillars for combating cognitive decline. They're called the Vital 6 and consist of stress management, sleep, nutrition, exercise, socialization, and cognitive training. By focusing on interventions that most people can do at home, Dr. Elhelou and Ryan are making cognitive wellness accessible. Ryan Glatt is even the Director of the FitBrain Program at PNI, which combines brain and body training with "exergaming." Tune in and discover how these Brain Wellness & Lifestyle Program experts are helping patients optimize their own Vital 6.
A PNI Minute: Exercise is very important for brain health. A multimodal approach including aerobic exercise, resistance (strength) training, and neuro-motor (skill or motor) training is ideal. To help stave off cognitive decline, Ryan and his team work with clients in the FitBrain gym using dual tasking and clinical exergaming also called serious gaming that engages both body and brain simultaneously. Some people call this a clinical arcade. Whether individuals have mobility impairments, physical impairments, or cognitive impairments, there is always something that can be done to customize an exercise program for them. Ryan Glatt is a Certified Personal Trainer and a National Board-Certified Health & Wellness Coach with over a decade of experience. He focuses his exercise and health coaching strategies on brain health, personalizing lifestyle interventions for individuals with brain and cognitive health goals. Ryan is a Brain Health Coach and the Director of the FitBrain Program at Pacific Neuroscience Institute.Ryan has experience working with a wide variety of populations and currently focuses on individuals with cognitive concerns and neurological conditions, with an emphasis on preventing and slowing cognitive decline. He enjoys working in multidisciplinary teams and helping individuals to build their own team of allied health and medical professionals on their brain health journeys. Ryan specializes in constructing “brain healthy exercise programs” based on the most recent scientific literature while helping to address other important aspects of a brain healthy lifestyle, such as sleep and cognitive stimulation.
Ryan Glatt is a certified personal trainer, a national board-certified health and wellness coach, and director of FItBrain at PNI. He's also a big believer in the idea that just getting on a treadmill isn't enough to keep our brains and bodies in top condition as we age. We must “dual task,” Glatt says. That means finding activities that challenge our minds and bodies at the same time, like dance or pickleball. Glatt, whose own energy and enthusiasm is infectious, is a big fan of video games that make you move. He got fit (and came out of his shell) years ago by playing Dance Dance Revolution, which requires both deft movement and undivided attention. Dual tasking is crucial as we age because it can slow dementia. Glatt has pored over the research and is convinced of that. It can also help us retain our balance, thereby preventing falls, one of the biggest causes of injury in older adults. This high-energy conversation with Ryan will show you how important dual tasking is, and we bet it will get you up and moving by the end.

He focuses his exercise and health coaching strategies on brain health, personalizing lifestyle interventions for individuals with brain and cognitive health goals. Ryan is a Brain Health Coach and the Director of the FitBrain Program at Pacific Neuroscience Institute.Ryan developed and currently directs the FitBrainSM program with an expertise in combining brain and body training (also called dual-tasking) through “serious exergaming” (purposeful, goal-oriented games that involve physical movement), which utilizes innovative technologies to train cognitive and physical skills simultaneously. After losing weight and rehabilitating from a concussion at a younger age through the popular game Dance Dance Revolution, Ryan's passion for “games for good” has continued into the realm of brain health, and he actively consults for several technology companies in clinical exergaming, gamified rehabilitation, and dual-task training. Ryan has a specialized interest in research in this area, and regularly collaborates with other researchers.
Summary Brain health coach Ryan Glatt shares his insights on the importance of collaboration between rehabilitation clinicians and the use of motivational interviewing in promoting meaningful and purposeful exercise routines for brain health. He recommends a minimum of 150 minutes of varied exercise per week, emphasizing that the total amount of exercise is more important than the type. Glatt also discusses the benefits of dual-task learning, racket sports, gamification, virtual reality, and activities that incorporate visual spatial navigation for cognitive improvement. He highlights a systematic review that found significant improvements in processing speed and executive function in older adults who engaged in exercise for 52 hours over 6 to 12 months. Glatt also mentions the Brain Health Trainer course he created in collaboration with ACE and his plans for the future. Takeaways Collaboration between rehabilitation clinicians is essential for delivering better care to individuals. Motivational interviewing and understanding individual preferences are crucial for sustainable behavior change. Meaningful and purposeful activity should be incorporated into exercise routines. Exercise recommendations for brain health include a minimum of 150 minutes per week, a variety of exercise types, and a mix of low, moderate, and high intensity. Engaging in exercise for 52 hours over 6 to 12 months can lead to significant improvements in processing speed and executive function in older adults. The type of exercise doesn't matter as much as the total amount of exercise. Dual task learning, which involves engaging in activities that require simultaneous cognitive and physical load, can improve cognition and prevent falls. Racket sports, although lacking in research, are believed to be beneficial for brain health due to their requirement of hand-eye coordination, processing speed, and visuospatial skills. Gamification and virtual reality can enhance cognitive training by providing a goal, challenge, competition, reward, and novelty. Activities that incorporate visual spatial navigation, such as orienteering, can improve memory and working memory.

An interview with Ryan Glatt, Senior Brain Health Coach and Director of FitBrain at Pacific Neuroscience Institute Foundation.And often what I find in order to get towards a what we call a brain healthy exercise prescription, whether that's an individual who wants to prevent dementia, an individual with mild cognitive impairment or a person with Parkinson's disease, the prescription is that 150 to 300 minutes moderate to vigorous physical activity minimum per week, but also adding some variety. So you want some aerobic, you want some resistance training and you also want neuromotor.Ryan GlattBrain health coachingSpecialization in brain health Reason for specializing in brain healthDual taskingBrain healthy exercise prescriptionEvidence base linking exercise and brain healthWhole body of evidenceHealth & fitness industry trendsScientific accuracyReferral networks for linking brain health and exerciseAchieving optimal brain healthRole modelingDeveloping a scientific literacy skill sethttps://www.movetolivemore.com/https://www.linkedin.com/company/move-to-live-more@MovetoLiveMore
Most fitness professionals think of physical health when they think about the benefits of exercise. While it's very true exercise certainly improves physical health, more and more emerging research is highlighting the role exercise plays in brain health. In fact, much of this emerging research suggests exercise is as critical for the health of the brain, as it is for the body. Given rates of cognitive decline (and associated diseases) as well as the mental health crisis facing our nation, our guest in episode 94, Ryan Glatt, feels fitness professionals are well positioned to be on the front lines of improving brain health through exercise. In this conversation we'll dive into Ryan's interesting journey from aspiring physical therapist to the Pacific Neuroscience Institute where he is the director of the FitBrain Program, focusing on exercise protocols to improve brain health with a variety of populations. What's most striking about this discussion is how quickly significant improvements in brain health can manifest themselves. This allows fitness professionals to reposition their messaging around exercise outcomes to something more immediate clients can truly feel. The brain is the most important organ in the body and this conversation will definitely open your mind (pun intended) to the many possible ways to use exercise to improve brain health.Show Notes Page: https://www.wellnessparadoxpod.com/podcast/episode/94Our Guest: Ryan Glatt, MS, CPT, NBC-HWCRyan is a personal trainer and board-certified health coach with a specialty focus in brain health with over a decade of experience in the health & fitness industry.

This is Synapse #1. This episode is taking from podcast #132 with Ryan Glatt.
Exercise affects the brain in many ways. It increases heart rate, which pumps more oxygen to the brain. It aids the release of hormones which provide an excellent environment for the growth of brain cells. Exercise also promotes brain plasticity by stimulating growth of new connections between cells in many important cortical areas of the brain. Research from UCLA even demonstrated that exercise increased growth factors in the brain which makes it easier for the brain to grow new neuronal connections.Ryan Glatt is a psychometrist and Brain Health Coach at the Brain Health Center in the Pacific Neuroscience Institute.

Ryan Glatt, FAFS, BSc, Psychometrist & Brain Health Coach, talks about exercise science and how movement affects the brain. We dive into the optimization of brain health in exercise. Support the show (http://gf.me/u/w5fjfs)
Most of us are nutrition and supplement obsessed when it comes to increasing cognitive health, although exercise is at the top of the list for preventing cognitive decline, yet it's the least utilized. In this episode, guest Ryan Glatt breaks down how we can properly use exercise as a means to boost our brain health. Ryan also does a deep dive into what the heck the brain is in the first place, how it is deeply interconnected to the rest of the systems throughout your body, how exercise affects it, how to prevent cognitive decline and depression, and many other fascinating topics in relation to neuroscience. Ryan Glatt is a psychometrist and Brain Health Coach at the Brain Health Center in the Pacific Neuroscience Institute. With a strong background in exercise science and human health, Ryan develops curricula specifically targeted towards developing optimal brain health.

Exercise is a non-negotiable part of good health, but that doesn’t have to mean logging hours at the gym or forcing yourself to go on a run.There are so many benefits of movement that go far beyond the cardiovascular effects and weight management that are so often the focus of exercise. It’s actually an essential piece to maintaining prime cognitive function throughout life.On today’s Broken Brain Podcast, our host Dhru talks to Ryan Glatt, a personal trainer and brain-health coach with over a decade of experience in the health and fitness industry.

Exercise doesn’t just give you bigger muscles. It gives you a bigger brain. Scientists have measured brain volume in people who exercise and those who don’t. The exercisers had more. Why? Because movement challenges our minds. It keeps us sharp, especially as we age. And different activities strengthen different parts of our grey matter. Just like a healthy diet, a healthy exercise regimen is varied: some strength training, some resistance training, some aerobics. Don’t worry, you don’t have to work a Sudoku puzzle on an exercise bike to get the maximum benefit. Ryan Glatt, PNI’s Brain Health Coach, is a big fan of dance because it challenges cognition. It’s also how Ryan first got fit himself. A pudgy kid and avid video gamer, things completely changed when he discovered Dance Dance Revolution, a video game that made him move. Now, he’s an advocate for exercise. He gets a workout just talking about it. Give him a listen, and you’ll want to get up and dance, we promise For more information: pacificneuro.org | pacificbraintumor.org | (310) 829-8265

Ryan is a Brain Health Coach and Psychometrist working for the Pacific Brain Health Center. If you are unfamiliar with the concept of a brain health coach and don’t know what a psychometrist is, it’s because Ryan is at the forefront of an entirely new approach to training, movement, and exercise. Rather than of working with movement to create change in the body, Ryan’s research and work application is centered around how to create cognitive changes in the brain as a result of how we move our bodies. In other words, the movement protocols you engage with make targeted changes to how your brain works and improve specific cognitive functions. This has big implications for how we relate to and understand movement as a practice. We had a fascinating conversation dissecting some of the intricacies of Ryan’s work and experience, looking into what lead him into the unique and highly relevant field he is in now, the wide array of impact different movement strategies have on the many aspects of cognitive function, and how we can begin to reorganize our understanding of movement so we can use it not just for the health of our bodies, but also our brains. I loved digging into some of the science of brain health and it’s connection to movement, and Ryan brilliantly showcased the value of movement as a medium that goes far beyond expanding physical prowess. I hope you all enjoy this episode as much as I did recording it, and walk away a little more inspired and excited to get moving!

In previous podcast episodes, we have talked about ways to help with neuro-degenerative issues by utilizing special diets or functional medicine modalities. These are all great to improve brain function, but there are many other components to the process than just supplemental support and nutrition. Ryan Glatt has been feverishly studying cognitive neuroscience and has been incorporating what he has learned to improve neurofunction based off of different exercise or movement modalities. He has been incorporating the use of different cues for different types of brain function, along with various training types that are more catered to what the individual needs. An example of this would be keeping the overall heart rate exertion of someone with anxiety under 80%. It is these individualized training protocols that are needed to greatly enhance the movement capabilities of the people we work with.
