Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The aim of this Special Issue is to provide information on the effects of Physical Activity, Sedentary lifestyle and Fitness on cognitive function and well-being. This is a topic that is currently of concern to the scientific community, since it is a process that extends throughout people's lives. It is undoubted that the practice of organized physical activity (controlling the frequency, duration, intensity and type of exercise) is related to well-being, healthy lifestyles and improved health. Sedentary behavior is influenced by personal beliefs, physical characteristics, and other related behaviors (frequency or regular participation in physical activities) and its negative effects on general health are also a source of concern. Fitness can be considered a physiological state of well-being that reduces the risk of hypokinetic diseases, and it is a basis for participation in sports and allows for good health to complete the tasks of daily life. The focus has been recently placed on the relationship between physical activity, lifestyle and fitness on cognitive processes in different populations. Cognitive processes include mental processes that contribute to perception, memory, intelligence and action. The present Special Issue will accept original research and systematic reviews.
