Another win for exercising.

It's crazy to me how many people have miserable health, complain about their body and mental state endlessly, but still put up any roadblock they can think of to avoid exercising of any form.

I have chronic fatigue problems, which exercise exacerbates. I swim 3 times a week, but have to carefully regulate the intensity or it triggers post-exertional malaise.

The exercise is important for my general health but it isn't positively correlated with my cognitive functioning. Quite the opposite.

I think you need to provide perspective on your experiences when you don't swim 3x a week. Over a valid period,say, ~3mo or so.
