Übungen, die Gehirn und Körper trainieren, helfen bei der Bewältigung von ADHS-bedingten Schwierigkeiten. Eine randomisierte klinische Studie (RCT) ergab, dass ein 12-wöchiges integriertes kognitiv-motorisches Trainingsprogramm die ADHS-Symptome bei Kindern reduziert und wichtige exekutive Funktionen verbessert, insbesondere die Hemmungskontrolle und das unmittelbare Arbeitsgedächtnis.

Exercise that trains brain and body helps managing ADHD-related difficulties

Children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) may benefit from exercise that challenges both body and mind. A randomized clinical trial (RCT) found that a 12-week integrated cognitive-motor exercise program reduced core ADHD symptoms while also improving key executive functions, especially inhibitory control and immediate working memory. Standard aerobic exercise also eased inattention and hyperactivity-impulsivity, while the combined training produced broader cognitive benefits and higher parental satisfaction. These findings suggested that structured movement paired with cognitive demands could offer a safe, practical, and engaging non-drug strategy for managing ADHD-related difficulties for children in their daily life.

It feels like most autism and adhd research is only aimed at kids with these conditions. As an adult with autism and adhd I always felt left out of any interventions.
