Exercising should always be part of the daily routine.

It is said that exercise can improve blood brain barrier due to its anti inflammatory effects thus, constricting inflammatory compounds/cells/chemicals into the brain. Modulatory Exercise should be a way of life.

Perfect. The more important book to humanity is spark, from John Ratey. Someday people will understand the power of MOVEMENT!!!!

Brains in adulthood can really be modified...and MOVEMENT is the best way to improve the modifications, cause MOVEMENT is the thing which can cause the major production of BDNF!!!

HOW EXCITING!! I am sure if you have, or you have someone in your life who has Parkinsons Disease, you may want to give this lady a Gold Medal for research! And how sad we need a scientist to suggest exercise is the best medicine for ALL medical challenges. What would happen to our world if we all committed to be fit and strong?

The real problema currently is that people always procastinate not to go out and get exercise which does not take a lot of time. The excuses limit us a lot and does not make us see beyond of how we can and sacrifices make us success.

A good goal! I appreciate the advantage of rhythmic association in exercise personally, but was it tested and measured against a non-cadence control? The Parkinson's state of mental cognition may no longer be wired such that cadence is significant. Also, I question why invest in motor bike to replace human on the tandem with the Parkinson's inflicted person, when we have millions of people who could benefit from the cycling — plus the benefit of mutual supportive rapport between two bikers is obvious? Maybe it is not as fast as the designer's initial performance, but cadence pedaling as fast as you can is beneficial and progressively increasing with practice — beneficial at any rate. I'd suggest designing the bikes to generate electricity, pump water, or operate a clay pot throwing wheel for an artist, etc. allowing the disabled to feel constructive and integrated during the therapy.
