How to Boost Brainpower

Scenario: "Dude, we always boost our brain. Yay!" Not when you're watching television. When you're watching TV, your brain goes into a passive state. It's like you're putting your brain in the refrigerator for later use. Remember: your brain is like a muscle. The more you train it, the more you'll boost your brainpower juice. The less you use it, the weaker it gets. In one study:

People watching television had increased alpha brain waves -- their brains were in a passive state, as if they were just sitting in the dark. No wonder TV watching has been tied to low achievement.

And no, we're not saying don't watch TV. We're saying this: If you want a sexier brain, limit your daily TV intake consumption.

Limit TV. Boost brainpower.
