Absolutely! Exercise in general will do wonders for you. Right now I play bball 2-3x/week, and on off days I power lift. Some days ball is at 6:45am and others it's at 7pm. It's funny because the morning bball wakes me up and evening bball helps me sleep at night.

Yeah physical activity is just part of our bodies.

I used to do taichi/noob-wushu in college. It's a funny "sport" because it's oh so smooth and slow but it makes use of so many forgotten muscles that I left my first session drained. I never got high on weed, but that afternoon I was high as fuck.

Some schools experimented doing some taichi first in the morning. Lots of kids said they felt better, calmer and more focused mentally.
