Abusive teens ‘out of
control’ at yacht club
• By Sarla Donovan
THE Christchurch Yacht Club
was overrun by more than 100
teenagers last week, prompting an
emergency meeting.
Club commodore Richard
Ineson said some of the committee
met on Wednesday night after
crowds of young people using the
club’s pontoon ignored requests
to move out of the way.
Mr Ineson said the situation
had been “out of control.”
“We couldn’t even drive our IRBs
with outboards up to the pontoon
there were so many people in the
water and they wouldn’t get out.”
No matter what he said, the
young people simply “gave . . . the
middle finger” and ignored him,
Mr Ineson told the Bay Harbour
News. “They were really abusive.”
The club’s pontoon in Moncks
Bay has been used by the public
for the past 25 years without any
problems, but hot weather and
school holidays have made it a
popular spot with teenagers this
summer.
Mr Ineson said he was reluctant
to call police on Wednesday because
everyone in the area would
have to have been moved, including
families.
“It was very stressful.”
The club had never had problems
before, said Mr Ineson, but
the influx this summer had been
creating issues.
An external tap on the clubhouse
was vandalised last week
and litter is regularly left strewn
around.
The club has members-only
rights over the area, from the
carpark to the slipway but it has
always left it open for the public
to use.
“We want the community to
use it and respect it,” said
former club commodore Jo
Hooker.
She said people needed to be
responsible.
On Thursday Mr Ineson closed
the area between 9am-3.30pm for
a regatta but said he had had to
police it. “If I wasn’t there, they
would have climbed the rope and
ignored the sign.”

from the editor’s desk
THERE’S ONE nice, happy ending story
on page 11 today.
Hank, the border collie cross we
featured over Christmas has found a
home, in Redcliffs.
Hank was on our front page promoting
the Dogwatch Sanctuary Trust’s 2018 calendar. He wasn’t in it
– only canines that have been rehomed make the cut.
Hank had been at Dogwatch since October, and the people
who run the deserving organisation needed a family with the
patience to take him – Hank has a few quirks.
That’s not uncommon in dogs that end up in the pound;
they’ve usually been pushed from pillar to post before they get
there.
So a new start for the two year-old, who also has a new name:
Gus. Good stuff. – Barry Clarke

Complaint leads to Sumner bin clean up
TIDY: Bins along Sumner beach were tidied yesterday after
the city council acted on residents’ complaints.

• By Sarla Donovan
OVERFLOWING rubbish bins
along Sumner’s esplanade have
been cleaned up after the eyesore
was exposed in the media last
week.
Sumner Community Residents’
Association manager Liza Sparrow
went public last
week with concerns
about bins not being
emptied frequently
enough as hot weather

the beach.
Yesterday, the bins
were looking tidy with
no evidence of overflow.
But that’s not the end of the
matter. In a public forum at the
Linwood-Central-Heathcote
Community Board meeting on
Monday, Ms Sparrow and local
business owner, Donna Henderson,
called on the city council to
take action and put a long-term
plan in place “to resolve the ongoing
situation of inadequate rubbish
collection in the Sumner and
Taylors Mistake area.”
Ms Sparrow and Ms Henderson
asked for rubbish bins to be
emptied more often during the
summer months. They are currently
scheduled for one collection
per day, Sunday-Friday, and two

collections on Saturday.
They also asked that weather
reports be considered when
scheduling additional services,
for more bins or larger bins to be
put in place, especially in high-use
areas such as Cave Rock, and for
the city council to consider having
only one contractor responsible
for all areas – the beach, park and
footpath areas.
Currently there are different
contracts allocated for the beach
and street.
The board has asked city council
staff for advice on the issues
raised.
Board member Darrell Latham
said it was a “long-term issue, not

Fire rages, homes at risk
a ‘recent hot day’ issue.”
In other developments, Canterbury
medical officer of health
Alistair Humphrey has written to
Dr Latham to offer his assistance.
One of the roles of the medical
officer of health under the Litter
Act 1979 is to ensure the city
council empties bins regularly.
Dr Latham said he had taken up
the offer and asked Dr Humphrey
to write to the city council regarding
its responsibilities under the
act.
And the residents’ association is
introducing Adopt a Patch, where
residents identify areas important
to them and work in teams to
keep these areas clean and tidy.
Ms Sparrow said the association
is actively supporting local
business initiatives like Plastic
Free Sumner and Joe’s Garage’s
offer of a coffee or hot chocolate
in exchange for a bucket full of
rubbish.
“Currently 100 buckets of rubbish
have been returned since Friday
and only about 40 per cent of
people even wanted a hot drink,”
Ms Sparrow said.

Spotlight on seafarer welfare
• By Sarla Donovan
ALMOST 10,000 seafarers
visit Lyttelton Port each
year, a figure set to increase
when cruise ships return in
2019.
Just who should
be responsible for
providing support
for seafarers who
come ashore will
be discussed at a
city council meeting
tomorrow.
The chairman
of the Lyttelton Seafarers’
Centre charitable trust
John McLister, is seeking
city council backing for a
port levy on visiting ships.
He wants the city council’s
support for Lyttelton
Port of Christchurch to
implement a levy on ships
to fund longer opening

hours and a full-time welfare
officer.
Currently, about 25
centre volunteers provide
currency exchange, Wi-Fi,
phone and welfare
services from
7-10pm Monday-
Friday but Mr
McLister said that
was not enough to
meet demand.
The centre has
been operating
out of a temporary
building at 18
Norwich Quay since
2015, after having lost its
previous building in the
earthquakes.
LPC sponsor its current
operations but in July last
year, LPC chief executive
Peter Davie indicated they
did not support a ship levy.
Mr McLister said about
TEMPORARY:
The Lyttelton
Seafarers’
Centre needs
more money
to be able
to expand
its services
and wants
a port levy
introduced.
3000 people visited the
centre last year and it
needed to be open 50 hours
a week to meet demand.
He said the city council
has a moral obligation to
provide for seafarer welfare
under the Maritime
Labour Convention, which
New Zealand is a signatory
to.
A port levy was the best
way to meet that obligation,
he said.
But legal advice provided
to the city council suggested
there was no compulsion
on LPC or the city
council to support such a
move, as the convention
was voluntary.
The matter will be discussed
as part of a Banks
Peninsula Community
Board report to the city
council tomorrow.

School, 26 Nayland St and next to Sumner Surf Life Saving Club. PHOTOS: MARTIN HUNTER
A SKATE park between
Ferrymead and Sumner is a
step closer with the release of a
shortlist with four suitable sites.
They are Sumner beach next
to the Surf Life Saving Club,
Scott Park in Ferrymead, the
old Redcliffs School grounds on
Main Rd, and the former Marine
Tavern site at 26 Nayland St,
Sumner.
The four were chosen from a
list of 57.
Public consultation on the sites
will take place from January 29
to February 26 with a decision
from the Linwood-Central-
Heathcote Community Board
likely in April.
Sumner Green and Skate
group member Liza Sparrow said
it was “really thrilled” with the
sites. They all had merit, she said,
but the group would continue to
support a permanent site within
Sumner.
“It works well with the surf
and skate culture, is also good
for local business and it adds
vibrancy to the area.”
Board member Tim Lindley
said he had no particular preference.
“They would each offer quite
a different experience. It’s a case
of putting these out for consultation
– they’ve all got pluses and
minuses.”
Board member Darrell Latham
said the Sumner community had
warmed to the Nayland St site.
“Sumner locals have wanted
centrality to the village, a place
parents have easy access to. I
think it’s a good site. (Redcliffs
School) also has advantages
being central to the Bays area
and accessible to all residents.”
Matt Cockcroft lives next door
to the former Redcliffs School
site on Main Rd.
He said he would be happy for
a skate park to go there provided
it was in the middle of the
park, visible from the road and
residents could have input into
the design.

$800k going into gravel roads
Trucking firm
says it’s still
not enough
• By Sarla Donovan
ALMOST $800,000 is being
spent on new chip for gravel
roads on Banks Peninsula this
financial year.
But the manager of the peninsula’s
largest trucking firm,
Banks Peninsula Transport,
says that isn’t
enough.
Rex Gebbie
wrote to
Banks Peninsula
Community
Board
member Pam
Richardson
Rex Gebbie
late last year
about poorly
maintained
metal roads and overgrown
trees creating a hazard for his
drivers.
The board asked city council
staff to report back on Mr Gebbie’s
concerns by the end of this
month.
City council manager city
streets maintenance Mark Pinner
told Bay Harbour News the
BIG TRUCKS: The city council is putting $800,000 into gravel
roads on the peninsula but a major trucking firm says it is still
not enough.
360km of unsealed roads had
gravel added each year “based
on condition and need.”
Over the 2017/18 financial
year “approximately $780,000
will be invested in the network.
Unsealed roads are also regularly
graded and maintained,
and there is an increasing focus
on maintaining the associated
water tables to minimise the
ongoing maintenance issues
and costs,” said Mr Pinner.
Maintenance work was “typically
reactive” to significant
weather or other events and
seasonal demand, he said.
But Mr Gebbie said the city
council was not responding
quickly enough.
“Like that slip in Church Bay
from September – stuff just isn’t
getting done, they’re not reacting
fast enough. There’s still
slips over here that they haven’t
fixed, roads have slips on the
outside of them, and nothing’s
been touched.”
He also said gravel was being
laid in a single layer which
didn’t give sufficient cover.
“These roads are pretty
unique and they need attention.
You just can’t put one stone
depth of shingle on there and
then put a grader through six
months later and grade that one
stone off again. It’s not getting
enough on it,” Mr Gebbie
said.
He said the city council was
doing “only what they had to,”
which wasn’t enough.
“We need one deep spread
on these roads, a really good
coating.”
Another concern was overgrown
trees encroaching onto
roads. A lot of the peninsula’s
roads were “totally illegal”
because of the trees sticking out,
Mr Gebbie said.
Mr Pinner said vegetation was
expected to be 300mm behind
the water table/channel adjacent
to the road, or 2m back where
there was none.

THIEVES HAVE targeted
vintage record store and cafe
Spooky Boogies in Lyttelton,
making off with a rare poster for
Nick Cave’s pre-Bad Seeds band,
The Birthday Party.
Spooky Boogies was broken
into last week and the poster
stolen, along with some records,
beanies, cushion covers and a
small amount of cash.
The 80cm x 100cm screen
printed image is more than
30-years-old and was part of a
group of posters being auctioned
on behalf of experimental musician
and writer, Bruce Russell,
who manages the design programme
at Ara Polytechnic.
“It’s very rare. I doubt there’s
another one in New Zealand,”
said store co-owner Tessa Brodie.
She said the thief must have
been local as they appeared to
know the place well.
“They got around the alarm;
they knew they could get in at a
certain place, they knew where
the till was and they targeted
certain things. Some of what they
took had only been in here for a
week.”
The Birthday Party poster was
from a 1983 promotional tour of
New Zealand and was the “pick
of the bunch”, said Spooky Boogies
co-owner Oscar Guerrero.
Police have since visited and
taken fingerprints.
If anybody has information,
they can message the Spooky

aim was to have a banquet “where
everything comes from our local
harbour area. Last year we had a
lamb and llama evening.”
The day before, Creative Sampler
will offer 45min cooking
workshops at the Lyttelton Recreation
Centre.
New Zealand movies feature in
the film programme, although the
first screening on February 2 is the
Japanese animated flick, Nausicaa
of the Valley of the Wind, by director
Hayao Miyazaki.
The following week is Taika Waititi’s
Hunt for the Wilderpeople,
followed by quirky Christchurchmade
documentary Pecking Order
on February 16, and another Taika
Waititi classic, Boy (above), on
February 23.
On Sunday, February 18, at
Trinity Hall, artists from different
disciplines will present a
collaborative show called Strange
Bedfellows.
Entry to the films will be $10.
Entertainment starts from 6.30pm
with movies screening at 8.45pm.

Create you own work
of art at Godley Head
• By Sarla Donovan
A POP-UP print-making studio
will open on Saturday in the
Sergeants Nest, a former dining
hall at Godley Head.
Artist Bridget Allen is
running a series of public
workshops in the space, where
people can make their own
drypoint print.
The process is a user-friendly
one for beginners, Ms Allen
said, where even a simple drawing
can be transformed into a
“really nice” print.
“The intention is to get people
up to the Godley Head area to
do their own drawing of what
they find interesting, whether it
is the military equipment, the
forts or the natural landscape
and view. They take that drawing
into the mess and make a
print.”
Although Ms Allen is from
New Brighton, she frequently
enjoys mountain biking in the
area.

Fire rages, homes at risk
Participants in the printmaking
workshops will be
able to take their size A6 print
home, but a copy will be kept
and included in a group exhibition
in the week before Anzac
Day.
Ms Allen said she was keen
to use art to stimulate curiosity
in the area and give people another
reason to go up and look
around.
Workshops run on alternate
Saturdays from February 3 to
April 13, and every Thursday
from February 8 to April 19.
The Thursday workshops will
be suitable for groups, with St
Andrew’s College and Cathedral
Grammar already booking
slots, Ms Allen said

Market Comment
Welcome back to 2018. I hope you’ve had a refreshing break and are feeling enthusiastic for the
year ahead! With such a hot summer, it’s been an amazing holiday period for most with time at the
beach an absolute necessity anywhere in the country!
We’re excited to be back into the swing of things and have had a busy start to the year in our office.
Interest rates are predicted to stay low and lending restrictions are easing up for first home
buyers, keeping our in-house financial advisor Antonia McAtamney particularly busy. The
Christchurch re-build still has plenty of momentum with a number of major projects due to either
start or be completed in 2018. Net migration is up, employment levels are stable and the economy
still appears to be in good shape under a new government, all creating a favourable environment
to buy and sell. It will be interesting to watch the impending discussions around the purchase
of residential property rules for overseas persons, as this may significantly affect the ability for
those not holding citizenship, or permanent NZ residency, who do not spend enough of their time
residing in NZ, to purchase a property. We will keep you up to date with the changing legislation
here, keep an eye out for updates on our page.

to individual members of the

gifts. 255 gifts were collected and
gratefully received by Matthew
Mark CEO of the Christchurch
City Mission. He talked about the
increase in the uptake of the services
offered by the City Mission year on
year, and the fantastic community
support they have been receiving
to meet these demands. Thank you
to everyone who donated a gift,
particularly all the administration
staff at local schools who helped
spread the word, and collect the gifts.
You are a very generous community, so thank you.

Clock tower repairs
to start in April
• By Sarla Donovan
THE ICONIC Scarborough
clock tower will continue
to be stuck in a time warp
until April.
The clock was vandalised
in June last year, its glass
face damaged in several
places and the clock controller
broken.
Since then, the hands
haven’t moved and holes
remain.
Banks Peninsula Community
Board member
Darrell Latham said it
“wasn’t a good look” for
Sumner.
“Scarborough is a very
popular destination and
the clock tower is well
photographed. It is a really
beautiful clock tower which
survived the earthquake
and is an integral part of
the heritage of Sumner and
Christchurch.”
City council head of
parks Brent Smith said
construction work to fix
the clock and tower would
commence in March/April.
The repairs would address
earthquake damage
to the tower as well as the
damage resulting from the
vandalism.
“Some additional maintenance,
non-earthquake
related repairs will be also
be undertaken.”
The cost won’t be known
until tenders are received,
said Mr Smith.
Dr Latham said it was
“great news” the clock
would be fixed.
The clock and tower were
donated to the Borough
of Sumner by Richard
Edward Green, to perpetuate
the name of his father
Edmund Green, a pioneer

Hank happy in new home
• By Julia Evans
CHRISTMAS came early
for Hank the border collie
cross.
After featuring as poster
boy for Dogwatch Sanctuary
Trust’s 2018 calendar
and more than two months
at the trust, the twoyear-old
was adopted on
December 24.
He starred on the front
page of the Bay Harbour
News over Christmas.
So he now has a new
home in Redcliffs – and
a new name. He is now
called Gus.
His new owner said he
had come along way in a
short space of time – describing
him as a “dolphin”
in the water.
“He is very affectionate
and gaining more confidence
as he gets to know
the neighbourhood. He is
very responsive to commands
and appears a quick
and willing learner.”
“I think further down
the track when he is completely
chilled he will enjoy
his new home.”
The bright, lovely and
playful animal, according
to trust manager Pam
Howard, had been without
a home since October.
Mrs Howard said many
people had wanted to
adopt Gus, but just weren’t
a right fit.
Gus had been at the city
council pound before arriving
at the trust, and had
some “quirks” she said.
She described Gus as
“resource guarder” – a dog
that growls and snarls at
other animals and people
to stay away from an object
it might be guarding.
“He just needs an owner
that understands when

dogs have quirks you work
with them and you don’t
set them up to fail,” Mrs
Howard said.
Cats & dogs come first
at this ‘one-stop-shop’
When it comes to caring for cats and
dogs, Kimmy’s Cats & K9’s in Bromley
has it covered. The range of services
they offer includes boarding for cats
and dogs, grooming for cats and dogs
and doggy day care, with owner Kim
Vincent and her staff all passionate
about animals and their welfare.

some of the doggy day care pooches.
“Our motto is ‘Animals will always
come first’, and we always greet them on
arrival before their owners,” says Kim.
The cattery accommodates 15 cats in a
warm and sunny open-plan cattery, 120
dogs in the extensive boarding facilities,
and 40 dogs in doggy day care, a service
that Kim says has become very popular.
As well, full grooming is provided for
both cats and dogs.
“With all the services we offer, we’re
really a one-stop-shop,” she says.
Kim and her husband live on the
premises, so owners boarding their
animals at Kimmy’s Cats & K9’s can go
away on holiday knowing their precious
pets are safe and secure, 24 hours a day.

In addition to running her business,
Kim is involved in rescuing and

come from various situations, including
the rescue organisations, or even from
people who can no longer care for their
pet.
“I’m helping people and pets get

It’s chill-out time at the cattery for
British Blue, Monstar.
Kimmy’s are open Monday to Friday
6am-6pm, weekends and public

Tutors’ commitment brings
results for students
A genuine commitment to helping
students achieve in education and concern
for what happens to them are what brings
the results for children tutored at Kip
McGrath Ferrymead, says franchise owner
Helen Hudson.
“As they progress through the sessions we
see them blossom and grow in confidence
with their learning and that’s so rewarding,”
Helen says.
The other key factors that set Kip McGrath
apart and contribute to students’ success are
that all tutors have to be qualified teachers,
and that students have the same tutor every
time they attend, Helen says.
“This allows the tutors to build a rapport
with their students. They work on an
individualised programme within a small
group of three to five students.”
Communication with parents is another
important aspect, Helen points
out.
“We have to be meeting the
needs of the children as the
parents see it, as well as what
we see is needed.”
Kip McGrath Ferrymead
has six tutors offering students
from Year 1-13 tutoring in
maths and English – covering
a broad spectrum of spelling,
writing and reading, with
the tutors fully conversant
with NCEA requirements.
Chemistry, Physics and Biology
along with English and Maths
tutoring is available for Year
11, 12 and 13 students.
“With the senior students
we work alongside them, but
they are really the leader of
the lesson, which is tailormade
to their needs,” Helen
says.
There is also a focus on
children with learning
difficulties, such as dyslexia,
and for accelerant students,
who need extra challenges.
Each tutoring session lasts one
hour 20 minutes, with about six different
activities included each time. Sessions are
run outside school hours, either before or
after school, with most students attending
once a week.
“We also offer one-on-one tutoring for
adult students, who may need to improve
their English or maths skills for work they
want to apply for.”
There are several funding subsidies
Kip McGrath Ferrymead franchise owner Helen
Hudson helping a student
available for Kip McGrath tutoring.
Registered Ngai Tahu members receive
some funding, as do registered members
of the Rotorua-based Tauhara No. 2 Trust.
Fletchers also provide funding subsidies for
family members of their employees.
Free assessments are offered, and students
can enroll at any time of the year.

Fitch wins Corsair Classic duathlon
SPORTS
CHAMPION: Sumner’s David Fitch won the Olympic distance
duathlon in a time of 2hr 21min 21sec.
• By Gordon Findlater
TRIATHLETES AND duathletes
from the bays area were among
the winners at the Corsair Classic
on Sunday.
Sumner’s David Fitch showed
his class on the undulating course
to win the Olympic distance
duathlon in a time of 2hr 21min
21sec, while Christchurch’s Amy
Manning won the women’s race
in 2hr 39min 5sec.
Legendary coach and Sumner
silver fox, John Hellemans, put
in a solid effort in the Olympic
distance triathlon to win the 65-
69 age group title in a time of 2hr
42min 22sec, well ahead of some
much younger competition.
Morgan Flanagan, of
Governors Bay, won the under-15
girls short course triathlon in
57min 18sec, ahead of Allanah
McGuiness in third, also from
Governors Bay. Riley Flanagan
finished fourth overall in the
short course triathlon and second
in the 15-17 boys age group.
The event attracted some of
the country’s top triathletes,
as Christchurch hosted the
Triathlon New Zealand national
championships for the first time.
Close to 400 triathletes and
duathletes competed at the
selection event, with some
looking to push their case for
spots at the ITU world triathlon
series final at the Gold Coast
in September. It was also the
primary selection event for

the NZ team to compete at
the duathlon 2018 ITU world
championships in Odense,
Denmark, in July.
“We’ve been racing on and off
at Corsair Bay for a long time. We
reinstated it last year and people
loved it so much, they said why
don’t you try to get the national
champs. We applied for it and we
got it,” said event organiser John
Newsom.
The setting for the Corsair
Classic event makes it one of the
most unique and challenging
Olympic distance triathlons in
the world.
After completing the 1500m
swim, the competitors ran to
the bottom car park at Corsair
Bay and then completed a hilly
40km ride around the harbour
to Charteris Bay and back before
finishing with a 10km run to
Lyttelton and back.
“The feedback was just
incredible. The North Islanders
coming down said it’s a very
different race because not
all races are that hard,” said
Newsom.
“There’s some great race tracks
around the world but you’d be
really pressed to find a more
challenging course in terms of
the ups and downs.”
The scorching summer almost
caused a last minute logistical
nightmare for Newsom. Record
high water temperatures on the
peninsula meant wetsuits were
almost banned from the race.
“The cut off temperature for
wetsuits is 22 deg C,” he said.
YOUNGSTER: Governors Bay’s Allanah McGuiness finished
third in the under-15 short course triathlon.
LEGEND: Sumner’s John Hellemans crosses the
line to win the 65-69 age group in the Olympic
distance triathlon.
BIG EFFORT: Morgan Flanagan (left),
of Governors Bay, won the under-15
short course triathlon in 57min 18sec.
Christchurch’s Alex Reiser finished fourth
overall in the Olympic distance triathlon.

supporting
women and
children in need
Rotary clubs, The Warehouse
stores and women’s refuge
organisations around the
country have combined in a
massive, logistical project to
bring a bit of cheer into the
lives of women and families in
need of a lift.
The project, now in its fourth
year, involves The Warehouse
stores inviting customers and
well-wishers to leave gifts. The
Warehouse tops up the collection
and individual Rotary
clubs deliver the gifts to the
refuges.
At a local level, The Warehouse
Eastgate collects the
gifts and Ferrymead Rotary
delivers them to the Te Whare
Hauora refuge.
That process is replicated all
over New Zealand. Where possible,
The Warehouse stores,
Rotary clubs and women’s
refuges are matched by geographical
location – with the
aim of keeping things locally
relevant.
There were so many gifts
at The Warehouse, Eastgate
they could hardly fit in a car
boot, and there will be more to
follow. Some were huge, some
very tiny. Other Rotary clubs
in Christchurch have been
delivering gifts from other The
Warehouse stores to the West
Christchurch Women’s Refuge
and the Battered Women’s
Trust.
The idea is to provide
enough gifts for every refuge
client to receive something –
many of them have little or no
money to spend on treats or
presents for their children.
The gifts – which are all vetted
for safety and appropriateness
– also provide the refuge
organisations with a chance
to make further contact with
their clients and check on their
well-being.
Te Whare Hauora, the West
Christchurch Women’s Refuge
and the Battered Women’s
Trust, all affiliates of the
National Collective of Independent
Women’s Refuges,
are based in different parts
of Christchurch, but work
together. They share resources
such as the 24-hour crisis

helpline, and refer clients for

To be affiliated to the national
collective, organisations
must provide 24-hour crisis
help, residential accommodation,

suffering domestic or family
violence.

Exercise
sharpens young
adult brains
Regular physical activity improves brain function
even in young adults considered in their prime
and at the height of cognitive ability, according to
a University of Otago study.
A body of research already exists showing
aerobic exercise improves brain function
in older adults, but there is a limited
amount of literature on how it affects
young adults.
The Otago researchers, led by
Department of Psychology Senior
Lecturer Dr Liana Machado, set out to
test the oft-held belief that the brains of
young adults in their prime might not
benefit as much as older people from
regular sustained exercise.
They took 52 tertiary students, aged
between 18 to 30, and put them through
a series of cognitive tests on a computer
while measuring oxygen availability in
the frontal lobe of their brains, as well as
their self-reported exercise frequency.
Dr Machado says their “surprising”
findings, just published online in the
journal Psychophysiology, show that
both blood supply to the brain and
cognitive functioning appear to benefit
from regular exercise in young adults.
“This provides compelling evidence
that regular exercise, at least five days per
week, is a way to sharpen our cognitive
ability as young adults – challenging
the assumption that living a sedentary
lifestyle leads to problems only later in
life,” she says.
The research also provides potential
insight into understanding why people
who regularly engage in aerobic exercise
tend to function better on a cognitive
level.
“I think the idea that young people do
not have to worry about exercising since
they are in their prime developmentally
is rapidly being overturned by mounting
evidence that even the brains of young
adults can benefit from regular exercise,”
she says.
“The exercise could involve brisk
walking or more vigorous activity, and
could be made up of a few 10 minute
bouts of exercise, rather than one single
block of exercise,” she says.
The researchers also found that body
mass index was not a key factor in how
well the brain functioned, indicating that
regular engagement in physical activity
may be more important than body
weight.
Dr Machado says she had noticed
over the years that university students
appeared progressively less fit.
“I wondered whether we might find
significant relationships between exercise
levels, oxygen availability in the brain,
and cognition in the young adults, but
no studies had considered this in healthy
young adults.”
These findings come at a time of
increased scientific focus on links
between exercise and cognitive health in
older adults.
