About The Study: This trial found that a 12-week high-intensity interval training intervention did not improve hippocampal integrity or associated cognitive or mental health impairments while people continued to consume cannabis. However, results indicated that people with cannabis use disorder can engage in regular physical exercise programs and highlighted exercise as a potential strategy to reduce cannabis craving.
