Exercise for core ADHD symptoms and executive functions in children and adolescents with ADHD: A network and dose-response meta-analysis

CONCLUSION: Closed-skill and open-skill exercises were, respectively, the most effective modalities for improving core ADHD symptoms and EFs. Based on our exploratory models, a minimum overall exercise dose of approximately 600-800 METs-min/week (roughly 20-25 min/day of 4.5 METs moderate-intensity exercise) may be sufficient to achieve improvements in both core ADHD symptoms and EFs.
