The brain may be made up of 75% water, but you certainly don't want the other 25% to be all hot air. The Japanese have come up with an ingenious way of improving your brain capacity every day. The Brain Trainer is the personal trainer for your brain that trains your brain directly from your desktop - with no need for insufferable personal trainers poncing about in spandex and running off with your other half.

Your brain needs a work-out just as much as your body, especially as nowadays it's mostly fuelled by numb-nut reality TV and lowest common denominator tabloid journalism. This clever piece of software makes giving your brain a work-out fun. The training is divided into five areas - Logic, Memory, Numerical, Spacial and Verbal, each area having five difficulty levels to consistently push your brain to higher levels of cognisance. Each exercise has a game element to it so it never feels like work! Activities include Matching Pairs (the PC version of the much loved card game), Sudoku, Mental Arithmetic, Spelling Tests and much more.

You can play a daily range of activities and review your brain's progress with the tracker system. There are so many questions that you and your brain will never tire of them. A simple ten minute blast every day will keep your brain as buff as a toned body worshipper, but without the orange tan and steroid induced side effects.
