As a signal to recognize emotion, the electroencephalogram (EEG) is used widely. Frontal asymmetry is not only related to emotion, but also affected by exercise. The purpose of our research is to explore the effects of exercise for negative emotion, and how the activity of the frontal of the college students who did not exercise regularly is. We used the frontal asymmetry between F3 and F4 channels of the alpha band. The result showed that the power of frontal asymmetry increased after exercise compared to that before exercise within 3 seconds after stimulation, and the change of the power during the 2 nd second was more obvious. The activity of the frontal of the students without exercise habits can be altered by exercise. The frontal asymmetry is related to emotion, which confirms that exercise has an effect on the students without exercise habits after negative stimulation.
