The boom in reformer pilates has created a wild west of studios where poor regulation has resulted in inexperienced teachers and a rise in injuries, professional standards bodies have warned.

Arnold Schwarzenegger's diet during competition required 1 gram of protein per pound of body weight, leading to a daily intake of 250 grams at 250 pounds, which is excessive for most individuals.

The merger is expected to create a fitness and wellness powerhouse. By bringing EGYM into the mix alongside B2B platforms like Booker and Mindbody, Playlist is stitching together multiple layers of the industry into a single system.

Chicken breast contains around 32 grams of protein per 100 grams, while boneless chicken thigh contains 25 grams of protein per 100 grams, making breast the higher protein option.

Hybrid training, which draws on various workouts from cardio to lifting, is gaining traction thanks to competitions like Hyrox created by Moritz Fürste.

The gym belongs to the Good Shepherd United Methodist Church in Madison, Alabama. As a way of connecting with the community, the church often allows teams and social groups use of its gym.

Before I retired, I taught physics at a secondary school in China. While working as a teacher, I met my wife at an event. We were as active as the students we taught, spending our free time playing badminton, basketball, volleyball, and table tennis.

I've always been in plus, extended sizes...like, Lane Bryant queen as a 14-year-old, business casual. Now I have a clothing sponsor. I get paid to ride my bike and be in photo shoots. My cellulite is out and my stomach is out. I'm just proudly standing there with my body on display.

By directly recording brain activity, our study shows, for the first time in humans, that even a single bout of exercise can rapidly alter the neural rhythms and brain networks involved in memory and cognitive function.

Start with the obvious question: how much protein are you actually getting per scoop? Most decent powders fall somewhere around the 20-25 gram range. That's enough to make a real dent in your daily intake, especially if you're trying to push past the 100-gram mark without eating chicken six times a day.

According to the Lawn Tennis Association, only 15,000 British players picked up a padel racket in 2019 but by the end of 2024, that figure was more than 400,000. Of those, about 399,000 are probably mispronouncing it: think pah-dell rather than paddle.

The first thing that quickly passes through your mind as the body starts to ache is 'how in Jaysus do horses do this on a daily basis and make it look so easy?' An extra pair of legs probably helps!

While warming up in the gym this morning, I felt a small twinge in my back. As I started hitting balls on the range before the round, it worsened and developed into muscle spasms in my lower back. Unfortunately, I'm not able to continue and have to withdraw. I was excited to compete this weekend.

I got a 3D scan that measured my flexibility last August, hoping the predictably subpar results would finally inspire me to stretch more. Then, I did basically nothing. Even knowing my shoulder rotation movement was in the "red" zone - needing serious improvement if I wanted to avoid future pain - it wasn't enough to get me to devote three minutes of light stretching before my cardio and strength workouts as suggested by trainers I had spoken with.

The air is sharp. The stakes are higher. The world is watching. In just 60 seconds, it is you versus the frostbitten glory of the 2026 Winter Olympics. From gravity-defying jumps to blink-and-you-miss-it sprints on ice, these sports demand nerves of steel. But can you name them before the clock runs out, or will you wipe out under pressure? Lace up. It is time to find out.

It got me thinking. While everyone's obsessing over the latest fitness trends and biohacking protocols, these folks have been consistently moving their bodies for decades. No fancy equipment, no Instagram-worthy routines, just simple habits they picked up long before movement became a multibillion-dollar industry. So I started asking around, digging into research, and talking to people who've stayed active well into their golden years. What I found wasn't revolutionary or complicated. It was refreshingly simple.

Quick Take: The "simple" part isn't magic - it's math. Ride your bike most days, track what you eat, and weigh yourself daily. Keep a small, steady calorie deficit and let the miles do their work. People ask how I lost weight and expect a secret. Here it is: I ride my bike, I track what I eat, and I don't lie to myself about the numbers.

For runners, the hips can be one of the most confounding and frustrating parts of the physiological puzzle for efficient movement. Every runner knows how crucial hip strength is - and how mobile hips are essential for both fast and pain-free running. Yet healthy, happy hips remain elusive. For many of us, our hips stay stiff no matter how much we massage and stretch them.
