For some, love is a noun that encompasses a vast array of emotions. For others, love is a verb; it’s something you do to show those around you that you care. Throughout centuries and cultures, philosophers, artists and scientists have tried to explain the essence of love. One truth we might all embrace is that love is the language of the heart, and there are as many definitions of the word as there are beating hearts in this world. Love is a word that holds a universe of meaning within it: From the love of family to the purest vulnerability…
When it comes to lifting, strict form has long been considered the gold standard, with fitness professionals claiming that maintaining controlled movements ensures optimal muscle engagement and minimizes injury risk. However, some lifters intentionally incorporate cheat reps. Cheat reps involve using momentum, body movement, or “improper form” to complete a lift when strict technique would otherwise lead to failure. This can include swinging the weight or using excessive body drive to lift heavier loads or perform more reps. While some lifters argue that cheat reps can help push past plateaus or provide additional stimulus, they are generally seen as a…

When I looked into my loved one’s eyes during one of her first manic episodes, I did not recognize the eyes staring back at me. Equally heartbreakingly, I felt that she did not recognize me. And so it began: a cycle of highs and extreme lows, agitation and depression, characteristic of bipolar disorder. While bipolar disorder affects each person differently, in her case, the depression has often lasted longer than the manic state, sometimes lasting years. During these polarized periods, one of the hardest parts was the feeling that “she” was lost to me – she whose counsel I trusted…

I think there’s ones like APOB, where for 20 years it’s been known that APOB is a better predictor of chronic disease than LDL.

As we move into our 40s and beyond, staying mobile isn’t just about flexibility, it’s about preserving strength, preventing injuries, and ensuring we move through life with ease and confidence.

When mobility takes a backseat, our bodies compensate in ways that lead to imbalances, increased wear and tear, higher risk of injury, and more mileage added. But here’s the good news, small, consistent efforts can make a huge impact. By dedicating just 15 minutes, 2-3 times per…
