Iconic WWE Superstar, Nia Jax, and impactful newcomer, Lash Legend are the current WWE Women’s tag team champions, and while these “Irresistible Forces” should be considered the underdogs as they defend their belts against three top teams at WrestleMania 42—it could be foolish to bet against them in Sin City. These strong women talked to M&F Hers to share how their different paths have converged to build an unstoppable prospect. “I think we blend seamlessly,” says Nia Jax (real name: Savelina Fanene) as the two sit down to chat, before the chaos inevitably ensues at WrestleMania 42 in Las Vegas.…
A veteran personal trainer’s 5-move morning routine that brings back your all-day energy after 55 After nearly 40 years as a personal trainer, and for the last 25 years I’ve been training the next generation of fitness professionals at TRAINFITNESS, the pattern I see most often in people over 55 isn’t weakness or injury. It’s low energy in the morning that drags through the entire day. Most people accept it as normal aging. It isn’t. Movement in the morning activates systems that have been dormant during sleep and kickstarts your metabolism in ways that last all day. These five exercises…
Certain influencers have built entire social media empires out of making everything from scratch. Oftentimes, their videos carry an implicit sense of moral superiority, suggesting that you’re not a good parent (or at least not as good as them) if you’re resorting to pre-packaged store-bought items. Those who pick their own produce and painstakingly hand-craft their own candy necklaces simply work harder, love their children more, are fundamentally better.But this suggestion is hardly fair. For the vast majority of people—meaning those who don’t make their living off of wellness content or have near-endless amounts of time and money to burn—canned,…
As if WWE Superstar, Michael “The Miz” Mizanin, wasn’t already a big enough part of popular culture, the former Real World star and world heavyweight wrestling champion is now set to front another U.S. institution as he readies himself to host the American Gladiators reboot. M&F caught up with The Miz, to find out why he’s more excited than ever about his career in sports entertainment, and he also revealed us which Gladiators event he is looking forward to the most. How The Miz Balances WWE, Hosting, and Media Appearances Getting The Miz to sit down is not easy. In…
Address declining posture with these simple morning moves. Starting your morning with a healthy dose of exercise is a great way to progress toward your goals. Plus, it ensures you get it done before the day even begins. As you age, it’s essential to tweak your workout routine accordingly, with a major focus on posture. Posture typically declines after 60 due to muscular and structural changes. You also naturally lose muscle—a process known as sarcopenia—particularly in key postural muscles like your upper back, glutes, and deep core, says Justin Kraft, NASM-CPT, Performance Enhancement Specialist, Corrective Exercise Specialist, and the founder…
There’s a phrase that has become so embedded in professional culture that most people don’t even notice it anymore: time management. We build systems around it, buy planners for it, and take courses in it. And yet, for all the infrastructure we construct in its name, most people still feel perpetually behind — stretched, scattered, and vaguely guilty about how the day went. Here’s what I’ve come to believe: the phrase itself is the problem. To manage time is to treat it as a resource you can control. But time is the one thing that behaves the same regardless of…
At first glance, the Pallof press looks easy. You stand side-on to the resistance and press out, then back, without rotating or losing your balance. You can’t feel it or load it as you would in a traditional strength exercise, so many dismiss it. The Pallof press is frowned upon because lifters miss the nuisance of it. Your core’s job is to resist movement, stabilize your spine, and transfer force under heavy loads. That’s where the Pallof press shines. The Pallof press trains your core to remain stable as you move and resist. That ability, resisting rotation and maintaining position,…
A certified strength coach’s 5-move dumbbell routine that builds stronger arms after 55. If your goal is to build stronger arms, the approach doesn’t need to change all that much. The same types of exercises that built strength years ago still get the job done now. What matters more is how you organize them. Starting with compound movements gives you the most return early in your workout, and then layering in isolation work helps bring out the finer details in your biceps and triceps. That structure tends to deliver steady, reliable progress without overcomplicating things. There’s no need to chase…
Some people open restaurants after culinary school. Sabrina Rudin opened one because she was starving after a long day of teaching snowboarding and couldn’t find the kind of nourishing, plant based meal she actually wanted. So she went home, made it herself, and realized Aspen needed an organic vegetarian café. That moment became Spring Café, now with locations in Aspen and New York City. Raised on the belief that food is medicine long before it was trendy, Sabrina has built her life around making healthy eating feel generous, satisfying, and real. Her debut cookbook, Healthy with a Side of Happy,…
