Between the long lines, the uneven stock (maybe one day we’ll have flour again), and the stress of maintaining social distance in narrow aisles, it’s not surprising that many of us are opting for takeout and grocery delivery instead of braving stores. (Takeout in particular is also a good way to support your local businesses.)

Move over, blueberry muffins and banana bread! Starbucks has more add-ons to offer with your morning cup of joe, in case you haven’t already noticed. Best of all for Starbucks fans are breakfast sandwiches (who doesn’t love a breakfast sandwich?!). One of my fellow POPSUGAR editors said her personal favorite is the reducted-fat turkey bacon,

If you are dealing with an injury, don’t have too much space, or aren’t super keen on moving around, there are plenty of ab circuits you can do entirely lying down. Sometimes, though, you just don’t feel like doing crunches or a series of endless planks. Sometimes you’re in need of variety — and keeping

Taking sneakers beyond the workout is a fashion trend that’s here to stay; we love moving our bodies, but we want to look as good as possible doing so. That’s why we love cute workout outfits. They motivate us to get our butt moving so we can feel like our happiest, healthiest selves. But, the

If there were a connection between fitness and astrology, specifically birth charts, my rising sign would be strength training, my moon sign would be abs, and my sun sign would be recovery devices. Until someone can verify my fitness birth chart, I’m going to stick to what I know and love: ab-strengthening workouts. This quick

Your restless nights may just come to a halt thanks to Nick Jonas’s new (and free!) 37-minute sleep story on Audible. (If you aren’t familiar with sleep stories, they’re recordings created to help you relax and calm your mind so that you can sleep better.) If you’ve been tossing, turning, and waking up in the

If you’ve read much about COVID-19, you know that fever, cough, and shortness of breath are hallmarks of the disease. But while many people will run a fever — for as long as a week or more — it’s possible to contract the virus and never see a spike in your temperature. “You can definitely

The taste of apple cider vinegar can be aggressive when taken straight, which is why were excited that Pressed Juicery collaborated with Bragg and dropped a new ACV green juice and two ACV shots. The Sweet Greens with Apple Cider Vinegar features ingredients like apple, celery, cucumbers, spinach, ginger, lemon, and ACV and is $7

I’ve always wanted to be a morning person, but if I had to choose between snoozing my alarm for an extra 15 minutes and basically anything else, you’d find me with my eye mask on and curtains drawn, fighting for a few extra minutes of REM sleep. When I first began working from home, rolling

As someone who is clinically diagnosed with depression and anxiety, I understand the importance of normalizing mental illness and fighting back against the stigma that prevents people from getting the help and support they need. But while we’ve made strides in recent years, I worry it’s come at the expense of downplaying the seriousness of

The world we woke up in today is not the same as the world we were living in just a few months ago. Some have described the coronavirus pandemic as the weirdest, sh*ttiest rollercoaster ride of all time. And to be honest, that’s fair enough. Scientists have researched extensively how humans deal with extreme isolation,

We all know Free People for its pretty dresses and sexy swimwear, but the brand has so much more to offer. Its ever-evolving activewear collection is a must try. The retailer’s own line, FP Movement, is hands down one of my favorites. My drawers are filled with tons of choices, but I find myself reaching

A fever is one of the most common symptoms of COVID-19, the disease caused by the novel coronavirus. Symptoms typically appear between two to 14 days after exposure to the virus, and while the fever may not set in right away, it can feel relentless once it does. Just how long can you expect to

My relationship with exercise has always been, well, complicated. I started playing sports when I was 3 years old, and I come from an athletic family; movement was an essential part of my life growing up. When I stopped playing competitive tennis after high school, I found group fitness, and tried almost everything: indoor cycling,

For some, planning your workouts might seem daunting, especially if you have a longer period of time to fill. Only have a half hour? You can be strategic about it and find quick yet effective routines that will make the most of those 30 minutes (because time is fleeting, but your fitness goals don’t have

The headlines surrounding coronavirus can be terrifying, with the number of confirmed cases and deaths climbing every day, and many cities and states still bracing for impact. But while we need to be diligent and take the necessary steps to protect our communities, it’s also important not to freak out. Panic, fear, and stress can

There are hundreds of thousands of confirmed cases of COVID-19 in the US, and realistically, there are many more Americans experiencing mild-to-moderate symptoms who don’t meet the threshold for testing. If you’re one of them, you may be wondering how long it’ll take for you to feel better. The answer isn’t entirely clear — it

Now that I’ve been exercising at home, my workouts aren’t nearly as long or intense as they were when I was working out at my CrossFit gym. I’m actually really enjoying this time to listen to my body and do the exercises I want to do. Best of all, since I’m not commuting back and

When I talk about how I don’t eat dairy, nine times out of 10, the immediate response is, “Oh, I could never give up cheese.” And immediately after, someone always says something about not being able to live without pizza. If you want to avoid dairy, many brands offer vegan shredded mozzarella — and they’ve

I’ve set a lot of goals for myself during my running career: finish a half-marathon, finish a marathon, run 100 miles in a month. But one goal that’s remained consistent year after year and race after race is to get faster. It’s a pretty common goal among runners at any level. Once you’ve gotten passed

Trader Joe’s is home to some of our favorite healthy staples, including low-cal ice cream, keto snacks, and . . . collagen powder? Oh, yes.

If you struggle to find the motivation to work out at home or can’t imagine exercising without gym equipment, it’s time to let the world of YouTube workouts change your life. The best part of YouTube’s at-home exercise routines — beside the convenience of having tons of workouts with no equipment required — is that

And you know what? You don’t need a lot of time, either, and this roundup of 20-minute workouts

Trader Joe’s brings their A game to the snack department with their wide variety of healthy bites and keto-friendly foods, all for an affordable price. This diet harps on high-fat, low-carb, and moderate protein food, and luckily for those on the diet, the aisles of TJ’s are stocked with snacks that meet those requirements. Just

You probably already stretch before and after exercising, depending on the workout, but stretching is something you need to do every day, whether you work out or not. That’s because it keeps your muscles from shortening (hello, tight hamstrings from sitting at a desk all day), and helps with flexibility, mobility, and range of motion.

If you experience anxiety, you know how hard it can be to manage the constant buzz of stressed, agitated thoughts. There’s no substitute for treatment from a mental health professional, but if you’re struggling right now, you can ease your anxiety in a few ways. Yoga is one of them. All forms of exercise will

Due to the implementation of social distancing guidelines and stay-at-home orders across the US, nonessential businesses have closed their doors. That includes private practices run by therapists. At a time where being isolated and the novel coronavirus pandemic itself can cause anxiety and stress — and especially for those with mental illness — not being

I’ve been working out consistently for more than 10 years, always in a gym or studio and never at home. I’ve tried everything from kickboxing and big-box gyms to Pilates and personal training. Currently my love is F45, where I get the benefit of high-intensity interval training, weights, a supportive community, and a feeling that

Dust off the ol’ waffle maker and whip up a batch of these hearty, protein-packed vegan waffles. Soft and fluffy on the inside and slightly crispy on the outside, these waffles have no milk, butter, or eggs. These waffles are made with healthy, filling, and nutritious ingredients like whole wheat flour, flaxmeal, and hemp seeds.

One of the main reasons people buy organic produce is to eliminate the risk of pesticides from their diet. Even with a good wash, however, you may still be paranoid that you can’t get everything off. Since any produce — organic or not — is handled considerably before it makes it to the market, washing
