Bethany Hamilton is a name in surfing you should know even if you aren’t a fan of the wave-driven sport that’s the closest you can get to walking on water. I, for one, was familiar with the basics: Bethany, a Hawaii native, was a successful pro surfer from a young age who, at 13, lost

It’s no secret that strength training is an essential part of any fitness routine, but whatever your goals, you have to continue challenging your body if you want to build lean muscle. Enter the concept of progressive overload. “If you’re looking to build muscle and get stronger, you have to begin increasing the volume of
When people say they “binge-watched Netflix all weekend” or “binge-read the entire Harry Potter series,” it’s much different than saying you binge ate, and can even make light of a very serious eating disorder. We’ve asked registered dietitians and two eating disorder therapists to explain what binge eating is, how it differs from overeating, and
Lena Dunham is opening up about her health struggles after a paparazzi photo of her leaving her home using a cane surfaced sometime last week. On Oct. 31, the Girls alum took to Instagram to explain the photo and revealed in a lengthy caption that she suffers from Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome, or EDS. “This is what
You will torch calories and feel like a champion with this no-equipment HIIT workout from Gideon Akande, creator of Get Fit With Giddy. Challenge yourself with cardio moves, like star jumps and quick feet, and know that Gideon’s motivation will keep you smiling through the burn. Just remember, each 45 seconds of work is followed
When the temperature dips, we don’t just pull out our puffer coats: we also pull out our yoga pants. The athleisure staple isn’t just for flowing on your own, either: it’s also for grocery store runs, cozy nights in, and everything in between. Yoga pants should be flexible, opaque enough so that you feel confident
ICYMI, Hailee Steinfeld is ridiculously fit, and now we know how she keeps her abs so darn toned. The 22-year-old actress stopped by The Kelly Clarkson Show on Friday and chatted about how her father, a personal trainer, doesn’t exactly go easy on her when they work out together. After showing her talk-show audience a
How you space out meals during the course of the day might not make a big difference in the calorie department, but it has huge implications on your workout performance. Not only can ineffectively fueling your body hinder your performance, but also, eating too much before exercise can interfere with your goals. When it comes
Any runner knows that when you find the right shoes, you’re halfway to a great workout. If you’ve been searching for the perfect pair to help you crush your fitness goals, look no further. We love sneakers that we can wear for both running and other activities, like boxing, HIIT, or, honestly, just running errands.
After getting a henna tattoo to celebrate my growing belly bump a few years ago, one person commented, “Oh, how beautiful, but isn’t that bad for your baby?” I felt like being snippy and saying, “Yes, of course, it’s bad for my baby. I like to do harmful things to my unborn child.” But instead
If the rec center was a major selling point during your tour of your college campus, but you find that you’re not making it there as often as you thought, go ahead and cut yourself some slack. The truth is, it takes little to no space to get in a good workout, and this four-week
As fun as it is to wrap up a big, pretty box full of leggings or sneakers, sometimes the old adage is true when it comes to holiday gifts: good things come in small packages. Behold the best stocking stuffers for the friend in your life who loves to work out. Whether they’re a runner,
Simone Manuel and Simone Biles are among the most dominant athletes in their sports, but when the two made their Olympic debut in 2016 — where Manuel became the first Black woman to win an individual gold medal in swimming, and Biles racked up an impressive four gold medals and a bronze in gymnastics —
I’ve lived with migraines since I was very young. For about 20 years now, I’ve dealt with every single symptom that comes along with them. The unbearable, throbbing pain. The aching of my neck, jaw, and temples. The nausea, sensitivity to light, dizziness, and aura. You name it, I’ve experienced it. When I was officially
If leggings aren’t high-waisted, we probably aren’t buying them. The style is so perfect because it holds you in, doesn’t ride down and expose anything, and also looks great with just a sports bra or crop top. Plus, we find high-waisted leggings to be the most comfortable styles. Since there’s always room in your closet
Machines definitely get a bad rap at the gym, but when used correctly, they can help you improve your overall fitness levels and strength. One machine that’s great for increasing your lower-body strength, but can be insanely intimidating if you aren’t familiar with how to use it, is the leg press machine. The leg press
Ashley Graham just launched a fitness YouTube series called “Thank Bod,” and the supermodel — who is expecting her first child with husband Justin Ervin — is starting things off with a bang: one glute workout and one cardio workout, both created by her trainer Kira Stokes. Each workout keeps things simple and effective with
We’re sure you’ve heard — CBD (a chemical found in the cannabis plant that doesn’t have psychoactive properties) is the latest “it” trend to sweep the health and wellness world. Often marketed as a natural solution to aches and pains, CBD can now be found in food, drinks (CBD lattes are actually a thing), and
It’s 2019, and BTS has officially taken over my workout playlist. (Also the global music industry but, more importantly, my workout playlist.) The seven-person K-pop boy group mix and mash hip-hop, EDM, and straight-up pop into songs that break records and defy genre in a way that’s uniquely their own. For this playlist, I’m setting
I started running when I lost my grandma earlier this year. She had Stage 7 Alzheimer’s, and though my yiayia was no longer the same person I had known my entire life, we settled into a new normal. We were always there for each other, and when she lost her voice, it was my turn
My husband and I moved to Austria a little over two years ago and have traveled to many European countries since, but biking through the French countryside may be the single greatest trip I’ve ever taken. While I had never been much of an outdoorsy person, I finally found a hobby that stuck when I
I don’t think it’s necessary to always finish a workout with every muscle in your body shaking, but every now and then I like to ignite my ab muscles. I was experimenting with different movement combinations and I came up with this quick, five-move workout. By the second round, my abs were screaming at me.
There are plenty of people in the world who love adding some color to their workout wardrobe, and then there are the rest of us. Wearing all black to the gym is a lifestyle choice, and we genuinely can’t imagine putting on anything else. Black makes us feel strong, powerful, and ready to take on
Rowing is an efficient way to burn calories, as well as build strong and defined muscles — but is it enough to help you shed stubborn belly fat, compared to other forms of cardio like running? The short answer is yes. “Rowing is a great low-impact option if you cannot run because it also offers
I pride myself on having somewhat of a Mary Poppins desk. Somewhere in my drawers, there’s a solution to a problem. Salad stuck in your teeth? I’ve got floss. Coffee stain on your shirt? I’ve got a Tide pen. So, now you understand why discovering a wellness kit of natural remedies to common workday aches
We’ve learned through years and years of working out that sometimes, low-impact exercises can give you the most high-impact results. That’s why we love yoga and barre class. Aside from making us feel more zen and centered, the exercises also help us achieve those long, lean lines we’re after. It’s something we can do at
If you’re on the hunt for a new pair of workout sneakers, then you’re in luck. We went on a mission to find the coolest and most comfortable pairs you can shop on the internet right now. Snagging new ones will not only help you stay motivated, but they’ll also keep your feet supported, comfy,
One of my slightly weird hobbies is trying out and reviewing the workouts that athletes and celebrities do. I’m a fan of all of Halle Berry‘s workouts (the ab workouts will leave you shaking), and I once did The Rock’s workouts for a week and my arms have never been more sore. I recently tried
As a nutritionist, I try to choose healthy treats to hand out to kids when they bound up to our door in their adorable Halloween costumes. I’ve tried year after year to convince my husband that handing out stickers and pencils is totally acceptable, but he ranks these trinkets right up there with giving out
We like to consider ourselves relatively healthy individuals, but we can admit that sometimes, a little help is appreciated. It can be tough to stick to our goals, and we’re fans of anything that will keep us accountable. Yes, you can make workout dates with friends or prep lunches in advance, but if your friend
