| | TOP 3 MUST READS OF THE WEEK | | | | | | Bryan Johnson Is a Man on a Mission of Immortality | Tech entrepreneur Bryan Johnson is on a mission to live forever. He tracks his every moment, from sleeping and eating to stress and erections, living the ultimate healthy lifestyle like an episode of Black Mirror. Johnson believes the Blueprint is the ultimate form of human-AI alignment. No, we're not talking about the Jay-Z album but rather extending the lifespan of homo sapiens. If you had a million dollars would you spend it prolonging your life, and at what cost? | | | | | Prevent Sacroiliac (SI) Joint Pain With These Prehab Exercises | If you sit at a desk for most of the workday or perform a lot of lower body exercises like deadlifts, good mornings, and barbell hip raises, you're familiar with the throbbing pain that results afterward coming from the SI joint. The sacroiliac joint is a few inches below the waist and hips (you know the spot) and starts hollering, slowing you down when moving throughout the day. These prehab exercises can help alleviate SI discomfort and a trip to the chiropractor. Try these techniques during your next 15-minute break or on a rest day from training. | | | | | Anthony Nesty Is Swimming for the Gold as the First Black U.S. Coach at the Olympics | USA Swimming announced that Florida State swim coach Dan Nesty will serve as the head coach for the U.S. men's swim team at the 2024 Paris Olympics, marking the first time a black coach will oversee the squad. He will partner with Virginia State coach Todd DeSorbo, who will lead the women's team. Nesty is no stranger to breaking barriers; he became the first black swimmer to win Olympic gold while representing Suriname, after his dominant performance in the 1988 Seoul Olympics. Additionally, he made history by becoming the first black coach to lead the U.S. team at the World Championships in 2022. | | | | | |
Blueberries Rank 11th on the Dirty Dozen Foods List Eating blueberries as a topping for oatmeal, yogurt, and smoothies sounds healthy, right? The Environmental Working Group's 2023 Shopper's Guide to Pesticides, says differently, ranking blueberries 11th on the Dirty Dozen foods list. Testing conducted between 2020 and 2021 revealed that blueberries contained an estimated 54 different pesticides, whereas foods like kale and collard greens harbored a whopping 103. Medical professionals recommend opting for organic foods to reduce the risk of pesticide consumption. | | The 30-Day Cold Shower Challenge Taking a cold shower first thing in the morning can jump-start your day and boost your productivity. If you're hesitant about braving the icy waters, begin with 3-5 minutes and gradually increase the duration. After just 30 days, your mornings will never be the same. | | Drinking Apple Cider Vinegar Like the Kardashians If you've been scouring TikTok or watching "Keeping Up with the Kardashians," you may have caught wind about taking daily shots of apple cider vinegar for a health boost. Guess what? There's recent scientific evidence supporting the claim that consuming small doses of apple cider vinegar offers health benefits, including weight loss and lower blood sugar levels. The only challenge? Downing a few ounces of this pungent potion. Are you up for it? | | The Hangover Cure You've Been Looking For Hangovers are punishment for a night out with friends and a few rounds of drinks. You wake up feeling like you've stepped straight out of "The Walking Dead," swearing off 2-for-1 happy hours for good. Scarfing heavy carbs, sipping ginger beer and bitters, and getting after the "hair of the dog" are age-old remedies employed to fend off the wine flu. Before your next night out (because there will be one), check out these dos and don'ts of drinking. Your future self will thank you. | | Does Creatine Affect Sleep? Creatine monohydrate is one of the most extensively researched supplements on the market. It's popular for increasing lean muscle mass, enhancing performance output, and accelerating recovery from fatigue making it a gym staple. Beyond its fitness applications, research studies have reported that creatine supplementation offers numerous potential health benefits. A 2023 Gatorade Sports Science Institute study on the effects of creatine on brain health found that in addition to improving cognitive performance, creatine can reduce the body's need for sleep and mitigate the effects of sleep deprivation. | | Increase Your Squat Strength With Anderson Squats Blast through squat plateaus with the Anderson Squat. Named after the legendary strongman Paul Anderson, it increases strength at the bottom of the hole and leg drive while rising. | | Step Into the Ring of Wellness With the Big 5 of Mental Health When Iron Mike Tyson tells you to do something, you do it!
