The DRX Bliss is punted as a versatile, lightweight running shoe with omnidirectional support for precise strikes from your first step until that final push. It also packs plenty of cushioning to keep your tarmac capers feeling smooth and comfortable. Sounds like exactly ..read more

If there’s anything as prevalent as the idea that men should be strong and silent, it’s the world telling guys they need to talk about their feelings more. These contradictory messages are being cranked out at max volume, so it’s not surprising that we feel conflicted and frustrated. As a therapist, I agree that men must talk about things, but people underestimate how many of us haven’t been shown what that looks like—or why it’s even important. And it is really important: When you strengthen the muscle of putting the right words to your feelings, it can clean up a lot of mental hurdles and in ..read more

If your goal is to build big arms, your path to gains is relatively simple: loads of volume for your biceps and triceps. But according to Men’s Health fitness director Ebenezer Samuel, C.S.C.S., you don’t—and shouldn’t—take an entire day dedicated to training just your arm muscles.

From the Huberman Lab podcast to your biohacker buddy’s garage to your social feeds, saunas are everywhere right now. Part of the surge in interest (and sales) is largely thanks to science showing a connection between frequent sauna use and better physical and mental health. And maybe even longevity—including some stunning evidence that it may help prevent dementia. Not to mention the whole sauna thing: the community, the relaxation, the ritual, the ahh moment.
Most of the research on brain benefits comes from Finland. Where sauna bathing is a pillar in the healthy and happy culture. The sauna ..read more

Entrepreneurs are like team captains, leading their businesses to victory. Recently, entrepreneurs met up at a fancy hotel in Cape Town to talk about rugby, drink brandy, and share ideas about business. It was hosted by Heléne Smuts and Rob Heyns from the Entrepreneurs Organization Accelerator (EOA) Programme.
They had special guests, like Jean de Villiers, who used to be a big rugby player, and Joseph Dweba, who plays for the Stormers. These guys know a thing or two about teamwork, both on and off the field.
At the gathering, they talked about how rugby and business are similar. They said thi ..read more

In the so-called bro-social network, it’s become enshrined in law that “thou shalt not consume calories when the clock hath struck six”. But these fears around post-6 pm feasts have little grounding in science, and there’s little proof that you’ll gain weight. “I don’t truly know where this rule came from,” says Dr. Dana Hunnes, a senior dietitian at the Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center and adjunct assistant professor at the UCLA Fielding School of Public Health, noting that there’s nothing magical when it comes to that magic number. And honestly, who is even thinking about dinner that early ..read more
