THE BENCH PRESS is great. The cable crossover machine is awesome. Using dumbbells for moves like these is a guaranteed chest pump. But even if you can’t access any of that gear when you’re at home, you can still blast your chest aggressively, building strength and stimulating muscle growth. Why? Because you can still do push-ups. The classic pushup remains one of the best ways to hit your chest at home—or anywhere, period. You’re attacking your chest from an angle that’s very similar to the one you’d hit on a standard bench press, and while you’re working with a lighter loa ..read more

DESPITE THE OBVIOUS differences between the sports, it’s difficult not to view efoiling as surfing’s pickleball. Both borrow aspects of an existing sport (racquets and balls for pickleball, surfboard-like boards for efoiling), both have only come to mainstream attention in the last decade, and both are skyrocketing in popularity. But a key difference lies in their reliance on technology. In all likelihood, pickleball has reached its zenith. Its boundaries have been set, and its limits pushed to their zenith. Whereas efoiling continues to evolve as new innovations are made every day. In the sim ..read more

ANYONE WHO SPENDS significant time in the gym is probably willing to admit that muscle building isn’t easy. It takes a ton of dedication, which is difficult to muster up day in and day out. So, it’s only natural for people to look for quick fixes. That often takes form in supplements – and hydroxymethylbutyrate, better known as HMB, is popping up everywhere these days, from peeking out of your gym pal’s bag to that TikTok video. “Anyone who’s ever worked out knows that building muscle takes time and consistency. Recently, fitness influencers have been promoting HMB, claimin ..read more

YOU’VE SEEN THE ads: Milk helps build strong bones. Does that mean drinking milk can make you taller, too? “Milk is a good source of several nutrients that support growth – including protein, calcium, zinc, vitamin A, and vitamin D. There’s also some evidence that drinking milk may help increase your levels of IGF-1 – a hormone that helps determine how tall you’ll be,” says Kim Yawitz, R.D., a registered dietitian and gym owner in St. Louis. “In theory, drinking milk during adolescence could help you come closer to your genetic height potential.” We hate to be the ..read more

The Genesis of Vana Care: A Union of Vision and Passion The inception of Vana Care was no ordinary event; it was a moment of clarity born from the shared vision of two friends, Jesse and Jason.

The duo saw that real progress and empowerment for individuals with disabilities didn’t hinge on infrequent and isolated gym sessions but required a more integrated approach to promoting a healthy lifestyle. Jesse and Jaso ..read more

LOOKING AT ACTOR Travis Jeffery today, it’s difficult to imagine that he was once an overweight teenager. The 35-year-old is slight of build, but his forearms ripple with muscle and sinew, courtesy of the training he’s been putting in to prepare for his role as a head-of-the-food-chain primate in new film, Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes (in cinemas May 9). But Jeffery’s journey to a healthy physique has been long and arduous, one that began after he swapped sports for the theatre as a teenager. “At the end of high school, I stopped playing sport and I really let myself go bit,” says Jeffery ..read more

THE ELECTRIC REVOLUTION has irreversibly and unapologetically changed the car industry. What was once considered an experimental, futuristic modification reserved for cash flush scions and wealthy tech moguls has entered the realm of attainability for the general, medium-earning populace. Plus, with the European Union, China and Australian Capital Territory all phasing out sales of new fossil-fuelled vehicles by varying stages of the 2030s, owning an EV is starting to look more like a necessity than a sign of having too much disposable income and not enough shiny things to spend it on. Leading ..read more
