Super adventurous would never be two words that describe me. Skydiving will never be on my bucket list, and I never use hot sauce on my food — ever! But in the name of my physical and mental health, I’m into trying just about anything. I tried CrossFit for a year, and I also committed

Simone Biles’s Gold Over America Tour features a strong lineup of world-class gymnasts. And prior to the group’s Minneapolis, MN, tour stop on Oct. 13, some of them completed a 10-minute conditioning workout (because elite athletes obviously work out before they perform!).

The word “colonoscopy” has always been one I have dreaded hearing. At 14, I was diagnosed by a gastroenterologist with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), which causes stomach pain and other intestinal symptoms, like bloating and diarrhea. These symptoms tend to happen at the same time, which causes a lot of discomfort. When I was diagnosed

We often think of soup as a food you eat when you’re feeling under the weather — but with the right ingredients, a comforting bowl of soup can help support the immune system and keep you from getting sick in the first place. From antioxidant-rich veggies to proteins packed with zinc, there are a ton

Olympic figure skater Maia Shibutani really is an inspiration — in more ways than one! At the 2018 Olympics, she took home the bronze in ice dance alongside her brother Alex, continuing a streak of American ice dance teams who have stood atop the Olympic podium since 2006. Although she hasn’t competed since then, she

I consider myself a YouTube workout connoisseur. When I’m test-driving a new routine, the first place I go is the YouTube comment section. People get real honest down there. When a workout is good, you can tell by how excited and passionate the commenters become. While I was browsing around for new cardio workouts, these

My mind feels like it never shuts off. So much so that I’ll bolt wide awake around 3 a.m. with thoughts of what I have planned for the next day. In craving a night of solid sleep, I was intrigued by the possibility that CBD could give me a night (or more) of complete rest.

Arm day is one of my favorites because flexing my biceps, straining my triceps, and lifting my whole body off the floor during push-ups makes me feel so strong.
