Chloe Kim was a sure favorite in the women’s snowboard halfpipe final at the Beijing Winter Olympics — and she delivered. The 21-year-old successfully defended her title from Pyeongchang 2018 with a massive bag of tricks, scoring a 94.00 in her very first run (the best of three runs stands, but no one surpassed Kim’s
Regular aerobic exercise has been shown to boost heart health, keep blood sugar levels in check, and maintain the health of our minds for the long haul. But just as there are a multitude of ways to work out and keep your body (and mind) healthy and strong, there are a trove of different approaches
At the 2022 Winter Olympics in Beijing, you’ll see lots of familiar faces, as well as some faces that are so fresh, you may wonder just how old athletes have to be to compete at the Olympic Games. The answer, as it turns out, isn’t cut and dried. According to the International Olympic Committee’s official
The Winter Olympics are arguably more about speed than anything else. You know speed skating is fast because “speed” is literally in the name, and if you’ve ever tuned in to downhill skiing, you know how fast those athletes fly. Incredibly, though, luge is considered the fastest sport at the Games. According to the official
After US skier Nina O’Brien’s horrific crash on her second run of the giant slalom at the 2022 Beijing Olympics, she was carried off the course on a stretcher with an injured left leg. The US Ski Team announced on Instagram that she “sustained a compound fracture of her left tibia and fibula.” O’Brien was
POV: you’re at the #WinterOlympics competing in luge. 🛷 pic.twitter.com/raRIrAcrTp — NBC Olympics (@NBCOlympics) February 7, 2022 NBC Olympics shared a video of the Olympic luge track from an athlete’s point of view, and I am, in a word, unwell. As in, I think my heart may be racing faster than this luger, and that’s
Figure skater Kamila Valieva just made history at the 2022 Beijing Games. During her team-event free skate, Valieva became the first woman to successfully land a quad jump at the Olympics, a huge feat to go along with the 15-year-old’s first Olympic medal (a team-event gold, naturally). And in true Valieva fashion, she didn’t stop
American figure skaters have been among the best in the world in ice dance for the past decade or so. The best of the best, though, has to be partners Meryl Davis and Charlie White. At the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi, they became the first American team to win the gold medal in ice
Figure skating at the 2022 Olympics in Beijing kicked off on Feb. 4 with the team event, and apparently Team USA decided to put on a show. Through three disciplines so far, the US has a somewhat surprising lead over the Russian Olympic Committee, courtesy of career-best programs from Nathan Chen, Madison Hubbell and Zachary

But it wasn’t just any floor routine: it brought all the fun and personality, featuring songs by Lizzo, Normani, and Doja Cat — a different
According to a new study published in “PLOS One,” ASMR videos could help alleviate anxiety. ASMR, which stands for autonomous sensory meridian response, is the whole-body sensation some people experience when they hear certain trigger sounds, such as a person whispering, paper crinkling, seltzer bubbles fizzing, or scoring sourdough. ASMR is described as an intensely
Trying to regulate my digestion is a balancing act, to say the least. Sometimes I poop several times in a day, and other times not at all. As a college student, the stress of school threw off my already barely-there pooping schedule, so I regularly took prebiotics to help regulate my gut — and it
I know that you read this headline and probably laughed. “Potato milk? Isn’t that just vodka?” you thought to yourself. You thought whole milk was making a comeback. You thought — silly you! — that we’d collectively reached a saturation point on alternative milks. Folks, it’s 2022, and we have yet to reach that limit.
The COVID-19 vaccine does come with side effects, and there have long been rumors and misinformation that infertility is one of them. A prospective study published last month aims to put some of those fears to rest. The study, led by researchers at the Boston University School of Public Health (BUSPH), found that the COVID-19
There’s a chance you’ve developed some sort of plan of attack for treating a pimple on your chin or forehead. Perhaps it involves not picking at it (right?!), a spot treatment you swear by, a special antiacne cleanser, or specific guidance straight from your dermatologist. But do you know what to do when a pimple
For most of us, planks don’t typically last a long time. Your core starts shaking, your arms start wobbling, your abs are on fire — about 30 seconds in, your body is yelling at you to wrap this up. But for marathoner and running coach Lorena Millan, planking became a personal challenge she knew she

Show yourself or someone you adore just how much you love them with dessert this Valentine’s Day. These recipes are healthy, but still delicious and decadent. Try the cupcakes with chocolate-avocado frosting or the no-bake brownies, or make your own chocolate cups filled with velvety mousse. For a small treat, try the vegan strawberry-cheesecake bites
Mustering up the energy to work out isn’t always easy. Take it from me: I genuinely love getting my sweat on — so much so that I typically work out twice in one day (a run in the morning followed by a strength or HIIT session in the afternoon). But am I jumping out of
