Just when you thought you’d escaped the confusing confines of your high school dress code, the gym proves you wrong. In 2024, women are still sharing horror stories about their gym memberships getting revoked due to issues with the dress code.

Meghan Lamb received her breast cancer diagnosis during the week of her 29th birthday. “I went to the doctor just for a sinus infection, and I said, ‘By the way, I have this lump. Can you feel this?'” Her primary-care physician suggested they keep an eye on her breast tissue, but three weeks later, her
Here’s an unexpected win for the environment: reusable water bottles are having an it-girl moment, thanks in part to the wildly popular Stanley cups. While we’ve successfully eschewed single-use bottles and opted for giant tumblers from which to sip iced coffees and sparkling mocktails, it’s worth investigating the materials used. So, which material is best?

Today, we know Caitlin Clark as one of the greatest shooting guards in women’s college basketball. The Iowa Hawkeyes player averaged 32.2 points this season, and on March 3, she became the National Collegiate Athletic Association’s (NCAA) all-time scoring leader as she closed out her final season in a game against Ohio State. The guard
Every year, tech giants push the boundaries of possibility with their latest releases, and this year, Samsung is rewriting the innovation rulebook. We got our hands on the new S24+ for a test spin and got to say, it’s the must-have accessory every boss babe needs! We’re here to unpack all the juicy features and
There are approximately 1.8 billion people who menstruate around the world. That means that on any given day, millions of people are on their periods — and not only is that a lot of blood, it’s also a lot of information about our bodies that ends up getting thrown away. Until now. In January, the
If there’s one exercise that always makes me shiver in my gym shoes, it’s burpees. Love them or hate them, burpees are included in many high-intensity workouts. The basic burpee exercise combines a jump, squat, plank, and push-up to create an intense sequence that works just about every muscle group in your body. And while
Walk into any group fitness class, and odds are you’ll see at least a few people wearing the Fitness Uniform (TM): plain black leggings and a longline sports bra. It’s a classic for a reason — dark colors don’t show sweat, and everyone looks good in black — but it can be a bit boring.
Since the overturning of Roe v. Wade in June 2022, reproductive rights have continuously been under attack. Just two weeks ago, the Alabama Supreme Court ruled that frozen embryos created through in vitro fertilization are considered children, shutting down IVF clinics across the state. In March and April, the US Supreme Court will hear two
There are a lot of things that can go wrong with your gut, leading to serious discomfort on your part. Gas, bloating, diarrhea…no one wants to deal with that. But if your doctor has ruled out conditions like irritable bowel syndrome, food intolerances, and other common issues, you may wonder if you could be dealing
“‘Fill your mind with courage and your heart with faith. Everything is going to work out even better than you had hoped!’ I use this quote when there’s any fear involved with a risk I’m about to take or a hard task I’m about to attempt. It allows me to continue to put myself out
Ashlee Green was an active child growing up. “But active in the sense that I used to play outside with my friends and was drinking water from the water hose,” she tells POPSUGAR. “I didn’t play sports. I was too scared.” Founding a media company for Black women runners, RunGrl, was definitely absent from her
Katie Ledecky doesn’t mean to be so iconic. When asked how she built her confidence as a young athlete, the Stanford grad and Olympic athlete thinks carefully before admitting, “I guess I’ve kind of had it for as long as I can remember.” She credits her mom for getting her in the pool, and various
I never ran before getting sick. Most days, my health was a constant I didn’t even think to acknowledge — a kind of ignorance I almost envy now. After contracting COVID and surviving two strokes, I spent months in and out of hospitals, focusing only on recovery. My resting heart rate remained in the triple
As a little kid, Maria Solis Belizaire was a fiercely competitive runner. She’d blaze around the gym during PE. “I had to be first place,” she says. “Even when I wasn’t in school, my father and I would race around the track.” But when she got into high school, she fell away from the sport,
After spending a month in a blue zone, dietitian and content creator Maggie Hennigan felt so good, she decided to start re-creating some of her favorite blue zone meals at home. “As a registered dietitian, I’m challenging myself in 2024 to make my life as much like a blue zone as possible, and obviously that
The term “alcohol-induced dementia” has been getting a lot of attention recently, after the Lifetime documentary “Where Is Wendy Williams?” included claims that the former talk show host was facing the condition. The ethics of the documentary are currently being debated, with some feeling that the project is exploitative and wrong, especially considering that Williams’s
Pope Francis might not have meant to target the LGBTQ+ community when he called for a global surrogacy ban, but that didn’t soften the blow. On Jan. 8, the pope gave a speech in Vatican City in which he described the process so many people rely on for family building as “deplorable,” as the Associated
For days filled with hikes, treks, sightseeing, and other adventures, you’ll want gear that’s flexible and agile, without sacrificing comfort or style. That’s why I opted for two of Lululemon’s bestsellers, the Align High-Rise Pant ($98) and the Scuba Oversized Half-Zip Hoodie ($118).
