    SCIENCE & HEALTH Champion Rope Skippers' Speed And Stamina

    Want to make it in the double dutch big leagues? Better not skip leg day. Or arm day. Or anything day. Because everything about this sport looks immensely difficult.

    Optimal load vs maximum load

    When I was younger and involved in Olympic weightlifting, I had the coaches do all the thinking for me..., I just lifted what I was asked to lift. Coming to bodybuilding, I followed the same method, a method where you don't lift balls to the wall just because you feel like it or because you can...

    Ab crack is the new body shaming trend designed to make us feel bad

    WE’VE had the thigh gap, the bikini bridge and the ridiculous A4 waist challenge, and now there’s a new body-shaming trend to make us feel bad about ourselves — the ab crack.

    What is the story with Dairy Farmers??

    This has been all over the news and social media for a few days now. I can't really work out what the story is and how buying expensive milk helps farmers when Coles/Woolies etc are making the profits on the milk. Can someone explain what the story is, as any articles I have read and news...
