When it comes to our bodies, there are the regions that are treated in high regard, and then there are the regions that are treated with distrust, if not outright disdain. From the former, we’d likely include our arms, our legs, our chests and, of course, our...
I’d argue that the primary purpose of having your own place is to be nude (and free) whenever you want. I know that taking off my clothes is the very first thing I do when I arrive home from work — before checking whether my living room windows, which...
If you have a prominent woman in your life or have ever stopped into a hair salon, you might at some point have heard a bit of grumbling about split ends. They seem to be a frustrating thing, and they happen on heads; you can tell that...
In college, I had a friend who was a little overweight — let’s call him Mike. Senior year, Mike returned to school after summer break in surprisingly good shape. Of course, I had to ask him about his transformation, having gained a good 15 to 20 pounds...

When it comes to working out, we’re not all strongmen like Hafþór Júlíus Björnsson (aka the Mountain from Game of Thrones). In fact, many of us could go our entire lives and still have no clue how a lat pull-down differs from an incline bench. Which is to say, there’s...
