When it comes to working out, we’re not all strongmen like Hafþór Júlíus Björnsson (aka The Mountain). 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 no shame in...
In 2005, Cliff Arnall, a South Wales lecturer and happiness coach, determined that the third Monday of January was the worst day of the year. Why? Because most people have accepted that not only is the holiday season truly over, they’ve figured out just how far over...
We’ve all experienced the agony of holding in a ripe poop. Maybe you’re on a date and you’re afraid of the monster broiling within; maybe you’re driving in the middle of the desert and even if you wanted to stop and poop, the only napkins you have...
The male orgasm is, to use the most clichéd metaphor in the book, a rollercoaster ride. Not because it involves a thrilling series of ups and downs, but because once it’s done, you can’t just stay in your seat for another go — you have to head...
Holy crap, it’s cold outside! Some temperatures around the U.S. are so low right now, they could convince a polar bear to hide indoors — there’s a reason some animals just say “screw it” and hibernate through winter, after all. But while it might force you indoors...
Nothing screams New Year’s Eve like popping a bottle of bubbly and almost blasting your friend’s eye out in the process. But you might want to think hard about what bubbly you choose to drink, unless you plan on making never drinking ever again your resolution this...
You resolved to read more, budget better, eat healthier and exercise more frequently, but only three weeks into the new year, the boring books, countless lentils and your perpetually throbbing thighs have you seriously considering reverting back to your old, unhealthy and much more chill ways. But...
We know, we know, the couch is a safe space where you can exist on cheesy chips and streaming binges while ignoring your bothersome real-life responsibilities. But if you plan on having the discipline necessary to follow through on your New Year’s fitness resolutions — and want...

The mirror suggests it; the scales confirm it: You have, through hardcore dedication, a strict New Year’s resolution and/or a terrible stomach virus, managed to lose some weight. But… lose it where? Where does the fat actually go? Do we digest it? Poop it out? Is it...
The holidays are all about absurdly gluttonous meals and sugary treats, both of which contribute to a horrifying fact we learned a while back: Americans typically gain one to three pounds between Thanksgiving and New Year’s Day, and most of us never lose it. Argh. But don’t...
Sure, there are presents and spiked eggnog and A Christmas Story playing on a continuous 168-hour loop on TV, but outside of that, the whole holiday season is pretty damn stressful. You’re spending money you don’t have and hanging around your family far more than you’d like,...
