Working out around Christmastime sucks. Unless you live in Arizona, Florida or Hawaii, the weather is probably colder than a bucket of penguin doodoo, and even if you stay home instead of visiting family or in-laws, you’re out of your routine, feeling that sweet holiday laziness. Basically,...
There are two common ways to stay warm in winter: Bundle up until you feel like you’re wearing three sleeping bags, or just drink booze until you get your beer coat, an invisible force that miraculously keep you warm when you’re hammered. But does alcohol actually increase...
The human body: An inspiring biological work of art? Or a meaty sack of germs and fluids? Either way, there’s still a lot we don’t know about what goes on in there — and scientists are constantly attempting to find out more. Here are the most interesting things they’ve...
