Push-ups are often seen as a basic exercise, but ask anyone who’s been working out for a while, and they’ll tell you—it’s a move that constantly demands better form, strength, and control. Whether you’re just starting or looking to refine your technique, there’s always room for improvement. To help break it down, I spoke to…
As someone who’s pretty consistent with workouts—mainly Pilates, walking, and a few strength sessions—I thought I had my core training down. But there’s one move I always seemed to skip: the reverse crunch. I had assumed it wouldn’t do much more than a regular crunch, but I kept seeing it pop up in core-focused routines….
Like many people juggling work and daily stress, I often struggle to pause and truly disconnect. Even when I take a break from my desk, my mind tends to keep spinning, thinking about emails, errands, and everything in between. I usually prefer in-person yoga classes, but every now and then, I turn to short home…
As a personal trainer, I see a lot of clients walk in complaining of lower back pain, but after a few assessments, it’s often clear that the real issue isn’t just in the lower back.

Whenever I finish a workout, my priority is to give my body a chance to recover as quickly as possible. For this, I am always on the lookout for high-protein snacks that not only strengthen my muscles but also taste good. Here, I’m sharing a list of my favorite high-protein snacks that can be consumed…
For years, I ignored my posture. Slouching at my desk, checking my phone with my head down, or tossing my heavy bag over one shoulder—none of it seemed like a big deal. But when I started experiencing tight shoulders, neck stiffness, and constant discomfort, I knew something had to change. Good posture isn’t just about…
How I Learned to Stay Awake and Enjoy My Study Sessions I used to think there was something wrong with me. Every time I sat down to study, especially after a meal or in the evening, I’d start yawning. Sometimes I’d wake up with my head on the notebook, pen still in hand. Sounds familiar?…
The kettlebell swing might look simple, but there’s real power behind those smooth reps. Done right, this movement lights up your entire posterior chain—from your glutes and hamstrings to your core and back. Done wrong? It turns into a glorified front raise or worse, a one-way ticket to lower back pain. That’s why nailing your…
