These are the folks that go off the beaten path and travel to the far reaches of the globe for a paddling experience unlike any other. Paddler Alex Ferguson definitely makes the short list. In this video from Kien Thompson, he paddles among giant glaciers in the Jökulsarlón Glacier Lake....

A weekend summer road trip with the entire family calls for four wheels that can get the job done. Enter the 355-horsepower 2019 Chevy Tahoe. As we embarked on a recent trek up the East Coast, our first thought: We felt like we could tow something weighing about 8,000 pounds—or, at least, easily haul our family through the mountains without any hiccups along the way. (And if you did need to tow something that heavy, it can haul 8,600 pounds....

Motorcycling is one of life’s great thrills, but getting your first bike can be intimidating. That’s why Yamaha created the YZF-R3—it’s a beginner-friendly package that still offers the styling and joy of a proper sportbike. The R3, introduced in 2015, quickly became Yamaha’s best-selling bike in the United States due to its light weight, ample power, and easy handling. There were a couple of minor flaws with budget components, but the good news is that Yamaha has addressed them with an update for 2019....

Earlier this week, Gretchen Reynolds from the New York Times published an article titled “Running a Marathon? Think Hot Tub, Not Ice Bath, Afterward.” The piece reports on a new study out of Sweden, which finds warming muscles after a workout helps recovery better than cooling them. The conclusion? Skip the ice bath and hit the sauna (it’s Sweden, duh). Except, the science of temperature-based recovery is a whole lot murkier than Reynolds purports....

By now, everyone in the outdoor community recognizes the name Alex Honnold.

Most weight-loss strategies and programs focus on the positive—telling people they can achieve their body goals if they just exercise enough willpower and deny themselves the unhealthy foods and habits that are keeping them overweight. But the opposite approach—soberly informing dieters how tough it is to sustainably lose weight—may actually make dropping pounds easier, according to new research from Drexel University. To perform the study, psychologists gathered more than 250 overweight and obese people and put them through one of three different weight-loss methods for three years: behavior therapy, behavior therapy with meal substitutions, or a plan that focused on changing the foods people brought into the home (aka home-based food intervention, or HFE)....
