Drink more water When researchers measured people’s metabolic rate before and after downing about 16oz of water, they found a rise in calorie-burning capability. The water had a lasting effect as well: Even after 30 minutes, drinkers were using 30% more calories than those who stayed dry. Eat, then sweat… You must eat to get lean. Digesting food and absorbing and storing nutrients requires energy. Severely restricting calories dials back your metabolic rate....

Presidential style brings with it the thought of suiting. It’s just a reality: a majority of the time when we see an American president, he’s in a black, navy or gray suit.

The 44 American Heritage Brands That Defined the Way We Dress Today...

The Swedish stove crafters at Primus have developed a simple, effective and efficient canister stove system for overnight solo or paddling pairs. We were excited to put the svelte euro import to the test alongside our recent campstove lineup of backcountry standby classics. The Primetech’s simplification starts with a burner that has a wind shield integrated. No more scorched foil folding. Coupled with a ceramic nonstick-lined pot that features a built-in heat exchanger, which nests right on the burner, it only took 90 seconds to boil the day’s first precious 16 ounces for that morning cup of coffee (and four minutes for a full liter to reach a roiling boil)....

It’s likely you still haven’t wrapped your head around the idea of smoked ice, but it’s pretty simple to make—and well worth the effort. The easiest way is with a grill or smoker, if you have one. Follow these steps: Step #1 Add wood chips as if you were going to smoke a piece of meat—but instead put in a bowl of ice cubes. Step #2 Cold objects attract smoke, so the cubes will act as magnets and pull in the smoke flavoring....

With nations around the world dealing with the impact of the novel coronavirus/COVID-19 outbreak, it was only a matter of time before the 2020 Summer Olympics in Japan were postponed.

IOC member Dick Pound previously spoke with USA Today the day before the official word came out and said that “postponement has been decided” for the Olympic Games, with the event moving “likely to 2021....

AMONG PLYOMETRIC moves, box jumps are a favorite. They build explosive power, cardio capacity, and balance. Runners can get even more out of the move with a second box. “Split-­stance box jumps came from exploring sprinting mechanics,” says Ash­ton Roberts, founder of AR Performance Training in Pasadena, CA. They re­create and isolate the push off and landing that happens during running, giving you a bet­ter understanding of how your legs track during the entire running motion—what’s called proprioception....
