Olympic diving is already an awe-inspiring event to watch, but after seeing three-time Canadian Olympic diver Jennifer Abel during her behind-the-scenes, dry-land practice, we’re even more impressed. Did you even know divers use all this equipment to perfect their dives out of the water? It’s incredible! We’re dizzy just watching her backflipping on the trampoline

We love Kayla Itsines’s heart-pumping HIIT workouts that will leave you dripping with sweat. She’s not afraid to throw in a burpee (or several!), jumping jacks, jump squats, and other bodyweight moves that are great for cardio but not so good on your joints if repeated over and over. This is why she has released

There’s no bad time to sweat it out, in our opinion, but if you like to schedule your workouts in advance, grab your calendar: we’ve got three live routines coming up this week on our Instagram page and YouTube channel, and you’re not gonna want to miss out.

No matter what sport you’re tuning into, you’ll always see the best of the best break away from the pack to solidify themselves as truly great. Take Simone Biles: she’s arguably the greatest gymnast of all time. She already has four skills named after her, meaning she was the first to land them successfully in

Women are often made to feel like our bodies need to meet society’s standards. It can be especially difficult to feel good about yourself in the age of social media, when you’re constantly comparing yourself to models, influencers, and celebrities who are widely followed and adored. I’ll admit that I sometimes scroll through my Instagram

As humans it’s essential we drink water to survive, but it’s tough to stay hydrated on the go. While pre-packaged plastic water bottles are an often tempting option for mobile sipping, their single-use plastic leaves devastating impacts on our environment (80 percent of single-use water bottles end up in landfills). Instead of hurting our Earth,

Editor’s Note: We at POPSUGAR recognize that people of many genders and identities have vaginas and uteruses and experience periods, not just those who are women.

A year into riding my Peloton, one thing still rings true and has since the very beginning: a Peloton is a pain in the butt, literally. Sitting on a bike is uncomfortable as it is, even when it’s properly adjusted, but mix in Tunde Oyeneyin’s ass-kicking HIIT workouts and the new Megan Thee Stallion classes

This shouldn’t be news to you, but the USA Basketball Women’s National Team has gone undefeated at the Olympic Games since 1996, and the team will vie for its seventh straight Olympic gold medal in Tokyo this summer.

Have you ever watched a figure skating program that truly took your breath away? The best routines are a stunning combination of dizzying spins, graceful choreography, and impossible-looking jumps landed on the thinnest of blades. Set it all to music, and you get, well, pure art. Now, about that music. Today, figure skaters can get

Despite how much I look forward to sleeping every day, it can be so hard to make myself go to bed. I always get sucked into the latest drama on Twitter or yet another true crime documentary — and suddenly, the idea of getting to bed on time feels like a distant memory. I’ve known

I grew up in a household where dessert was an everyday occurrence and my grandfather’s Italian-American heritage meant that pasta was on the menu every other day. My health and wellness journey began when I got a bit older and decided I wanted to become physically healthier as a means of feeling more confident. I

Ready to run the Pride Lands? runDisney just announced a brand-new Virtual Series of 5Ks themed after a true classic: The Lion King.

Melatonin is a natural hormone that signals to the body when it’s time to sleep, making melatonin supplements one of the most effective sleep aids on the market.

As someone who struggles with stress and anxiety, I’ve flirted with almost every coping strategy out there. I take hot showers to calm my nerves, light essential oil candles, pile on blankets for weighted comfort, and follow self-care accounts on social media — and to a certain degree, all of these things help. However, once

Kenya’s Ruth Chepngetich ran her way into the history books at the N Kolay Istanbul Half Marathon on Sunday, breaking the women’s half marathon world record with a blazing-fast time of 1:04:01. We did the calculations, and that comes out to an average pace of 4:53 per mile (!) over 13.1 miles. Chepngetich sprinted right
