Morgan Bullock first started taking dance classes when she was three years old and fell in love with Irish dance when she was 10. Now, at 21, she’s recognized as one of the top 50 dancers at the World Irish Dance Championships. She’s been invited by the Prime Minister of Ireland to perform at their

As workout enthusiasts, we feel like we try all different kinds of workout clothes, and we’ve become experts on what we want to wear when we’re moving. For us, that’s a workout crop top. For one thing, we love high-waisted leggings, and the proportions of a crop top are usually perfect with that waistline. Sometimes

As someone who likes to exercise, and also has a larger chest, finding great sports bras is, to put it lightly, a journey. I can find styles I like that are cute and comfortable but not suitable for high-impact activity, or vice versa, but never both. Plus, unless sports bras are sized like regular bras,

It’s most common to sneeze from a tickle in your nose or to feel stuffy and irritable when you have a cold, but if you ever find yourself sneezing at the dinner table, you’re not alone — and oddly enough, your symptoms probably have nothing do with allergies. Here’s what’s actually happening and why you

It’s not easy to share any kind of health journey on social media, which is why we’re always grateful when the one and only Lizzo takes a moment to drop her latest vegan recipe recommendations or give an honest update about her mental health. Today, Lizzo opened up about learning to love a part of

There’s a lot of waste when it comes to contacts, particularly for those who wear dailies. Changing your contacts every day means throwing away around 30 pairs per month, plus all of the packaging. But glasses aren’t for everyone, and there’s no denying that dailies are more convenient and hygienic than contacts you have to

If you want that deep muscle burn, and you want it with low-impact, low-space moves that require little to no equipment, give barre a try. It’s one of our favorite styles of training to challenge your muscles, balance, and stamina, and you don’t need much more than your bodyweight and some sweat. OK, maybe a

It’s hard to beat the convenience of one-click ordering online and have shampoo, paper towels, and a $20 sweater delivered to your doorstep in two days. But if 2020 has taught me anything, it’s that small businesses are the backbone of the community. It’s what makes New York City the greatest city in the world:

Sneaking movement into your daily routine is a simple way to make sure you’re staying active. If you have to run an errand in your neighborhood, walk or bike to the store instead of driving. Not to say you can’t ever take the elevator again, but opt for the stairs when you’re only climbing a

If you’ve ever sat down to watch Netflix, blinked, and realized you just spent three hours admiring Regé-Jean Page on Bridgerton, then you know how easy it is to lose track of time. Most nights, I dream of big plans for the next day — wake up at 6 a.m., work out, drink tons of

When you’re trying a new workout for the first time, the last thing you want to worry about is your outfit. Your mind is busy enough trying to master the moves — you shouldn’t have to think about your sports bra not being supportive enough or the waistband of your leggings starting to slip. So,

I’ve been a vegetarian for years, and it’s not because I adore nuts and leafy greens — in fact, pizza and donuts are among my favorite foods. Fortunately, there are lots of ways to get the nutrients your body needs. Since I stopped eating meat in 2016, I’ve learned how to sneak nutrition into meals

There’s nothing wrong with setting lofty fitness goals for yourself, but what happens when you fall behind, start skipping workouts, or lose motivation? What if you’re too daunted to even start? It’s amazing how quickly fitness stops feeling fun and starts to become a chore. That’s why we came up with POPSUGAR’s first-ever 28-Day Fitness

I suffered a miscarriage in my first trimester and that loss has shaped and changed who I am at my core. So much of who I was before this loss is unrecognizable to me, and I’m realizing that I can’t go back to the “before” version of myself no matter how hard I try. There

Some experts are debating whether you should avoid alcohol before and after you get the COVID-19 vaccine because of how it might impact your immune response. But one doctor we spoke to offered a different reason you might want to skip the drinks around the time of your vaccination: alcohol could increase the likelihood that

Update, Oct. 26: Johnson & Johnson is planning on resuming its large-scale Phase 3 “Ensemble” human trial that began in September and was paused in mid-October. According to The Washington Post, a man who received a vaccination during the trial suffered a stroke that could have been triggered by an infection, but after an investigation,

When you hit a fitness plateau — or you’re just bored with your regular workout routine — and want to amp things up, try using resistance bands! These stretchy yet firm bands go around your thighs, calves, ankles, feet, hands, or arms to make every movement more challenging. In fact, resistance bands are just as

So, I have a little red Prada nylon backpack that I’ve owned for decades that goes everywhere with me. Running errands for returns, hiking on the isle of Dominica… I truly understood that 10 Things I Hate About You line, “… but I love my Prada backpack.” However, taking a look at it this summer,
