The 2022 Beijing Olympics are well underway, and we’ve already seen medals and record-breaking performances. In figure skating, Nathan Chen performed his highest-scoring short program ever in the team event, only to beat that score days later in the individual short-program competition. The “Quad King” also set a new short-program world record with his individual

She may be heading into her second Winter Olympics, but mark our words: Chloe Kim is just getting started. After taking an extended break from the sport, the 21-year-old snowboarder is back in action, recently winning her sixth consecutive competition since her debut last season. After clinching back-to-back world championships, Kim is a near shoo-in

Nathan Chen is leaving PyeongChang where it belongs (at least for him): in the past. After posting a career-best short program in the 2022 Olympics team event, Chen went and pushed even higher in the individual short program, scoring a stunning 113.97. That was enough to top the standings, yes, but it also set a

The popular Whole30 program has been around since 2009, but until now, there wasn’t a specific program for those who follow a vegetarian or vegan diet — until now. The new Plant-Based Whole30 program just launched, and it’s perfect for those who don’t eat meat or eggs, but still want to get the benefits of

Devastating to watch, U.S. skier Nina O’Brien suffered a scary crash on her second run of the giant slalom at the Beijing 2022 Olympics at the Yanqing National Alpine Skiing Centre on Monday. Going at top speed, the 24-year-old lost her balance, and her legs spread wide as she crashed into one of the gates

Figure skater Kamila Valieva just made history at the 2022 Beijing Games. During her team-event free skate, Valieva became the first woman to successfully land a quad jump at the Olympics, a huge feat to go along with the 15-year-old’s first Olympic medal (a team-event gold, naturally). And in true Valieva fashion, she didn’t stop

American figure skaters have been among the best in the world in ice dance for the past decade or so. The best of the best, though, has to be partners Meryl Davis and Charlie White. At the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi, they became the first American team to win the gold medal in ice

Although there are many elements that make up a figure skating program, there are few that are as difficult as the triple axel. While the jump is a mainstay in men’s figure skating, it’s still relatively rare in the women’s event. Among the women competing at the 2022 Winter Olympics in Beijing, few have ever

Figure skating at the 2022 Olympics in Beijing kicked off on Feb. 4 with the team event, and apparently Team USA decided to put on a show. Through three disciplines so far, the US has a somewhat surprising lead over the Russian Olympic Committee, courtesy of career-best programs from Nathan Chen, Madison Hubbell and Zachary

The figure skating competition at the 2022 Winter Olympics is officially underway, which means you’re going to be hearing a lot about quads for the next couple of weeks. This time, it’s not just because Nathan Chen — who’s affectionately known as the quad king — is set to compete for Olympic gold. In the

According to a new study published in “PLOS One,” ASMR videos could help alleviate anxiety. ASMR, which stands for autonomous sensory meridian response, is the whole-body sensation some people experience when they hear certain trigger sounds, such as a person whispering, paper crinkling, seltzer bubbles fizzing, or scoring sourdough. ASMR is described as an intensely

Trying to regulate my digestion is a balancing act, to say the least. Sometimes I poop several times in a day, and other times not at all. As a college student, the stress of school threw off my already barely-there pooping schedule, so I regularly took prebiotics to help regulate my gut — and it

If you’ve ever watched even one Olympics opening ceremony, you’ve probably noticed something particular about the Parade of Nations: Greece always walks in first. No matter where the Olympics are held, the Greek delegation traditionally enters first, and there’s a very simple explanation for this. As NBC Sports has reported, Greece’s position of honor in

I know that you read this headline and probably laughed. “Potato milk? Isn’t that just vodka?” you thought to yourself. You thought whole milk was making a comeback. You thought — silly you! — that we’d collectively reached a saturation point on alternative milks. Folks, it’s 2022, and we have yet to reach that limit.

The COVID-19 vaccine does come with side effects, and there have long been rumors and misinformation that infertility is one of them. A prospective study published last month aims to put some of those fears to rest. The study, led by researchers at the Boston University School of Public Health (BUSPH), found that the COVID-19

There’s a chance you’ve developed some sort of plan of attack for treating a pimple on your chin or forehead. Perhaps it involves not picking at it (right?!), a spot treatment you swear by, a special antiacne cleanser, or specific guidance straight from your dermatologist. But do you know what to do when a pimple

For most of us, planks don’t typically last a long time. Your core starts shaking, your arms start wobbling, your abs are on fire — about 30 seconds in, your body is yelling at you to wrap this up. But for marathoner and running coach Lorena Millan, planking became a personal challenge she knew she

I’m never going to be one of those people who loves to run. I’ve tried over and over again, jogging on tracks, treadmills, and through the woods. I just don’t enjoy it. But I do enjoy walking. Getting in steps is my favorite way to spend my lunch hour, and my husband and I look

If you’ve ever experienced black toenails or blisters, run coach Alysha Flynn says lacing the top hole of your sneakers can help because it locks your heel in place. Heel-lock lacing

She was close, with a few 9.95s on beam — but the University of Oklahoma fifth-year senior finally earned that elusive 10.00 in a home meet against the University of Denver on Jan. 30. In the

Mustering up the energy to work out isn’t always easy. Take it from me: I genuinely love getting my sweat on — so much so that I typically work out twice in one day (a run in the morning followed by a strength or HIIT session in the afternoon). But am I jumping out of

When it comes to getting healthier and toning up your body, one of the most popular of the countless options out there right now is intermittent fasting.

One of the biggest storylines heading into the 2022 Winter Olympics is figure skater Nathan Chen, who will be looking for a bit of redemption after finishing just off the podium in the Olympic men’s singles event in 2018. Over the past four years, Chen has been nearly unbeaten, winning six consecutive national titles and

Brie Larson has long been one of our fitness inspirations for the way she constantly and creatively challenges her body.

Bouts of stress and anxiety sneak up on all of us, but this year, I’ve made it my mission not to let them beat me down. When I start to feel panicked, I try to take inventory of the situation and focus on gaining perspective. It might sound counterintuitive, but I’ve discovered that the easiest
