It’s been 14 years (wow) since the first High School Musical came out, and yes, I can still sing every lyric. I may also have the CD soundtrack buried somewhere in my childhood bedroom and the songs are definitely still chilling on my old iPod nano. One thing I never could get down? The dance

Because there’s no such thing as too many sports documentaries, today Apple released the first trailer for Greatness Code, a short form series spotlighting untold stories from some of the world’s greatest athletes.

Simone Biles has spoken before about her reaction to the Olympics being postponed: tears, then acceptance that it was the right decision, according to a Today show interview in April. In a MasterClass livestream on June 24, she went into even more detail about the pandemic’s effect on her training and mindset. “In the beginning
From disappointment comes opportunity, at least for Maggie Nichols.

But

When competing, and even during the off-season, surfers are almost always on the move.

There are mixed feelings about workout shorts, but we’re firmly pro, and here’s why. Especially when it’s hot outside, it feels so freeing to be able to really move your legs. Plus, you don’t have to worry about them falling down in the same way that you do leggings, and they look so cute on!

Those smart folks are onto something: Exercising in nature actually quiets the part of the brain associated with overthinking, says research published by PNAS. (Can we say “yes, please”?!)
Demi Lovato and Kelly Clarkson know that taking care of your mental health is an ongoing process. On Thursday, the 27-year-old singer and mental health advocate hopped online for an appearance on The Kelly Clarkson Show, where she praised the daytime host for setting such a strong example for her as a youth. “You were

Although I consider myself a fan of fall, I’ll admit, there’s nothing quite like summer weather. During warmer months, the first thing I do when I wake up during the summer is check that little blue weather app, praying for a clear day and a pleasant — not too hot — temperature. On days like
