Three glute exercises that improve hip mobility, stability and overall strength

No. 1: Quadruped leg lifts (strengthens entire core and glutes)
Start on the hands and knees, engage your core, and lift one leg off the floor (bent or straight). Pulse up and down a few inches for 30 to 60 seconds, then repeat on the other leg.

No. 2: Clamshells (strengthens gluteus medius)
Lie on your side with knees bent at 90 degrees in front of you. Lift your top knee away from your bottom knee, then lower slowly.

For an increased challenge, lift both feet off the ground while keeping the heels together. Repeat for 30 to 60 seconds per side.

No. 3: Glute bridges (strengthens lower back and glutes)
Lie on your back with knees bent and feet parallel, a few inches from your hips. Engage your abs, and squeeze your glutes to lift your hips toward knee height, then lower.

Arnold Schwarzenegger’s COMMON SENSE diet for the brain

“I’m asking you to go on an all-out, no holds barred, Zero Negativity Diet for one week,” said the action star. “I want you to get a taste of what life can be when you don’t allow pessimism, cynicism, outrage, and all those other mood-killers in.

“Because let’s be honest for a second: all the negativity we are surrounded by today isn’t just a mood-killer. It is literally killing you.”

Scientists have discovered optimistic people live 11 to 15% longer and have 50 to 70% higher odds of living to 85 — or beyond.

Step 1: No doom scrolling. Arnold wants you to kick your social media habit.

Step 2: Reframing negativity into a map forward. “I don’t want to pretend your life is going to be all rainbows,” he admits.

Step 3: Do a couple of gratitude reps every day. “Even when it feels like there is nothing else you can do; I want you to do one thing: write down one thing you are grateful for,” said Arnold.

Vibration Plates: Benefits and Exercises

Mixed reviews on benefits of vibration plate workouts. “They may help improve strength, balance, and bone density, relieve chronic pain, boost brain health, [lymphatic circulation] and contribute to weight loss. That said, more research is needed.” Sessions should be done under the approval of your medical advisor, and only for brief, low intensity settings.

[I find it works great on sore muscles & joints, particularly after other exercise sessions… and my cat loves jumping on between my feet to join the fun!]
