The opening ceremonies of the Olympics are always a chance for the host country to put on a spectacular show, making them one of the most anticipated moments of the Summer Games. Although the 2021 Olympics in Tokyo will be unlike any Games before them, all eyes will undoubtedly be on Japan’s Olympic Stadium when
Simone Manuel is headed to Tokyo, and we couldn’t be more excited to watch this now two-time Olympian compete. Though she won’t be swimming in the 100-meter freestyle — the event in which she won individual gold in Rio five years ago — the 24-year-old Texas native secured her spot on Team USA after winning
According to Tokyo-Games-bound long-distance runner Aliphine Tuliamuk, nothing is harder than 50 hours of labor — not any of the 26.2-mile races she’s ever done. “At least I know where the finish line is during a marathon,” she told POPSUGAR via email. Tuliamuk, whose daughter Zoe was born in January, requested that her baby accompany
When we think of tennis, we think of Venus Williams. She’s been an icon for what feels like forever, and so when she came out with her line of activewear, Eleven by Venus Williams, it felt like a natural fit. Tennis and tennis clothes are having a moment right now, with more people picking up
The schedules are set and women’s soccer in the 2021 Olympics is ready to kick off on July 21. (Check out the US Women’s National Team’s Olympic schedule here.) It’s been a minute since the international soccer took center stage in the 2019 Women’s World Cup, so allow us to remind you how the USWNT
After testing positive for marijuana at the Olympic Trials last month and losing her spot in the women’s 100 meters, Sha’Carri Richardson has been left off the US 4×100 relay team and will officially miss Tokyo. Richardson has been suspended for a month after ingesting marijuana (which she said she used to cope after the
I’ll be honest and say I was never really a workout shorts person. I love my leggings, and I will wear them any chance I can. Bike shorts? Forget about it. I hadn’t thought they were very flattering on me, but when the temperatures rise, I have no choice but to ditch my leggings. When
ANNOVERA® is a long-lasting birth control option you can control. It’s a ring. It goes in your vagina. Notice we said “vagina” and not “the v-word.” Because when we talk like that about reproductive health, we’re apologizing for our bodies. So consider this an unapology, from ANNOVERA®. ANNOVERA® is a first-of-its-kind birth control that’s as
I’ve never met a celebrity workout I didn’t immediately want to try, and it’s especially tempting when the routine targets my glutes, takes five minutes, and doesn’t require a single piece of equipment, like the butt workout supermodel Kelly Gale posted today. I’ve tried Gale’s ab workouts in the past and they have definitely worked,
I’ve been having a great night of sleep when I wear an eye mask to block out light and earplugs to block out noise. I honestly didn’t think my sleep could be improved, until I tried out this Honeydew Side Sleeper Pillow ($100). I was skeptical that a pillow could make a difference, but after
Recovery post-workout can be a few stretches in a corner, but wouldn’t you rather have access a full-service spa? Then you might want to sign up for a membership at a health club spa. These wellness destinations house fitness centers, group classes, dining areas, full-service spas, and some even have coworking spaces. With so much
I know it’s a bad habit, but I definitely don’t always change my clothes immediately after a sweaty workout. My schedule has been packed with errands, work obligations, and events recently, so sometimes a shower between an at-home cycling class and a trip to the grocery store (then the dry cleaners and the bank) doesn’t
In March 2020, when New Yorkers could not go to gyms, I realized that I had to bring the gym to my apartment. In doing so, I realized just how expensive equipment can be. Thankfully, after some internet digging, I’ve found some options for inexpensive equipment including the following hand weights. If you’re choosing to
Getting cramps when you’re not expecting your period can feel a little confusing, but it’s not necessarily out of the ordinary. In fact, that discomfort you’re feeling in your abdomen might be a sign you’re at the ovulation stage of your menstrual cycle. According to Marco Mouanness, MD, an ob-gyn and fertility expert at the
Nike is standing with sprinter Sha’Carri Richardson after she tested positive for marijuana. On Friday, the United States Anti-Doping Agency announced the positive test and Richardson accepted a one-month suspension. She won the 100-meter race at the Olympic Trials last month and was set to head to Tokyo in a few weeks. Richardson has been
Veggies are the one of the best foods you can eat for weight loss because they’re low in calorie density, which means they have fewer calories per pound compared to other foods. POPSUGAR spoke to registered dietitians Kate Coufal, MS, RDN and Lonielle Freeman, RDN, to ask whether it makes a difference if your veggies
