The viral Hyrox horror: is the ‘go hard or go home’ attitude to exercise finally over? - AOL (opens the original)
Read excerpt
How far would you go to secure an impressive marathon time, or a Hyrox personal best? Maybe you’d turn down a boozy night out in favour of eight hours’ kip the night before? Or perhaps you’d swap sugary treats for protein shakes, and commit to a gruelling training plan in the run-up? It’s not uncommon for athletes to want to give it their all come race day – but few of us would go as far as the Australian Hyrox competitor Joanna Wietrzyk, who continued to take part in the hybrid fitness event a
Double cleansing: should we really be cleaning ourselves twice in each shower? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
This idea has suddenly gained huge popularity online. But is it just a way to sell us more products – and could it potentially damage our skin? Gone are the days of the speedy shower; a quick lather with a squirt of shower gel will, apparently, no longer cut it. Double cleansing – once the remit of facial skincare and shampoo routines – has steadily trickled into body-care, too. But should you simply stock up on twice as much shower gel?

When Phoebe Bridgers appeared at Venice international film festival with unshaven legs this weekend, it shouldnât have made headlines â but did. What do young women make of the current expectations around depilation? In 2026, female body hair feels as if it should be the least of anyoneâs concerns. But although we may think weâve come a long way since Julia Robertsâ unshaven underarm caused a furore at the 1999 London premiere of Notting Hill, depilation remains a staple of many womenâ

In 2026, female body hair feels as if it should be the least of anyone’s concerns. But although we may think we’ve come a long way since Julia Roberts’ unshaven underarm caused a furore at the 1999 London premiere of Notting Hill, depilation remains a staple of many women’s grooming routines – and when singer turned actor Phoebe Bridgers made her Venice film festival debut last weekend, her unshaven legs still made headlines.
