Iconic WWE Superstar, Nia Jax, and impactful newcomer, Lash Legend are the current WWE Women’s tag team champions, and while these “Irresistible Forces” should be considered the underdogs as they defend their belts against three top teams at WrestleMania 42—it could be foolish to bet against them in Sin City. These strong women talked to M&F Hers to share how their different paths have converged to build an unstoppable prospect. “I think we blend seamlessly,” says Nia Jax (real name: Savelina Fanene) as the two sit down to chat, before the chaos inevitably ensues at WrestleMania 42 in Las Vegas. “I’m getting the cheat code,” adds Lash Legend, aware of the incredible career that her tag team partner has already carved out for herself.

At first glance, the Pallof press looks easy. You stand side-on to the resistance and press out, then back, without rotating or losing your balance. You can’t feel it or load it as you would in a traditional strength exercise , so many dismiss it. The Pallof press is frowned upon because lifters miss the nuisance of it. Your core’s job is to resist movement, stabilize your spine, and transfer force under heavy loads. That’s where the Pallof press shines. The Pallof press trains your core to remain stable as you move and resist. That ability, resisting rotation and maintaining position, separates lifters who leak strength from those who stay tight while getting after it. But many stop at the standard version. Once you start layering in different stances, positions, and stability challenges, the Pallof press becomes another effective tool for strengthening the core. Full-Body Exercises Is the Pallof Press the Best Core Exercise Ever? We take a deep dive into the mechanics behind...

Injectable GLP-1 hormone agonists like Ozempic and Mounjaro are known to reduce appetite and can result in significant weight loss, but what happens when you stop taking them? A new study from the Cleveland Clinic looked at almost 8,000 patients to find out, and the results are in. The new study, published by the Journal of Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism comes after a previous analysis suggested that people tend to regain their unwanted weight quickly after discontinuing use. While that previous review had been based on set programs and randomized trials, the new research looked at what was happening in the real world, where people are able to chop and change their weight losing strategies.

Most people in fitness know how to train. That’s not the problem. The issue is they don’t know how to talk about it. That’s what stood out most in a conversation with author and keynote speaker Jen Gottlieb. Before she became a speaker and entrepreneur, she was a personal trainer herself – someone who understood the work, but struggled with the part that actually gets people in the door: communication. “You go from being able to hide behind a role,” she told Muscle & Fitness, “to having to actually be yourself, and you’re risking being judged.” For a lot of trainers and fitness creators, that fear shows up in familiar ways—overthinking, hesitation, or waiting until everything feels perfect before posting anything at all. But as Gottlieb sees it, finding your voice isn’t about confidence showing up first. It’s about putting in the reps until it does. And in a space where attention is tied directly to opportunity, learning how to communicate might matter just as much as knowing h...
