The kettlebell challenge is the creation of Greg Brookes, ‘trainer to the trainers’ and qualified kettlebell instructor. Kettlebell workouts are highly skilled, so I enjoyed leaning into the expertise of Brookes on this one and accepting I might learn a harsh lesson along the way. We’re no strangers to a kettlebell challenge: one Toms’s Guide fitness writer took on 100 kettlebell snatches a day for a week (and sported a few bruises for their efforts)....

This kettlebell leg workout promises bigger, stronger legs and glutes. It uses functional bodybuilding principles to increase your strength through your full range of motion, and you only need one medium or heavy kettlebell to get the job done. Alongside programming my workouts, I love to explore and test what is out there, and this one shoots up the charts alongside the latest dumbbell abs workout I tried and this 15-minute ab kettlebell workout....

Sculpting a strong core isn’t just an aesthetic goal — strong abdominal muscles are important for most sports, and can help relieve lower back pain and improve your posture. Remember, abs are made in the kitchen, so no amount of crunches or 10 minute ab workouts will tone your midsection if you’re not eating a healthy, balanced diet. Take a look at our guide to calculating your body fat percentage, and why it matters, here....

In the lead-up to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (opens in new tab) release of this data, some feared that consumer prices would soar past the 40-year high reached in June. But even with the lower-than-expected CPI figure — which dropped from 9.1% in June — providing a modicum of hope, consumers still feel the pinch of higher prices across the country. What’s pinching wallets across the country? Even though inflation has eased off of its 40-year high, there is still tremendous pressure on consumers’ budgets....

Take Memoji, for example. Apple’s avatars, which can be added to your contact information or sent in lieu of regular emojis in Messages, have a suite of new customization features in iOS 16. New hairstyles, headwear choices, nose shapes, lip colors and stickers are available in the latest software update to help your character look more like, well, you. As it turns out, I hadn’t altered my Memoji in nearly two years....

As you’ll see in our iPhone 14 vs iPhone 14 Pro preview, the Pro models are expected to get the more noteworthy changes, from a new A16 Bionic processor to a more powerful 48MP camera. Even the notch that dips down into the top of the display is likely to go away on the iPhone 14 Pro and Pro Max while sticking around on the iPhone 14. Meanwhile, the rumored iPhone 14 Max enjoys the benefit of being an entirely new model that will seemingly offer the larger screen that phone shoppers crave for a lower price than the similarly sized iPhone 14 Pro Max....

If you’ve seen an iPhone released since 2017, starting with the iPhone X, you’ve seen the notch. That’s black strip that dips down from the bezel at the top of the iPhone’s display into the screen itself. It’s there to house the iPhone’s front camera as well as all the sensors needed to support the Face ID unlocking feature. On the one hand, the notch gives Apple’s phones a very distinctive look....

Much like past iPhone products, Apple is certain to tout the iPhone 14 as an ideal handset for businesses, with increased security measures over Android. The veracity to Cupertino’s privacy claims are still somewhat suspect when compared to Android, but one area where Google has excelled has been in offering consumers increased SIM choices. That could be about to change. An analyst report claims that the iPhone 14 could see increased eSIM and dual SIM functionality for certain models, making it a more attractive option to business users and travelers....

That doesn’t seem to have worked out as planned. Demand for the 6.7-inch handset has underwhelmed, with multiple sources last month claiming they have been asked to cut production of components or halt it altogether. Things have not picked up since then, with the respected display analyst Ross Young now reporting on Twitter (opens in new tab) (paid subscription) that iPhone 14 Plus panel shipments are set to be “close to 0 in December as demand stalls for that model....

Reports that the iPhone 14 and iPone 14 Plus sales are slow compared to the Pro models are not a fluke. As you’ll see in our iPhone 14 vs iPhone 14 Pro comparison, the iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max have lots of features the standard iPhones lack. We’re talking about everything from the Dynamic Island and always-on display to the new 48MP main camera on the iPhone 14 Pro....

The high-profile victim that has brought the bug to wider attention is none other than Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman, who tweeted (opens in new tab) about his experience. This exposed exactly how widespread the bug has become, with users everywhere from Italy (opens in new tab) to the Philippines (opens in new tab) impacted. The problem seems to only impact those who use their iPhone’s eSIM chip, rather than a physical SIM card....

Iran will be on a high after a convincing 2-0 victory over Wales whereas the USA impressed in their draw with England. With the USA co-hosting the next World Cup they will want to gather all of the big stage experience for this young side that they can so progressing further is a must. Don’t miss the Iran vs USA live stream, and it’s easy to watch in the U....

The devices that worked for me have one thing in common: they encourage deep rhythmic breathing as a way to calm the nervous system and help you fall asleep faster. In the name of better sleep I’ve worn meditation headbands, spooned a sleep robot and listened to hundreds of hours of sleep music. One of the best devices for me was the Dodow, designed to help insomniacs fall asleep in eight minutes....

And while Paul’s 5-0 record is built on four KOs and a split-decision, he’s never really faced someone like Silva before. His previous wins were against the likes of fellow professionally-online-person AnEsonGib, former NBA player Nate Robinson (win via KO), former Bellator champ Ben Askren (another KO) and former UFC welterweight champ Tyron Woodley (another KO). You might say that Paul is the epitome of what people say about having “a puncher’s chance....

At one point this season, Brendan Rodgers looked like he was on borrowed time at Leicester, but it’s incredible what a few wins can do. Last weekend a 4-0 win away at Wolves (their first consecutive wins of the season) finally moved the Foxes out of the relegation zone. Although Leicester will be expecting better than their current 17th place, the club seems to be moving in the right direction again....

The computing power of the supposedly upcoming MacBook Pro with M2 Pro may have just been exposed, thanks to a newly posted Geekbench 5 benchmark result shared by ShrimpApplePro on Twitter (opens in new tab). The entry for a “Mac14,6”, perhaps referencing the new 14-inch MacBook Pro, contains an M2 Max chip within, rather than the M2 Pro chip we believe will come as standard. This Max chip contains a 12-core CPU (up from 8 cores in the basic Apple M2 chip) and a staggering 96GB of RAM, posting scores of 1,853 in the single-core test and 13,855 in the multi-core test....

The Quest 2 has gone up in price, rising by $100 but it offers a suite of improvements over the Oculus Quest, which arguably justify the step up in price; do note it wasn’t as expensive at launch. But at the same time, the Quest 2 has has a range of updates and upgrades to make it an even better VR headset than before, and make it the best VR headset around....
