US skier Mikaela Shiffrin posted this powerful and uplifting video to her Instagram account for people dealing with hateful comments. Although people have shown overwhelming kindness in response to what the 26-year-old called “failures” and Shiffrin is aware of all the positives amid her defeat at the 2022 Winter Olympics, she wanted to share this

She said she had more tricks – well here are MORE TRICKS 💥 Eileen Gu earns a 95.25 in her second run!! 📺: @USA_Network & @peacockTV | #WinterOlympics pic.twitter.com/SueHuW7OQp — On Her Turf (@OnHerTurf) February 18, 2022 Eileen Gu has officially won her third Olympic medal, claiming gold in women’s freeski halfpipe at the 2022

According to the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), more than 200 million Americans have received their COVID-19 booster shots — and those millions of people are starting to wonder exactly how long the booster’s protection lasts. Exactly how long do you have before the booster starts to weaken? And will a fourth dose

Canada has won gold after a dominant women’s ice hockey tournament at the 2022 Olympics in Beijing. The Canadians beat Team USA 3-2 to claim their fifth Olympic gold in women’s hockey, closing out a historic tournament that saw them enter the gold-medal match with an Olympic-record 54 goals. In the end, it was their

Whether you’re a big hockey fan or not, you probably know what went down during the women’s gold medal match at the 2018 Winter Olympics. You know, the one where the US women’s hockey team won their first gold medal in 20 years after defeating Canada in a sudden-death shoot-out. That historic win wouldn’t have

Although there are many elements that make up a figure skating program, there are few that are as difficult as the triple axel. While the jump is a mainstay in men’s figure skating, it’s still relatively rare in the women’s event. Among the women competing at the 2022 Winter Olympics in Beijing, few have ever

On Valentine’s Day, the day after Mary J. Blige had the Super Bowl LVI crowd bumpin’, Peloton announced Blige as the next musician to be featured in its Artist Series through an Instagram post. “Our new Artist Series is certified hateration- AND holleration-free,” the workout platform says in the caption. While the post also states

I started running in 2017 as an inexpensive way to improve my physical and mental health. Five years later, I’ve learned a lot about myself. I’ve gained new appreciation for my body and what it can do, developed impressive willpower, and feel so much stronger — in every sense of the word. But while I

To commemorate Erin Jackson’s 500m speed-skating gold medal win on Feb. 13, the Olympic Games Instagram page posted a video of the giggling athlete stepping onto the ice for the first time. The Olympic Games reposted Jackson’s video from her Instagram (above) in which, at the four-year mark of her speed-skating career, she reflected on

Figure skater Kamila Valieva of the Russian Olympic Committee has tested positive for trimetazidine, a substance banned by the World Anti-Doping Association (WADA), NBC confirmed in its primetime broadcast on Feb. 9. There was no update on how this will affect the results of the figure skating team competition, where Valieva skated two programs to

Freestyle skier Eileen Gu wears many hats — most recently, Olympic champ — but the one that may be most important to her is role model. Gu, who was born and raised in California, has been outspoken about her mission to inspire young Chinese skiers since making the decision to compete for China back in

You’d be silly to think the world of nondairy milks has reached its limit because, as demonstrated by the plethora to choose from — soy, almond, cashew, oat, and even milk made from potatoes and pea protein — nondairy-milks can be made out of anything. So why stop there? Is there another grain we can

If you’re watching curling at the Winter Olympics (and really, how could you not?), you might have noticed something unusual about the stones used in competition: a set of lights near the handles that glow green from time to time. In a sport that’s mostly conducted using low-tech equipment like chunks of granite and “brooms,”

Prince Charles tested positive for COVID on Thursday morning, and Queen Elizabeth II is “being monitored” for symptoms, a source confirmed with Us Weekly. The two saw each other on Tuesday, two days before his diagnosis, at an event at Windsor Castle where the Queen is staying. The Queen, 95, is fully vaccinated and is

Trimetazidine, also known as TMZ, is a drug used to treat the heart condition angina, so it might seem strange that it’s also considered a banned substance by the World Anti-Doping Association (WADA). That’s because WADA lists trimetazidine as a “metabolic modulator,” a type of drug that, according to a 2011 review, effects the heart

[embedded content] Grammy-award winning singer John Legend is giving you the gift of a lifetime: the chance to sleep with him (well, sort of). See a sneak peek of his funny-sexy Headspace ad airing during this Sunday’s 2022 Super Bowl Game. It features Legend lying on a rug in front of a fireplace, holding a

For Nathan Chen, the 2022 Olympics in Beijing were about proving that he could do what he does so well — skate dazzling, quad-packed routines — under the pressure of the Olympic spotlight. After the men’s free skate on Feb. 9 (Feb. 10 in Beijing), Chen’s status is secured. His brilliant free skate, along with

Beijing 2022 marks Lindsey Jacobellis’s fifth Winter Olympics, and on Feb. 9, she clinched snowboard cross Olympic gold for the very first time. It was also Team USA’s first gold at these Beijing Games, and NBC Sports’s On Her Turf reports that, at 36, she’s now the oldest American woman to win a medal at

The Winter Olympics are arguably more about speed than anything else. You know speed skating is fast because “speed” is literally in the name, and if you’ve ever tuned in to downhill skiing, you know how fast those athletes fly. Incredibly, though, luge is considered the fastest sport at the Games. According to the official

She may be heading into her second Winter Olympics, but mark our words: Chloe Kim is just getting started. After taking an extended break from the sport, the 21-year-old snowboarder is back in action, recently winning her sixth consecutive competition since her debut last season. After clinching back-to-back world championships, Kim is a near shoo-in

Nathan Chen is leaving PyeongChang where it belongs (at least for him): in the past. After posting a career-best short program in the 2022 Olympics team event, Chen went and pushed even higher in the individual short program, scoring a stunning 113.97. That was enough to top the standings, yes, but it also set a

As the 2022 Winter Olympics in Beijing get underway, curling is one of the first sports to get its competition started. This challenging but admittedly quirky sport is always a fan favorite at the Olympics, but if you only watch it once every four years, you might not have a firm grasp on how the

Figure skater Kamila Valieva just made history at the 2022 Beijing Games. During her team-event free skate, Valieva became the first woman to successfully land a quad jump at the Olympics, a huge feat to go along with the 15-year-old’s first Olympic medal (a team-event gold, naturally). And in true Valieva fashion, she didn’t stop

The figure skating competition at the 2022 Winter Olympics is in full swing, with the team event kicking things off in the opening days of the Olympics. If you’re new to figure skating, you might not recognize this event, which itself hasn’t been around that long. So how does this “team” competition work? The team

Figure skating at the 2022 Olympics in Beijing kicked off on Feb. 4 with the team event, and apparently Team USA decided to put on a show. Through three disciplines so far, the US has a somewhat surprising lead over the Russian Olympic Committee, courtesy of career-best programs from Nathan Chen, Madison Hubbell and Zachary

According to a new study published in “PLOS One,” ASMR videos could help alleviate anxiety. ASMR, which stands for autonomous sensory meridian response, is the whole-body sensation some people experience when they hear certain trigger sounds, such as a person whispering, paper crinkling, seltzer bubbles fizzing, or scoring sourdough. ASMR is described as an intensely

Trying to regulate my digestion is a balancing act, to say the least. Sometimes I poop several times in a day, and other times not at all. As a college student, the stress of school threw off my already barely-there pooping schedule, so I regularly took prebiotics to help regulate my gut — and it
