Whether you’re trying to lose weight or gain weight — or even stay exactly the same — stepping on the scale is probably a regular part of your routine. But it’s not as simple as putting both feet on the scale, reading the number, and moving on. The timing of those check-ins can actually make

One of my favorite parts about the Peloton is that whenever I’m sick of cycling, I can roll it away and switch up my workout with one of Kristin McGee’s yoga classes. But there’s nothing worse than being in the middle of a killer leg lift and having to strain my neck to see what

When my cat scratched up my Peloton bike mat, I figured it wouldn’t make much of a difference if I just got rid of it entirely. Boy was I wrong — between the cycling shoes making scuff marks on the floor, my gross sweat forming a slippery puddle around me, and worse, the bike wobbling

In Swahili, kukuwa means “to grow.” It’s the perfect name for Kukuwa Kyereboah and her company Kukuwa Fitness, which in the past few decades has sprouted from a passion project to a global business.
