We all grow older. There is nothing we can do about that, but the quality of those years is within our control, as recent research has shown.After receiving a doctor’s approval to begin any exercise program, aging adults who have not been physically active for decades should start their fitness journey with the basics, such as walking and stretching. Once a solid foundation is built, though, a regular, higher-intensity exercise program can lead to remarkable improvements in heart health, according to one study.That study covered a two-year, high-intensity interval training (HIIT) program and its effects on sedentary individuals 50 to…

When you open the AllTrails app and zoom in on Chicago running routes, you’ll see nearly 200 options across the city. Zoom in even further and you’ll find the beating heart of each neighborhood: solo runners hitting their coffee shop commute before work or running clubs going door to door to their favorite restaurants, like Cozy Noodles n’ Rice. HOKA athlete Chef Tee is the chef–owner at Cozy Noodles n’ Rice in Wrigleyville. He started running casually just to stay in shape, but quickly got swept up in the running spirit that fuels the city. In 2014, Chef Tee got…
In our society, we’re supposed to be free to not just say what we think, but to challenge lawmakers on measures before they pass. We’re supposed to be able to have our voices heard by our elected representatives so they know where we stand on the laws they wish to pass. Silencing opinions is a terrible precedent, especially when people have taken the time out of their days and lives to attend public meetings and were scheduled to speak.In the US Virgin Islands, they’re currently considering a measure that would ban so-called assault weapons, suppressors,…

This article was originally published by Michael Snyder at The End of the American Dream. Do you know why Joe Biden never gave Tomahawk cruise missiles to Ukraine while he was in the White House? Even at such an extremely advanced state of mental decline, Biden still understood that allowing the Ukrainians to have such missiles would put us right on the brink of nuclear war. In addition to supplying the missiles, we would have to supply the delivery platforms, and we would literally have to guide the missiles to their targets. So from Russia’s perspective, these would be American…
The National Firearms Act is not a particularly good law, and in this day and age, it’s been proven to also be a very ineffective one. Machine gun conversions are plentiful, and criminals are laying down a lot more fire than your average citizen can hope to match. And then we have short-barreled firearms and suppressors, which no longer have a tax on them, but still have to go through the whole rigamarole with the ATF and be registered, even though the registration is supposed to just be a list of who all has paid…
Sam’s Throne, a popular campground in the Ozark-St. Francis National Forest in Arkansas, was the site of tragedy this week. On October 2, local sheriffs found a 60-year-old man deceased in one of the campsites, likely from a bear attack. The suspected animal was tracked and euthanized by the sheriff’s department, with assistance from locals and the Arkansas Game and Fish Commission. The incident marks Arkansas’s second bear-related fatality in a month. What Happened According to a press release from the Newton County Sheriff’s Office, authorities received a call from the victim’s son. He knew his father was camping at…
A visiting Harvard professor from Brazil who also works for a Soros-funded think tank that promotes “strengthening control of guns and ammunition” has been placed on administrative leave after he was arrested last week for shooting a pellet gun near a synagogue on Yom Kippur. Carlos Portugal Gouvêa claims he was shooting at rats last Wednesday night, though if that was the case he either has terrible aim or Brookline, Massachusetts is home to some Rodents of Unusual Size, since police found a car window shattered with a pellet inside when they responded to Temple…

At 4 a.m. on opening day, I found myself in the darkness, ripping through soaking-wet, thorn-infested brush. I was trying to locate the tree I had selected to hunt from weeks before. On that previous adventure through the head-high brush, I got ripped to shreds, but this time, my hands were wisely protected by the Kings Camo XKG Primaloft Guide Gloves. Sure, I was turned around, but at least my hands weren’t bleeding. I’m a pretty recent glove convert. In the past, the loss of dexterity when wearing even the thinnest gloves drove me up a wall, and I usually…
The Trump Administration has overturned former President Joe Biden’s “90-day pause” on firearms exports, which has been in effect since March 2024.

Under the Biden Administration infringement, there were three new Export Control Classification Numbers (ECCN) for semi-automatic rifles, pistols and shotguns. Licenses…

While the governor unveiled his plan to bring lawmakers back to the state capitol on Monday, October 6 for a week-long session, he didn”t actually schedule a session. Well, it’s Monday morning, and though there might be some lawmakers hanging around the capitol complex, there is no special session underway. 🚨 REMINDER: There is no special session today.

This article was originally published by Zoey Sky at Natural News. The U.S. is rapidly expanding its missile arsenal, driven by fears of a future war with China and the depletion of its weapons stockpiles from supplying Ukraine. This has pushed the world closer to a major conflict. The Pentagon has ordered a massive increase in production of both defensive and offensive missiles, signaling preparation for a large-scale, high-intensity war, likely over a potential Chinese invasion of Taiwan. This military buildup is happening while the U.S. is taking a more provocative stance in Ukraine, now providing intelligence to help Ukraine…
The thing that kind of irks me the most about the Second Amendment debate is that while it should be non-partisan, it largely is. There are almost no elected pro-gun Democrats running around, after all. There are pro-gun Democrats, but it seems most of them are motivated more by issues that don’t involve gun rights when it comes to their voting, so we aren’t likely to see them put people in office. Then we’ve got Republicans who also seem to think that gun rights aren’t really a thing.Take former Congressman Greg Ganske. Sure, he’s out…
