Beginner: Static lunges – Step into a lunge and hold the position while going up and down. Focuses on form, balance, and lower-body strength.
Advanced: Lunge hops – Add a jump to switch legs. This explosive variation enhances agility, power, and cardio endurance.
Beginner: Standard deadlift – With both feet grounded, hinge at your hips to work on hamstrings and glutes. A great way to build posterior strength.
Advanced: Single-leg deadlift – Perform the same motion while balancing on one leg. This challenges stability, coordination, and core engagement.
Beginner: Sumo squats – A wider stance squat that's easier on the knees and targets the inner thighs and glutes.
Advanced: Pop squats – Add speed and a jump to turn it into a cardio and power move that spikes your heart rate.
Beginner: High plank – A static hold that strengthens your core, shoulders, and arms. Focus on form and breathing.
Advanced: Plank to beast – Dynamic movement from plank to a crouched position (beast pose) that works your core, stability, and mobility.
Beginner: Marching in place – A low-impact move to raise your heart rate gently and improve coordination and endurance.
Advanced: High knees – Drive your knees up at a fast pace to torch calories and build explosive cardio capacity.
Pro tip: Repeat the set 2–3 times, depending on your fitness level. This flexible format makes it easy to stay on track at home, at the hotel, or on the go.

Erik Gudbranson and Sarah Gudbranson(Image Via IG/@guddy44) Perhaps the event that took the lion's share of summer fame was Leon Draisaitl's wedding in the idyllic French countryside; yet for Sam Gagner and Erik Gudbranson, the celebration never really stopped. After having had their fill of a grand and magnificent wedding at Domaine de Manville situated in the heart of Les-Baux-de-Provence, the two NHL superstars with their families decided to continue the enchantment of their European holiday with more outings drenched in scenic beauty, delectable food, and light socializing in the warm sun. Sam Gagner and Rachel Gagner post-wedding trip Rachel Ganner used Instagram to post highlights of their trip(Image Via IG/@ After the wedding, we saw Sam Gagner, formerly of Edmonton, and his wife Rachel trade in formal wedding wear for never-ending vacation vibes. Their travels, however, weren't to stop in France forever, as they were soon seen accompanied by Erik Gudbranson, the Columbus Blue Jackets alternate captain, and his wife Sarah, enjoying an idyllic lakeside retreat. Rachel used Instagram to post highlights of their trip, including a funny moment when she declared, 'Can't get rid of them,' in reference to the friends who had forced themselves on the trip. Erik Gudbranson and Sarah Gudbranson join the fun The getaway did not qualify as a couple's trip; rather, it felt like a family affair(Image Via IG/@ The getaway did not qualify as a couple's trip; rather, it felt like a family affair. Photos had the group gathered for a little warmth and food inside a white gazebo by the lake, children included, and others. Another picture showed a vibe of casualness while four friends sat at the open rear of a camper van, soaking in a drink or five, and laughing, whereas there were others lying inside. The laid-back settings and cheerful company suggested that this was more than a sightseeing tour-pierce of friendship shared off the ice. Summer traveling and hockey annals Before Draisaitl's wedding, the Gagners already had the whole European summer to themselves. They found their way to Ibiza, Spain, where there were certainly more crossroads of hockey stars after Rachel's surprise meeting with Lauren McDavid, wife of Connor McDavid, at the Paris International Airport. Lauren was on her way to Italy, adding to the potentialities for the hockey-world meet-ups across Europe this summer.

Newborn In Australia Dies After Mother Uses Home-Birthing Pool Hired From Instagram Influencer
A newborn baby in Australia died after her mother gave birth at home using a birthing pool rented from Instagram influencer Emily Lal. According to The New York Post, the mother, Ms. E, rented a birthing pool from Emily Lal, also known as The Authentic Birthkeeper, who describes herself as being "disillusioned with the medical system". The incident happened in December 2022. After giving birth, Ms. E messaged Lal saying, "I did it", and planned to have a postpartum visit. However, she struggled to deliver the placenta until the next morning. It was then that she realised something was wrong with her baby. Ms. E sent Lal a message at 8 am saying, "We can't wake her, we aren't sure if she's breathing," along with a photo of the baby's blue face. However, Lal didn't see the message for 25 minutes. After seeing the message, Lal made a FaceTime call and, believing the baby was dead, instructed the parents to call an ambulance. Paramedics attempted CPR for 30 minutes but couldn't revive her. According to forensic pathologist Yeliena Baber, a hospital birth would have allowed for preventive measures to be taken. "If Baby E were born in a hospital and Ms. E had received appropriate antenatal care, it is highly unlikely that Baby E would have died, as she was a healthy baby and her death was caused by the prolonged delivery in a home birthing pool," Dr. Baber said. She further stated that a trained midwife present during the prolonged labour would have likely transferred the mother to a hospital if the baby showed signs of distress. The coroner concluded that the baby's death likely wouldn't have happened if the birth had occurred in a hospital or if it had been a planned home birth with proper midwife support. "A homebirth is distinguished from a 'freebirth', which is when someone chooses to birth their baby without medical or midwifery assistance. The publicly available information regarding water birth … is not directed at women intending to birth at home with no medical assistance or antenatal medical management,' she said. "The single consultation with (Ms. E's GP) late in the pregnancy provided no real opportunity for education to be given regarding birth options,'' she added.
