Is the bedroom the new gym?
what's got us buzzing
Is the bedroom the new gym?
Have you ever thought: "I'm going to skip the gym, stay home, and have sex instead." A recent survey by sexual wellness brand Lovehoney found that among its 2,000 adult participants, 71% of Americans consider sex a workout.

Other interesting findings: 10% of people track how many calories they burn every time they have sex. 12% regularly track their heart rates, too. Men (16%) check the stats more often than women (8%). Location matters, too –– people in Las Vegas, Salt Lake City, and New York are more likely to think this way than folks in other cities like San Diego or Seattle. If you're interested, check the map to see where your city ranks below.

Is the bedroom the new gym?
Yes, there are plenty of health benefits from having sex (and working out!) –– in addition to improved mood, immunity, and brain health, burning calories and boosting heart health are two of them. Depending on your sexual frequency and activity levels, you might still want to hit the gym or go for a walk to meet your daily step goal. But maybe an ~at-home workout~ every now and then can't hurt, right? These people might be onto something.

Tl;dr – 71% of Americans count sex as a workout. People across the United States regularly track their heart rate and calories burned, too. If you're looking for a sexy workout that doesn't actually include getting it on, these 4 non-sexual exercises can help you inside *and* outside the bedroom.

TUSHY Classic 3.0 Bidet Toilet Seat Attachment
TUSHY Classic 3.0 Bidet Toilet Seat Attachment
Post-poop is one of the most obvious times to use a bidet, but it's not the only one. Did you know that other great uses include cleansing after sex, giving birth, getting surgery, or any other time you need a quick rinse down there?
Most of our newsletter team is team-bidet, including myself. That's because bidets, like this one that I own by TUSHY, are a game changer that will take your bathroom hygiene to the next level.
First off, it's an easy install –– it only takes a few minutes, and you don't have to play around with any plumbing. Once it's set up, all you have to do is turn the knob when you're over the toilet, and voila! It'll leave you feeling way fresher down there than smearing, er, wiping ever could. In addition to the health perks, bidets are also more sustainable for the environment! Win win.

Your footwear can make you more productive
Monday Kick Start
Your footwear can make you more productive
Have you heard the latest TikTok trend for boosting productivity? Listen up: Wearing running shoes inside can trick your brain into focus mode to help you get things done, especially if you have ADHD.

What's the science around this? Some sort of magical foot-brain connection. "The shoes may be triggering people's brains for productivity because traditionally, they wear shoes when being active and productive," says licensed clinical psychologist and ADHD specialist Marcy Caldwell, PsyD. Just like walking around the house barefoot or in slippers might chill you out and make you less productive, adds psychologist Sanam Hafeez, PsyD. What you're doing here is basically playing mind games with yourself… and it works!

So, next time you need a little kick to get you going while working from home or trying to organize your closet, consider skipping the energy drink or super strong latte and putting on running shoes instead. Need a new pair? Check out our new list of the 10 best running shoes.

Health Hype Answer
True or False: Ditching Daylight Savings Time would be healthier for everyone.
True!
The clocks turned back yesterday, so now we've officially re-entered Standard Time and regained the hour we lost at the start of Daylight Savings Time back in March. Shifting from DST to ST has been hotly debated for decades, and this past March the Senate even passed a bill to do away with Standard Time all together and make DST permanent.

While leading scientists and health experts agree ditching the twice-a-year clock change is a good idea, they believe making DST permanent would come with significant health risks. Instead, research shows that adopting permanent Standard Time is a better idea because the negative effects of DST on human health and safety outweigh any potential benefits.

What negative effects, you ask? Institutions like the American Academy of Sleep Medicine warn that permanent DST may come with more health consequences linked to sleep and circadian rhythm disruption. Additionally, many states wouldn't see the sun until 8:30 am or later for a longer portion of the year, which has been linked to an increase in traffic accidents. Sure, DST may be important for some reasons (like more afternoon sunlight and saving money on energy costs), but the general consensus from the pros is that it's doing more harm than good.

To learn more, read our new article which highlights the many different impacts of DST on our well-being.
