Tons of home workouts swear they’ll make you stronger, but not all of them are actually good at that job. If your heart is beating out of your chest and you’ve lost count of how many dozens of reps you’ve done, what you’re doing is probably not a good strength-training workout.

I’ve had TSA Precheck for years, with no regrets. The fee works out to just $15 annually, and every time I’ve taken a trip by air and faced shorter lines at security, I’ve been glad I signed up. The only real hassle was that I had to take several hours out of my day to drive to the airport for an in-person interview.…

A Thanksgiving turkey is a big purchase—or at least, it’s a big bird with big dreams riding on it. Even if you know how much turkey to buy (two pounds per guest to ensure leftovers, and/or two smaller birds if you need more than 14 pounds), it can be harder to figure out what kind of turkey to buy.

A change of routine when you need to work or study is a good thing. Hell, I’ve even recommended changing your clothes to get into study mode. The more traditional approach to shaking things up is heading to a coffee shop to get stuff done, but there are a few things you should keep in mind when selecting one (besides…

The Roth IRA is a powerful retirement savings tool. For young people especially, it’s the best way to take full advantage of compound interest while minimizing your tax exposure.

With most services now charging a monthly fee, cutting back on fees wherever I can has become necessary. Eufy’s one-time purchase structure became one of its biggest selling points for me when choosing my security cameras, but it doesn’t come without trade-offs. Right now, you can get the Floodlight Cam E221 for…

When you think searching the internet, you undoubtedly think of Google (unless you’re the one person who thinks first of Bing). The search giant is ubiquitous because it’s fast, free, and better at what it does than most of its competitors. But not everything about Google is amazing. While it’s technically free to…

Japanese soufflé pancakes are fluffy, impressively tall, entirely Instagram-able, and they taste great to boot. You don’t have to go to a restaurant to have your own towering breakfast cake. Soufflé pancake batter isn’t all that different from regular pancake batter; it’s the slow cooking time that makes the process…

The Northern Hemisphere is going into soup mode right now, but soup itself has (at least) two modes: brothy, with stuff bopping around in it, and blended, with the ingredients pulverized into creamy oblivion. Both have the power to warm from within, but pureed soups pack tons of flavor into a single spoonful—and you…

There’s a lot to like about the Pixel Watch 2, Google’s latest Android smartwatch. For starters, the battery finally lasts all day, even when using the always-on display.
