In 2017, the charismatic Swedish lawyer was thrust into the spotlight when she accepted the Nobel Peace Prize for ICANâs work to draw attention to the humanitarian consequences of nuclear weapons and its efforts to establish the Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons (TPNW). Now ratified by 68 countries, mostly in the Global South, the ban treaty entered into force in January 2021âthe first international legally binding agreement to ban nuclear weapons and associated activities, from testing to development. However, since then, Fihn feels like things have backslid. Vladimir Putinâs threats have reminded the world that nuclear war is not just a Cold Warâera concern. In a March poll, 7 in 10 Americans said Russiaâs invasion of Ukraine increased the possibility of nuclear weapons being used anywhere. Polls in Poland and France reflected similar concerns. âThereâs so much happening and itâs hard to keep upâa lot of anxiety and awfulness,â Fihn says. Growing great-power competitionâfrom Kim Jong Unâs nuclear tests to Chinaâs rapidly expanding arsenalâraises the stakes for Western democracies, she argues. âNuclear weapons make us vulnerable to dictators that do not answer to their people.â Though Fihn announced in November that she would step down as ICANâs executive director at the end of January, she plans to remain involved and is optimistic about this moment, pointing to progress made after crises in the 1960s and 1980s when the world came to the brink of nuclear war. âPeople are talking about nuclear weapons more than they have since the â80s. We have to use this to build a bigger movementâto double or triple in sizeâso we can set the stage for when the war in Ukraine is over,â she says. âTomorrow just needs to be bigger than today.â Despite being one of the most visible faces of the disarmament movement, Fihn says she got into this field of work âa bit by mistake.â She grew up in a suburb of Gothenburg, Sweden, and recalls new classmates fleeing the war in the Balkans in the â90s. Learning more about that conflict led her to study international relations at college in Stockholm. Hoping to work in human rights, she was thrilled to get an internship in 2006 with the Womenâs International League for Peace and Freedom in Geneva. She was less pleased to discover the work would focus on nuclear weapons. âI thought it would be super boring, really old-school, irrelevant,â she says. This is causing a lot of controversyâ¦Â Itâs a new documentary called [The Two Men Destroying America](. And a lot of powerful people would rather this exposé never saw the light of day. Chances are, theyâll attempt to have it scrubbed from existence. Thatâs because it tells the true (and terrifying) story of how two men from New York have engineered a reset of not just your personal wealth, but the entire US economic system. You donât have to be an athlete to face daily athletic challenges. Whether itâs lifting your luggage into the overhead compartment of an airplane or squatting on the floor to play with your kids, many daily movements require a combination of strength, stability and flexibility. Like an athlete, if you want to do these things well without risking injury, you have to train. The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services recommends 150 minutes of moderate-intensity aerobic exercise or 75 minutes of vigorous activity a week, and two weekly sessions of strength training that target all the major muscle groups. But life is busy. If you only have 10 minutes, thereâs still a lot you can do, using just your body weight, that can ward off creaky knees, stiff backs and aching necks. One way to create a fast and effective workout is to focus on the concept of mobility, which involves increasing strength, stability and flexibility, said Cedric Bryant, the president of the American Council on Exercise. âWhen we think of mobility, we think about movement,â he said. This means strength training using dynamic moves, like lunges, that work groups of muscles, rather than individual ones, like, say, a bicep curl. âThe body never does just a bicep curlâ in daily life, said Jessica Valant, a physical therapist and Pilates instructor based in Denver. Another way to build strength for everyday life is to do exercises that target important moving body parts, like the shoulders, hips and spine, by strengthening them while going through their ranges of motion. âYour spine is the center of your torso, the hip is what connects your legs to your torso, and the shoulder is what connects your arms to your torso,â Ms. Valant said. âThese are the main areas that you use to reach and lift and pull. If you can work to keep those mobile, you are going to help yourself with 90 percent of the activities that you do every day.â Mark Lauren, a fitness expert and former trainer for the U.S. Air Force Special Operations Command, said that in his own fitness routine, he methodically exercises the shoulders, spine, hips and legs, incorporating the full movement of each joint. This lets him work out quickly and efficiently to build strength and mobility. If you are actively working to develop a full range of motion for these body parts, he said, âeverything else tends to take care of itself. bNVTSrjbYtAuuJGqlXWMwwpwg7Xqsdl0ScvxANyL3JMidTeMY36wHsVu0RVCSeeh6P 9CM2evwCDuvrAUyzTXYdXCnEzWdhhJq8WAhDmhbmpt8rlNR0yhb1mYJFfmQ2Lc24oO 15LkmjgfIMj6bWJnb1bfbdEf6OY8gMwmtWcQJ8euwvMeqFzaRleFrcFeebxtUQNkm5 FUYDQn7zunzN0y1F6mKMYGr11VOk4YhqqCvKRRA83bW8MAZ7SH5TjJyyCKoRk8U2or 7KIGRfkhaKlAhrviJVo7PqlijobNGlNMVc9iWSsr6BAfqwMguM4PzuM81dYHKrN1Fg pUlNMlquVc4i27nTMwUBXXjmsJEBSQaiJwfRxECCfHMm5soupNMjhJIkb6oV7aHKIs 2riggx9cZAJEb1guTYPt4NmbRWvsVNr5QPoHvQP6pB5fkGkEme2MTvDSPFLaN1119L CJvESuiKxYoHJBVjOm0eczXW7KJ2OBFvyZJviYj9QMR3d3dmVg8rR3Cl6xxgDoVnTe bHPsxTu6Ech4avMUwSVJBJQxRADOx7AGtuom5iECTFBlg6O5gGchSuQqXwg1LPmGYs Clx0hfLHUJ5Nk9vgQzZpTlTIL3rPpuuiOsFGVdWPUfYRa7FtWxTS6gbonwXWOOkomh [click play]( ðClick play to watch The Two Men Destroying America [BB logo]( [Privacy Policy]( & Conditions]( You are receiving our newsletter because you opted-in for it on one of our sister websites.
