Hereâs whatâs going on in todayâs edition: - A dieticianâs look at the egg diet - HIIT workouts perfect for beginners - All types of push-up variations Nutrition If You Are the Eggman, Who Is the Walrus? Credit: Giphy Plenty of cartoonishly restrictive diets have hit the mainstream over the years: the âCookie Dietâ was once seen as a legitimate nutritional foundation to build upon, and the Carnivore Diet still holds sway in some internet corners. Now, thereâs the TikTok-famous âegg diet,â which is popping up on social media feeds all over. At heart, this is a ketogenic diet based on low carbs, high fat, and high protein, but, as the name suggests, this nutrition regimen strives to use the egg as the bodyâs primary energy source. In its original text, the person behind the dietâs popularity claimed you could lose up to 25 pounds in two weeks, aka 12.5 pounds per week using this method. Sounds like a weird idea on the surface, but is there any validity here? We asked a registered dietician to break it all down. [All About the Egg Diet]( From Our Sponsor Superior Sleep and No Next-Day Grogginess. Meet Cornbread Hempâs CBD Sleep Gummies.

[Get the Workout]( Exercises On Your Face! Credit: @Theoffice / Giphy No matter how much the fitness world changes, one exercise always remains in style: push-ups. Even if youâve spent time in the military and learned to understand the push-up strictly as a means of punishment, you have to look back, somewhat fondly, on the number of push-ups you were capable of doing when it mattered. There really are push-ups for every walk of life (even press-ups for those across the pond). Narrow, wide, explosive, and partial â there is a push-up style to match whatever upper-body training modality you are after. If youâve gotten into a little bit of a rut, these push-up variations will challenge you. Once youâve got the patterns down cold, have a loved one scream obscenities in your ear for the full push-up training experience.
