After sitting out the 2023 season for maternity leave, Tia-Clair Toomey returned to bag her seventh title in 2025. In a recent YouTube video, Toomey confirmed she’s not done yet, eyeing a historic eighth title that would further cement her GOAT status. Her training is already ramping up, and she’s embracing the challenge of motherhood and elite fitness in one breath. With Laura Horvath and other top contenders hungry for the crown, the 2025 Games just got a lot more dramatic. This could be CrossFit’s most anticipated comeback yet. [The Queen Returns in 2025]
Brian Johnson, aka Liver King, was released from jail after posting a $20,000 bond, but wasted no time jumping back into the internet’s most bizarre beef. Shortly after regaining freedom, he published more unhinged videos aimed at Joe Rogan, maintaining his primal theatrics and calling out the podcast host in increasingly strange ways. This saga follows his legal trouble for supplement mislabeling and the fallout from his steroid admission. With shirtless rants, Viking swords, and zero chill, Liver King’s reentry into the online world is anything but low-key. [Watch the Madness Unfold]
Seven-time Mr. Olympia Phil Heath may be known for freaky muscle mass, but his latest training session proves control is king. Instead of chasing heavyweight PRs, Heath focused on deliberate tempo, peak contraction, and mind-muscle connection. Exercises like incline chest presses and cable curls were performed with surgical form, emphasizing the squeeze and minimizing joint stress. It’s a reminder that longevity and size can coexist when reps are treated like art. If you’re still ego-lifting, this is your cue to change. [Train Like the Gift, Not a Gym Bro]
Four-time Men’s Physique Olympia champ Jeremy Buendia isn’t sticking to old routines. Ahead of his 2025 Olympia comeback, Buendia has overhauled his training strategy—ditching high-frequency splits in favor of more recovery-focused programming. He’s shifted from muscle annihilation to muscle stimulation, dialing back volume while increasing focus and execution. His upper body workouts now prioritize compound lifts, improved shoulder symmetry, and injury prevention. The result? A more balanced, mature physique heading into his most calculated prep yet.

Rucking might sound like glorified walking, but after just seven days, it can leave your legs sore in the best way. By loading a backpack with weight and walking varied terrain, this low-impact method torches calories while training the posterior chain, stabilizers, and grip. Unlike running, it’s joint-friendly and doesn’t spike cortisol through the roof. Users have reported better quad definition, hamstring tightness, and surprising strength carryover—all without trashing their knees. Cardio haters, this might be your new favorite leg-day alternative. [Walk Heavy, Get Strong]
Think your go-to granola bar is healthy? Think again. The Nutrient Density Score breaks down which popular “health” foods actually deliver on vitamins, minerals, and fiber, and which ones are just cleverly marketed. Some foods with shiny labels scored shockingly low, while underrated staples like watercress, beef liver, and sardines ranked near the top. The ranking system factors in calorie control, nutrient concentration, and real-life eating habits. Spoiler: your smoothie bowl might not be the superfood bomb you thought it was.

How much protein is too much? According to Arnold Schwarzenegger, probably more than you think. The bodybuilding legend clarified that eating “extra” protein doesn’t magically turn into fat unless you're consistently overeating calories. He emphasized the importance of protein timing, muscle-building efficiency, and individual metabolic needs. It’s a myth-busting take aimed at casual lifters worried their chicken breast obsession might backfire. TLDR: eat your protein, but don’t panic about the macros.

Jay Cutler didn’t build four Mr. Olympia titles without some chest-day secrets. His go-to trifecta for building thick, upper pecs includes incline presses, flat dumbbell presses, and cable crossovers. The focus is on controlled tempo, high-volume sets, and constant muscle tension—no bouncing the bar off your chest or relying on momentum. He’s also swapped barbells for dumbbells to better target asymmetries and prevent joint strain. Whether you’re training for the stage or the beach, this is textbook hypertrophy. [Build a Chest Worth a Trophy]
Lifting heavy with cranky joints can feel like walking a tightrope. This joint-friendly bodybuilding program dials in exercise selection, tempo, and recovery so lifters with achy knees and shoulders can still make gains. Think machines over barbells, slow eccentrics, and anti-inflammatory food tips to back up the training. It’s not a rehab plan—it’s a smarter way to train without paying the pain tax. Progress doesn’t have to mean pain, and this plan proves it. [Train Smart, Stay Strong]

Dinner Recipe of the Day: Spaghetti with Mushrooms, Spinach & Ricotta
Boil your spaghetti like it owes you money, and while that’s happening, sauté mushrooms and garlic in olive oil until golden. Toss in fresh spinach and cook it down until wilted and whispering thanks. Drain the pasta (don’t forget to save some of that starchy water), then mix everything together—pasta, veggies, a splash of pasta water, and a touch of Parmesan. Dollop ricotta on top like you’re feeling generous, and boom: a weeknight dinner that tastes like you tried way harder than you did.
