Approximately 10 out of the 100 employees under his leadership had reportedly sought extended leaves of absence for mental health concerns since 2022.

Food logging can be done in a few ways, including searching a database, scanning barcodes, or using AI-based camera analysis. Simpler items like eggs and fruit are identified well, but complex meals can be frustrating due to lighting and AI limitations.

Super shoes and ultralight gear make a difference, but with new advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) that can look at our running form and compare it to the ideal, analyze our nutrition intake from a simple photo and help us plan our diets, and offer guidance on training and recovery, the interwovenness of technology and running is only set to increase.

After writing about Google Maps for nearly 15 years, I've learned firsthand that it's packed with hidden settings, menus, and toggles. Many help you fine-tune the app to your liking, while others unlock new features you probably didn't know existed.

As someone who comes alive at 2 am and can easily sink into an hour-long vortex of consuming YouTube shorts, I started using an Oura ring to act as a sort of pseudo-parent. It's motivated me to stand up from my desk more often, swap my mid-day social media breaks for 20-minute meditations, and develop a more calming before-bed routine than letting one episode of Vanderpump Rules turn into three.

Recent surveys estimate more than 6.7 million Australians - almost half of all workers, and the majority in Sydney, Melbourne and Canberra - work from home at least some of the time in paid or unpaid roles. With that increase in working from home, it's easy to spend too long sitting, which is now recognised as bad for our health.

What can AI do for my health? Before testing Google's revamped Fitbit Premium, powered by Gemini, I didn't believe it could do that much. Of course, I'm aware of the technology's ability to comb through large datasets to decode patterns. That's helpful for exercise, sleep tracking, or predicting illness or strain. It's one of the reasons I love using devices like smartwatches and smart rings to track my health.

Rumors of a Meta smartwatch first surfaced in 2021, with leaked images appearing in 2022 before reports claimed the project was shelved. Now, a new report says Meta has revived the smartwatch project and plans to launch it this year. According to The Information, citing sources familiar with the project, Meta's upcoming smartwatch, internally codenamed Malibu 2, is expected to launch in 2026 with health-tracking capabilities and Meta AI features.

We use the IMU sensors to detect which exercise the user is performing and identify the period engaging in concentric, eccentric, or isometric hold. These are the three main types of lifting exercises; you might know them as contracting, lengthening, or static exercises. The Fort uses the wrist as a proxy for bar velocity, and the company is seeking FDA clearance and will also be pursuing large, third-party studies from independent labs.

Yes - the Garmin Varia radar works with Wahoo bike computers (including the Wahoo ELEMNT BOLT). Once paired, your Wahoo shows a Quick Answer:left-side radar strip(You can put it on the right side if you prefer) and car icons that move as vehicles approach from behind. It gives you earlier awareness than a mirror alone, especially on quiet roads where you can lose focus. Why I Wanted This Answer Before I Bought One For years I relied on my Take-A-Look mirror.

I felt too intimidated to try weight lifting again on my own, but wanted to experience the benefits those gym workouts provide, which is quite different to my typical routine of pilates, tennis and pole. Simultaneously, I've been working toward a solid home gym situation (while understanding my limited space in a one-bedroom in Queens). I began investigating full out home gym tech, and AEKE stood out as the most exciting of the bunch, because it most similarly aligned with having a personal trainer. I tried out the AEKE Smart Home Gym K1 with the Bench.

Petal is a bra insert that uses bio-impedance sensors and electrical measurements to monitor blood flow near the heart. Because wearers position the insert right next to the heart, the device can capture more accurate readings than your typical smartwatch, Petal says. The device comes in one size and fits snug against each breast. It's made with biocompatible materials, including a soft European fabric and a polyurethane-coated interior.

I personally ride a Wahoo ELEMNT BOLT and love it - but a lot of riders don't want to spend $350 on a bike computer. The COOSPO CS600 usually sells for around $100. Sometimes a little less. That puts it in a completely different category than the Wahoo. I want to be very clear about something: I do not ride this unit myself. I'm not pretending I do, and I'm not recommending it as a replacement for the Wahoo.

If there's one thing that stops people using their smart rings over the long term, it's the battery life. After all, they're so unobtrusive, it's easy to forget to drop it on the charging plate every few days. It doesn't take long for your pricey gadget to become little more than a very expensive piece of jewelry.

As a fitness writer and mom, I'm constantly multitasking. Whether it's meeting deadlines or managing my household, it can sometimes be hard to put myself first. I prefer walking and running outdoors for cardio, and I even have a jogging stroller to bring my son along for the ride. Now that winter has set in, it's harder to get movement in. If you work remotely and don't want to skip out on your step count, an under-desk treadmill might be a good option to have on hand.

The smartwatch market in India has expanded quickly, and buyers now have access to feature-packed wearables that offer a strong mix of design, fitness tracking, health monitoring, and battery life at affordable prices. Brands also offer useful features like built-in GPS navigation (without relying on a connected smartwatch), sensors that monitor specific health metrics, and smarter software to the mid-range segment, making it easier to find a capable watch without overspending.

A tennis match usually starts with rituals you can set your watch by. A towel tug, a ball bounce, a glance at the strings. This year, a different ritual stole the first spotlight, because officials asked top players to take off a wrist wearable before they played, and the moment landed like a plot twist you did not order. This piece walks you through what happened, why it happened, and what it says about where tennis sits with athlete data right now.
