TINLEY PARK, ILLINOIS – JANUARY 11: Assault-style rifles now banned for sale in the state are displayed at Freddie Bear Sports on January 11, 2023 in Tinley Park, Illinois. Workers began removing banned items from display shortly after the store opened. Yesterday evening, Illinois Governor J.B. Pritzker signed legislation banning the sale of guns classified as assault weapons, rifle magazines capable of holding more than 10 rounds and pistol magazines capable of holding more than 15 rounds in the state. The Illinois State Rifle Association, citing 2.5 million gun owners in the state, has vowed to fight the legislation in court. Eight other states and Washington D.C. have enacted similar bans.

Treadmill vs. bike

Fitness Equipment / 24 mins ago

Treadmills arguably offer a better workout in a shorter time, but require greater levels of fitness to get started. Exercise bikes give a more manageable start.

Best ankle weights

Fitness Gear / 34 mins ago

If you’re looking to incorporate light strength training into your workout routine, but dumbbells just aren’t for you, then ankle weights may be perfect.

Best yoga blocks

Yoga & Pilates / 44 mins ago

Yoga blocks add inches and reach where needed, which is just enough to help you acclimate to new or more difficult poses.
