The concept of scalp care has come a long way from the days when Selsun Blue and Head & Shoulders were your only options. Popular skincare brands like The Ordinary and Dr. Barbara Sturm and hair care favorites like Verb and Act + Acre have released scalp treatments in recent months. On top of that, new brands like Jupiter have launched entire grooming product collections that put a strong emphasis on scalp care. Bottom line: Now’s a good time to take care of your scalp. Among the many new offerings on the market are products that specifically target hair loss or thinning hair. Many scalp care products offer a similar overall promise: a clarified, healthy, exfoliated scalp will help promote healthier, stronger hair. To achieve that, many of these products utilize nourishing vitamins and familiar ingredients like aloe vera. In addition, serums or sprays that are specifically designed to prevent hair loss often include ingredients like minoxidil (the active ingredient in Rogaine t...

When it comes to making a lasting impact, few strongman athletes can compare to the sizable footsteps of Žydrūnas Savickas. A four-time World’s Strongest Man (WSM) champion (2009, 2010, 2012, and 2014), among other illustrious achievements, Savickas is one of the most decorated people ever to lift an Atlas stone or press a log over their head.  On March 27, 2022, the Lithuanian strongman, known as “Big Z,” appeared on Nick Best ‘s podcast, Legends of Iron . Alongside his fellow strongman and bodybuilding co-hosts — Jon Andersen and Akim Williams — Best and Co. appeared to leave no stone unturned (pun unintended) when it came to Savickas, the strongman, and Savickas, the person. In an illuminating conversation, Savickas detailed how he made his career so exceptional and, in the process, what he’d tell rising strongmen to do if they wanted to emulate his uncommon ledger of work.  Advice to Future Rising Stars In a professional career that dates back almost three decades, ...

As part of my job, I travel at least once a month. Although certain aspects can be improved (like investing in Global Entry, which has allowed me to keep my shoes on and electronics in my bags at security screenings), air travel is generally an unforgiving slog. I don’t expect much from the experience other than eventually getting to where I’m going. But on a recent trip from Los Angeles to London, I had the chance to experience a very different (and very luxe) way to travel through an airport: the PS private lounge. PS aims to help people rethink the typical defeatist attitude toward flying. Located in its own corner of Los Angeles International Airport (otherwise known as LAX), the lounge is a private terminal for anyone hoping to escape the drain of modern air travel. PS offers private suites, complimentary food and drinks, concierge services, and its own TSA checkpoint for paying customers. Since its inception in 2017, it’s been a hit with business travelers and A-list celebrit...

Never got over the end of Game of Thrones ? You’re in luck: A spinoff series is in the works . House of the Dragon , a new HBO show currently in production, takes place 200 years before the events of the original award-winning series, and it centers on House Targaryen, one of the key families in the show (and the books it’s based on). Today, the streamer announced that House of the Dragon will premiere on Aug. 21. Like Game of Thrones , House of the Dragon is based on George R.R. Martin’s series of acclaimed fantasy books; in this case, the show takes its material from Fire & Blood , which was originally published in 2018. Paddy Considine stars as King Viserys Targaryen, Matt Smith plays Prince Daemon Targaryen (the heir to the throne), and Emma D’Arcy plays Princess Rhaenyra Targaryen, the king’s oldest child and an accomplished dragonrider.

Arm training gets a bad rap as being “all show, no go.” That mindset ignores the full range of benefits that come with training these essential muscle groups (in addition to a building good-looking pair of arms). Want to bring up your bench press? A strong set of horseshoe triceps will help you when locking out the weight. If you struggle with pull-ups, underdeveloped biceps may be holding you back. Whether you are just beginning your training journey, have been hitting the gym for years, or have no equipment at all but still want great results, you can find the perfect arm workout to get you closer to those goals. Dive in, choose your plan of attack, and get working.

Roughly 11 months after tearing his lat, strongman Nick Best pulled 755 pounds off of the floor — raw . Now that’s what you call a comeback. Best’s injury happened during the 2021 WRPF Kern US Open on April 24-25 (where he ranked third overall). Ever since he’s taken the appropriate time and steps to heal while he trains. His latest recovery feat — the staggering deadlift session recorded in his garage — might signify that he’s well on his way back to competing.  On March 27, 2022, Best shared a video of him pulling a 342.5-kilogram (755-pound) deadlift on his Instagram profile. Also of note, the strongman opted for an over-under grip and did not use straps.             View this post on Instagram                         A post shared by Nick Best (@nickbeststrongman) [Related: Powerlifter Jamal Browner Pulls A Conventional Deadlift PR Of 432.5 Kilo...

This article was produced in partnership with Cole Haan . With airlines cutting costs at every turn and record crowds funneling through the world’s airports, it might seem like the halcyon days of glamorous travel will never make a comeback. But that doesn’t mean mens’ style should also become a victim of today’s air travel woes. “It’s tempting to just throw on your coziest clothes, but we all can put a little more effort into crafting an elevated jet-set look that doesn’t forgo the comfort of sweats,” mens’ fashion stylist Seppe Tirabassi tells Men’s Journal . “The return of travel is something worth celebrating. Don’t spoil it for yourself by looking sloppy.” While the jury is still out on whether dressing to the nines might win you a surprise flight upgrade, it certainly won’t hurt your chances. And if there’s one shoe worthy of a first-class ticket, it’s Cole Haan’s 4.ZERØGRAND Stitchlite Oxford . Cole Haan seamlessly marries innovative material craftsmanship and striking desi...

Johnny Knoxville has made a career out of putting his body in precarious positions. So his recent foray into wrestling doesn’t come as too much of a surprise to fans. “In a way, Jackass was good preparation,” says the 50-year-old stunt performer, who will face off against WWE pro Sami Zayn at WrestleMania 38 at AT&T Stadium in Dallas on the weekend of April 2 and 3. “Wrestling is a very physical thing, and everyone is wrecking their bodies in both.” Make sure you tune in to watch: WrestleMania 38 will stream live on Peacock on Saturday, April 2, and Sunday, April 3, at 8 p.m. (EDT). Here, the father of three—he shares son Rocko, 12, and daughter Arlo, 10, with wife Naomi Nelson, and has daughter Madison, 26, from a previous relationship—talks to In Touch ’s Natalie Posner about gearing up for the ring, the stunt he refuses to do, and his not-so-guilty pleasure.
