We ran 60 miles in the Saucony Endorphin Elite 2 — here’s our verdict

5 days ago | tomsguide.com | Nick Harris Fry |Jane McGuire

The original Saucony Endorphin Elite was one of the best carbon plate running shoes, but the speed it delivered came with the caveat of quite a harsh ride that some runners, including myself, found uncomfortable over longer distances. There’s little danger of discomfort with the Saucony Endorphin Elite 2, which swerves to the other end of the spectrum and has perhaps the softest midsole foam I’ve ever come across in a racing shoe.
Skip push-ups and planks - I just did this 15-minute standing upper-body workout and my arms are on fire

5 days ago | tomsguide.com | Jane McGuire

If you’re looking to sculpt strong arms and shoulders, but hate pushups, I’ve got good news — the bodyweight move isn’t essential when it comes to building a strong upper body. If you’re looking for a wrist-friendly workout that can be done standing up, I’ve found it. All you’ll need is a set of the best adjustable dumbbells, 15 minutes of time, and enough motivation to get through the arm shakes.

If you hate running, the good news is it’s not the only way to burn calories and build muscle — HIIT training is a great alternative, especially if you’re short on time. In fact, you’re more likely to burn the same amount of calories doing a short HIIT workout as you would on a longer run, running at a steady pace. If you’re looking for inspiration, grab a set of the best adjustable dumbbells and give this 28-minute HIIT workout a go.

I test leggings for a living, and this Nike pair is as comfy as Lululemon for half the price

1 week ago | tomsguide.com | Jane McGuire

I’ve been reviewing gym leggings for the past decade and am notoriously hard to please. I want a fabric that’s soft against my skin, while still being sweat-wicking. I want a high waistband that keeps everything in place but doesn’t bunch or fold when I’m doing yoga. And I want to be able to chuck the leggings in my washing machine after every workout and not experience any bobbling or discoloring. Expecting too much? Never. As a fitness editor, I help you work out what to buy.
Not planks or push-ups - sculpt your entire body with this 20-minute standing dumbbell workout

1 week ago | tomsguide.com | Jane McGuire

The good news is, that getting down on an exercise mat isn’t imperative to building a strong body, and this workout is here to prove it. All you’ll need for this workout is a set of the best adjustable dumbbells.

Polar, known for making some of the best running watches, has announced its own subscription plan today, following in the footsteps of Garmin’s Connect+. Polar’s subscription service will add to its free Polar Flow app, and cost users €9.99 (around $11/£8.50 per month).

The subscription promises ‘adaptive, science-backed training plans’, but let’s take a look at what this means.
No, not squats - this deadlift variation builds strength, burns calories and works your entire body

2 weeks ago | tomsguide.com | Jane McGuire

When it comes to building your lower body muscles, squats and lunges are probably the first exercises that come to mind, and for good reason — both target most of the major muscle groups in your legs, and will help you build strength. Whether you’re a runner or a cyclist, strong leg muscles are important and will help keep your body balanced, and prevent injuries. But what if you’re bored of your regular leg day workouts, and want to get your abs and upper body involved too?
I ditched my Apple Watch 10 for the Garmin Fenix 8 for a month - and I'm never going back

3 weeks ago | tomsguide.com | Jane McGuire

As a fitness editor, I’ve spent the past few years ingrained in the Apple ecosystem, with the Apple Watch on my wrist, and the iPhone in my pocket. I’ve become hooked on closing my rings, and I’ve even gotten over the low battery life compared to some of the best running watches on the market. Yet despite trying all of the best Apple Watches, I often swap to a Garmin when heading out for my run. Why?

My LinkedIn has been hacked. @LinkedInHelp has, excellently, restored the account to the hacker's email address which is super fun. If you receive a message from me on there, it's not me.
