Long cases ask a lot of your back, shoulders and legs — and of your sleep. Each month we pick trusted, mostly free resources: quick routines for between cases or a hotel room, proper training for those who already lift, and tools for sleep and a quieter mind.
The newest strength-training guidance makes a reassuringly simple point: the biggest step is going from no resistance training to some, done regularly. For sleep, structured approaches based on cognitive behavioural therapy have the strongest track record. Our picks lean on those foundations — and on sources from health services, universities and sports-medicine bodies.
The archive of past picks will appear here from December.
