Are TikTok Age Tests Legit? Orthopedists Explains How to Measure Biological Age

cnet.com See Full Bio 2025-08-23 08:00:00

If you’ve scrolled through TikTok or Instagram, you’ve probably seen fitness challenges based on your biological age. In some cases, it’s funny to see people attempting feats that seem impossible for their age or impressive that they can do them. You’ve probably felt inspired to try out some of these challenges and even questioned their legitimacy. “Most of these challenges, like completing 11 consecutive push-ups (for women), doing pull-ups or performing a kneeling-to-squat jump, are quick scr

gizmodo.com Justin Carter 2025-08-23 17:25:09

After 2024’s Transformers One came and went, it’s been a question of whether we’d actually see the Autobots and Decepticons on the big screen. The answer now appears to be “yes,” and not just because Paramount’s still pretending that crossover with G.I. Joe is happening. According to Matt Belloni at Puck News, the studio is spinning up several Transformers movies. One is said to be helmed by One director Josh Cooley, and will be live-action. The other is said to be coming from ex-franchise stew

Staples Union & Scale FlexFit Desk Converter Review: Reliable Riser

wired.com Julian Chokkattu 2025-08-23 14:03:00

The included keyboard rest is optional to install, though the whole thing is designed to work together. It's a little annoying. I wish you could roll the tray into the riser to hide it, which would go a long way in making the FlexFit look a little more elegant, and could also help with storage. You also can't adjust the height of the tray, so while I didn't have issues typing on a keyboard, I found my wrist cramping up a little when using my Apple Magic Trackpad because it was a little too low.
