![]() ![]() "The primary muscle that provides the most movement during a push-up is the pectoralis major − the largest of the chest muscles," says Michael Fredericson, MD, director of the Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation division of Stanford University. What muscles do push-ups work?īecause most people who participate in the activity mainly do so for muscle-building purposes, it's important to know which muscles push-ups work. One study showed that participants who were able to do a set number of push-ups within a short period of time were at much lower risk of heart disease or heart attack. Of course, the primary reason most people do push-ups is to tone and build muscle. "Push-ups are a multi-joint exercise, requiring movement at more than one joint at a time," explains McDonough. "This means they require contraction of various large and small muscle groups together − advantageous because you get more 'bang for your buck' by targeted more muscles in less time."īeyond bigger muscles, however, the weight-bearing exercise also strengthens bones and reduces bone loss, improves posture, and supports cardiovascular health. What are the health benefits of doing push-ups? The fitness practice also delivers a host of other health benefits including cardiovascular support and a targeted approach to increasing strength and endurance in wide range of muscle groups. They are also adaptable to many different body types and fitness levels. " Resistance training with push-ups is great because many adaptations can be implemented for beginners to allow for gradual progression over time," says DJ McDonough, PhD, MS, a cardiovascular disease researcher at the University of Minnesota’s School of Public Health. They provide a great workout, can conveniently be done anytime and from anywhere and deliver real results if done properly and with consistency.

Culleoka is a community about 60 miles (100 kilometers) south of Nashville near the Alabama state line. The pair's disappearance March 13 came after Cummins was investigated by the school system when another student reported seeing the then-married teacher kiss the girl at the Culleoka Unit School. Authorities had earlier said the arrest happened at a commune but later clarified that it occurred in a very remote area, where the terrain was difficult to traverse and snow was still on the ground in some places. "We couldn't be happier to tell you she will soon be on her way back home to Tennessee," Tennessee Bureau of Investigation Director Mark Gwyn said.Ĭummins faces a federal charge of taking a minor across state lines to have sex, as well as state charges of aggravated kidnapping and sexual contact with a minor.Īuthorities received a tip late Wednesday night that the pair may have taken up residence, perhaps for more than a week, in the woods in Cecilville, where cellphone coverage is limited, bureau spokesman Josh Devine said. The girl was apparently healthy and unharmed, and authorities said their main concern was her emotional and mental state. Health sciences teacher Tad Cummins surrendered to sheriff's deputies without incident in Cecilville, California, hours after they had found his vehicle in the area, the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation said. A 15-year-old Tennessee girl was rescued near a cabin in a remote part of northern California on Thursday, more than a month after her 50-year-old teacher kidnapped her and set off a nationwide manhunt, authorities said. "She would come to him about her problems with her past," Jill Cummins said.Īuthorities said Thomas would be flown back to Tennessee to be reunited with her family while Cummins would be extradited.NASHVILLE, Tenn. She said the couple, who have two grown daughters, had even taken Thomas to church. She said in an interview on ABC television that she knew Thomas and thought her husband was mentoring the teen. His wife of more than 30 years, Jill Cummins, reported him missing to authorities after finding a note at their home. Gwyn's office said in a statement last month that a probe had revealed "a troubling pattern of behaviour by Tad Cummins, suggesting the 50-year-old may have been abusing his role as a teacher to groom this vulnerable young girl for some time in an effort to lure and potentially sexually exploit her".Īuthorities said prior to the pair's disappearance, Cummins had researched online the topic of teen marriage and had also tried to determine if features on his vehicle could be tracked. Ĭummins was a teacher at Thomas's high school in Tennessee and was fired for inappropriate behavior with the freshman student after another pupil claimed to have seen the pair kissing. "What happened in California this morning, however, proves it only takes one person to lead to a successful end.".

![]() Methods: In this observational, web-based survey study, participants ( N = 886) were measured across five successive time-points: 2 weeks before, hours before, and the day after a psychedelic ceremony as well as the day after, and 4 weeks after leaving the ceremony location. This study introduces and psychometrically validates an adapted Communitas Scale, assessing acute relational experiences of perceived togetherness and shared humanity, in order to investigate psychosocial mechanisms pertinent to psychedelic ceremonies and retreats. Nevertheless, current small-scale clinical and laboratory studies have tended to bypass a ubiquitous contextual feature of naturalistic psychedelic use: its social dimension. Historically and contemporarily, psychedelic studies have emphasized the importance of contextual elements ('set and setting') in modulating acute drug effects, and ultimately, influencing long-term outcomes. 3Centre for Complexity Science, Imperial College London, London, United Kingdomīackground: Recent years have seen a resurgence of research on the potential of psychedelic substances to treat addictive and mood disorders.2Data Science Institute, Imperial College London, London, United Kingdom.1Centre for Psychedelic Research, Department of Brain Sciences, Imperial College London, London, United Kingdom. ![]() ![]() ![]() Broken leg: Treatment and drugs /diseases-conditions/broken-leg/basics/treatment/con-20031562 Outcome at 12 to 22 years of 1502 tibial shaft fractures.

Ligaments, muscles, tendons, and other soft tissue surrounding the fracture site are at risk of injury. This usually only occurs during bad falls and vehicle accidents. In open fractures, the broken bone breaks through the skin. Internal soft tissues such as tendons and blood vessels may be affected by this type of break. With closed fractures, the bone doesn’t break through the skin. Tibia fractures can also be closed or open.

It's wider than most other trackpads on cases we tested, and it's consistently responsive. The trackpad on the Combo Touch is pretty great, too. There are also function keys for things like going back to the Home Screen, changing the display's brightness, triggering Spotlight search, media playback, and volume control, as well as locking the device. The square keys are backlit, and the brightness of the backlight is adjustable via function keys at the top of the keyboard. The Combo Touch's keys are just as big as Apple's on the Magic Keyboard, and they're just as comfortable to type on, too. It's both a standalone case as well as a keyboard and trackpad combo that together turn the iPad Air or Pro into a Surface-like device that's great for getting work done. While no keyboard we tested hit every mark of portability, protection, comfort, and versatility, Logitech's Combo Touch keyboard case came the closest. If nothing but Apple’s first-party products will do, the Apple Magic Keyboard (available at Apple) for the 11-inch iPad Air and iPad Pro will also serve you well.

If you're looking for something a little more elegant and portable, you'll want a dedicated keyboard case. You can go a couple of routes to get there: if you have a Bluetooth keyboard and mouse handy, they'll probably pair with iPadOS and you can use those in a pinch. If your iPad Air or iPad Pro needs to go beyond the capabilities of touch and stylus input, you'll need a keyboard and mouse. ![]() ![]() ![]() Winslet replied, in brisk Mare fashion: “Let’s go get a cup of coffee. “I was like, ‘Oh, God, I didn’t get it,’” Peters says. I’m going to shadow you, Craig, and be a director because I can’t fuckin’ do it anymore.” I was like, ‘We didn’t get it, we didn’t get it. “The reason that we were emotional and hugging was because I was hysterically sobbing,” Peters says. It was emotional.” That’s a bit of an understatement Peters was a wreck. “I could tell it was special when we were shooting that thing.… I remember hugging at the end. Colin is also going in there trying to learn from Mare.”Īfter several takes, both Winslet and Zobel were more than satisfied. I’m gonna try to do the best job that I can. But okay, I’m going to try to learn from Kate. “I hate the word meta,” Peters says of his professional admiration for Winslet. The connection between the two characters runs even deeper than what’s on the page. It’s evidence that, for Mare, her young partner was more of a kid to be protected than as a man who has his heart set on her. In the final moments of that episode, Mare sits in shock over what has transpired, and audio of her son Kevin as a child plays in her mind. In the fifth episode, Zabel dies suddenly and shockingly as he and Mare track down the man who has kidnapped and imprisoned two local girls. For Mare, the mix of emotions around Zabel are even messier. If he works with her well and solves this case authentically, I think that can be his redemption.” Peters also acknowledges Winslet’s “obvious beauty” as a key aspect of Zabel’s interest. ![]() “Despite all of her secrets and shortcomings, she feels very honest. “Mare becomes this sort of beacon of light,” Peters says. In order to channel Zabel’s sad-sack frustration over wanting Mare to see him as a viable romantic option, Peters also listened to John Mayer’s “ New Light.” The lyrics read, in part: “Oh, you don’t think twice ’bout me / And maybe you’re right to doubt me but / But if you give me just one night / You’re gonna see me in a new light.” As Zobel’s camera stays tight on the only two faces in the room who matter for these four and a half minutes, Zabel makes his flirtatious play and Winslet’s Mare shoots him a very knowing look in return.įor Peters, Zabel’s attraction to Mare is tied up in a lot of other messy emotions. “I think he’s been trying to kill that with booze.” “That ultimately makes him feel like an imposter and a fake and a phony,” Peters says. “That feeling of being in this long relationship,” Peters says, “and it ending badly.” Zabel is also holding on to the secret that he passed off someone else’s detective work as his own in order to advance his career. Dog, which coincidentally happens to also be a current TikTok hit-that Peters cued up to get in the mood of someone fresh off a high school reunion where he had to see his ex. It was also crucial in landing the emotional impact of what happens with Zabel in a later episode.īut it was a different song-2010’s mournful “ Where’d All the Time Go” by Dr. The idea behind this scene, then, was to show Zabel at his most appealingly vulnerable while signaling some chaotic turmoil lurking behind his buttoned-down demeanor. The duo decided that the character of Zabel, written as a brash hotshot with a lot of swagger, would work better as a troubled young man plagued with imposter syndrome and a big secret to keep. It’s also a scene that transformed significantly as series director Craig Zobel and Peters worked on it. It’s a pivotal scene for the series, both setting up Zabel’s arc and establishing him as a viable romantic interest-at least in his mind-for Mare. ![]() Their exchange lasts less than five minutes, but during that time Winslet generously lets Peters snatch the spotlight as Zabel runs the full drunken gamut of despair, sarcastic humor, and unsubtle flirtation. Sitting at a local bar and on the verge of making a potentially life-ruining decision, Mare runs into her new young partner, Detective Colin Zabel ( Evan Peters), who is three sheets to the wind after his own no good, very bad high school reunion.
