    Dr Karl: Why do ponytails swing when we run?

    There's a lot of maths — and a bit of astronomy — behind the sideways swing of a ponytail. If you go for a run, your head bobs up and down a little bit as you move forward. But if you've got a ponytail, something weird happens. As you run forward, and your head bobs up and down, the ponytail...

    Are lifting straps for the weak?

    The direct answer is no they're not for the weak, unless you consider some of the world's strongest men weak! When you're lifting really heavy (relative to you) for repetitions, or you're holding a weight statically momentarily before moving it (such in a halting deadlift position with a...

    “Hey, you’re doing it wrong!”

    Individualisation combined with text book technique =YOU! “Hey, you’re doing it wrong!”, so he tells you. If you’re an advanced or elite lifter, there is no such thing as you’re doing it wrong, and don’t let anyone (especially a coach) tell you otherwise. To illustrate my point, let us focus...
