It might not be your instant exercise of choice but the push-up is a complex compound move that works your chest, biceps and core – basically, if you’re serious about rockin’ that summer swimsuit then doing a good set of push-ups will help you get there. Push-ups come in lots of different variations and you can make use of other gym equipment, like a fitness weight ball, to help you get to grips with your preferred push-up workout.

Quinoa went through a time of food awakening (much like kale is right now) and is now one of the most popular super foods, loaded with protein, fibre and minerals. Quinoa is usually prepared as a salad, and boy has it become a popular menu item in the region! It’s light, delicious and comes with a wealth of health benefits. If you’re quinoa-savvy, you will know that the nutty taste and delicate texture make it a perfect addition to your daily diet. fact magazine
