A collection of health and fitness articles from around
the web!

What is this website? We're here to share our fitness funnies, adventures and to
fundraise money for Oxfam - click here for more information!

The articles on this page are shrouded in my own opinion of them. Whilst trying to be fair I'm also trying to workout what it is the article is actually saying.

Comments here are always welcome! So far we've covered the role of porn in the brain, female fertility, red meat, housework and whether mens faces are made for smacking.

If you like this but need a giggle check out my blog for a dose of fitness humour and the occasional existential crisis!

It's easy to pass psychologists off as

"What's eating Luis Suarez: the psychology of biting" via New Scientist

Sorry all, but I had to. The World Cup is pervasive enough, but as a psychologist this is just downright fascinating.

I have to admit, I'm not a huge football fan. I'll watch it if it's on and being a teacher it's usually good to keep relatively up to date so you can keep up with the students, the theatrics are always good to watch but I wouldn't replace another activity with football, nor do I actively seek games.

"Sunbathing may have similar effects to drug addiction" via New Scientist

This article has appeared in a few places:
Sun tanning 'addictive' suggests study via NHS news
Sunbathing 'may be addictive' warning via BBC news
