MEET THE MEN’S HEALTH ADVISORY PANEL • We know a lot about health and fitness, but we don’t know as much as the doctors, scientists, and trainers who keep us honest and up-to-date.

All Sling Systems Go • According to influential massage therapist Thomas Myers, author of the book Anatomy Trains and an authority on slings, more than a dozen slings exist in the body.

You’ll rely on them during this workout, a four-day-a-week total-body session that’ll add strength, boost endurance, and blast fat in 25 minutes a day.
