It s no secret that sitting for long stretches isn t great for your body. Research has linked it to heart disease, obesity, diabetes, even cancer. But there s another health risk from sitting all day that most people don t know about: gluteal amnesia, or dead butt syndrome.
It almost sounds like a joke, but it s not uncommon, says Andrew Bang, a chiropractor at the Cleveland Clinic s Wellness Institute: I see the injury all the time in varying degrees.
Dead butt syndrome develops when the gluteus medius one of the three main muscles in the booty stops firing correctly. That can happen if you spend too much time parked in a chair, explains Kristen Schuyten, a physical therapist at Michigan Medicine. But it can also occur in very active individuals who just don t engage the glute muscles enough, she adds.

It s rare that you hear men talk about their own issues with food. But Zayn Malik is breaking that taboo.
The singer/songwriter (and former member of One Direction) first opened up about his struggle with restrictive eating in his autobiography, which came out last fall. “It wasn’t as though I had any concerns about my weight or anything like that,” Malik wrote in the book. “I’d just go for days sometimes two or three days straight without eating anything at all.”
Last weekend, in an interview with
The Sunday Times, Malik explained that he didn t have an eating disorder, but his behavior was tied to an emotional need during a very stressful time: “Every area of my life was so regimented and controlled, it was the one area where I could say, ‘No, I’m not eating that. Once I got over the control, the eating just came back into place super naturally.”
Pregnancy doesn t have to be a nine-month dry spell. In fact, getting it on when you re carrying a baby is encouraged by ob-gyns. Generally, in a normal, healthy pregnancy, sexual activity is not dangerous, and specific sexual positioning does not pose specific risks, confirms Joshua Klein, MD, chief medical officer at Extend Fertility in New York City. That s great news, especially since hormonal shifts can power a woman s sex drive and make her want to hit the sheets more than ever.
Not only is pregnancy sex usually safe, it s also an ideal way for parents-to-be to strengthen their bond. Pregnancy is often a really emotional time for couples, especially if it s their first child, says Rose Hartzell, PhD, San Diego–based sex therapist. Sex during pregnancy can be an oasis for them to immerse themselves in the pleasure of each other, which is how they got pregnant in the first place.
