Political parties agree on championing youth voices National May 21, 2021 Islamabad: The speakers at a three-day national caucus pointed out that it was crucial to provide the youth of Pakistan a platform to express their thoughts and opinions and they should be involved in the decision making process as much as possible because the social fabric of any developing country was dependent upon its youth.

Iran press voices concern over poll turnout World May 17, 2021 Iranian newspapers voiced concern on Sunday about the potential turnout for next month’s presidential poll, a day after candidate registration ended with several heavyweights joining the race. The reformist press was particularly worried, arguing that a low turnout would favour the conservative camp as in legislative elections last year.

One of the biggest barriers to starting (or maintaining) an exercise program has to do with something I call fitness resistance the reluctance to welcome fitness into our lives in the form of a sustainable workout routine or program. In my experience as a personal trainer, I’ve discovered people seem to fall into three general camps when it comes to fitness: the resisters who don’t regularly engage, the honeymooners (the on-and-off exercisers who go all in for a short amount of time), and the consistent exercisers. While our society tends to uphold people that do health and fitness “well,” I just want to emphasize that none of these groups is inherently better than the other. Everyone is doing their best. ....
