Happy Tuesday!Today, we’ll discuss major causes of urinary tract infections and the musical medicine that benefits the heart. 

Let’s get started. Chrisy Trudeau Managing Editor Major Cause of Urinary Tract Infections Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are incredibly common, affecting more than 10 percent of women in the United States each year. What makes UTIs particularly challenging is their strong tendency to recur. Here are the major causes of UTIs. SHARE*      READ NOWThe Musical Medicine Benefiting the Heart Beyond boosting our mental well-being, music can also have a deep and meaningful effect on our physical health, particularly on important issues.

Step 1: Push a chair against a wall to keep it from sliding. You can actually use any sturdy surface. Assume a pushup position off of either the armrests (if they are sturdy) or the seat cushion. Your arms should be straight and fully extended. 

Step 2: Slowly bend your elbows and lower your upper body toward the chair. Take one full second to perform the movement. Do not rush. Hold for one second, and then push back up until your arms are straight. 

Perform 12 repetitions per set and three sets. 

Both regular push-ups and chair push-ups involve aspects of the traditional plank movement, and as a consequence, they can be quite challenging. Start where you can and work up from there. If you find that you can do more than the recommended number, just make sure you maintain an adequate pace and do not rush. Explore More Fitness
