The Good
I hesitate to put this in "The Good" because it didn't so much make me smile as make my abs hurt in empathy, but this teen girl setting a world record with an hour and twenty minute plank is pretty amazing.
Barbell Denim is proposing to make jeans that will fit muscular legs. The product's a great idea, and the response (they've met their Kickstarter goal several times over) demonstrates the need to stop using fashion to promote such a narrow definition of an acceptable body.
