Watch Jessica Biel Do the Most Intense Variation of Squats Like It’s No Big Deal
Jessica Biel is known for taking leg day to the next level. Case in point: That time she did plyo box pistol squats with dumbbells and made it look effortless AF.
But in case you had any doubts about her insane lower-body strength, her trainer, Ben Bruno, just shared a video of Biel killing one of the most intense leg moves we've seen on the 'gram.

"Wanna see something crazy?" Bruno wrote alongside the video of Biel, who was sporting an adorable mesh crop top (Buy It; $65) and matching leggings (Buy It; $95) from her collection with Gaiam.
As if skater squats with dumbbell arm raises aren't hard enough, Bruno shared that Biel had to slowly lower her body into the single-leg squat position, over a whopping eight seconds, to complete a single rep. She did a total of six reps on each side to complete the set.

ICYDK, this type of eccentric lowering—in which your muscles are lengthening rather than contracting—is what's most likely to make you sore during a workout. And Biel was definitely feeling the burn.
"Never has anyone in the history of the world counted slower than my trainer @benbrunotraining," she wrote when sharing the video to her own Instagram.

This combination of movements looks like the ultimate test of strength, balance, and coordination, which is why it comes as no surprise that this wasn't Biel's first time attempting the exercise. "This isn't something we did one time for the video either; this was her third set and I have her do these routinely," Bruno shared. (Here's why mastering the single-leg squat should be your next fitness goal.)
Given how brutal the workout looks, the trainer added that he wasn't quite sure why Biel hasn't fired him yet. To that, she jokingly commented, "You're fired."
In all seriousness, though, the results of mastering these tough movements certainly speak for themselves. The 37-year-old actress and mother of one looks strong as hell. Keep it up, girl!

Sport24.co.za | Now Bulls MUST bag a NZ win
Rob Houwing, Sport24 chief writer
Cape Town – Failure to get a single log point out of their visit to Canberra on Friday leaves a fairly stark Super Rugby reality in front of the Bulls: the high likelihood they will have to triumph in at least one of the two fixtures on the New Zealand leg of their tour.
Lose both – they play the Blues and Highlanders in that order – and they could well be playing more for pride than a knockout-phase ticket when they entertain compatriots the Lions at Loftus in the closing round of ordinary season.
The side from Pretoria, despite no lack of heart throughout the first half at very least, were ultimately well beaten 22-10 by the Brumbies at GIO Stadium … the margin would have been bigger had Christian Leali’ifano not been largely off-target from the tee, as the hosts only converted one of their four tries and missed a penalty shot at posts as well.
But they earned a full house of table points, nevertheless, for the 4-1 try superiority they commanded, which also increases the chance of a side from the Australian conference, rather than the SA one, earning rights to a potential home semi-final in the competition.
The Brumbies simultaneously supplanted the Bulls as second-placed team to the Crusaders overall (at least in terms of tournament structural demands), dropping the tourists to fifth and the danger of slipping further, depending on results later in the current round on Saturday.
Left stranded on the 32 log points they’d gone into the key game with, Pote Human’s charges, who move onward from Australia with a 50 percent win record, really could do with a similar return at least in New Zealand, where South African victories are traditionally scarcer.
They will be mindful that last season, when the tournament shape was the same with three conferences of five teams each, the Melbourne Rebels found that 36 points wasn’t enough to get them into the finals series.
Get nothing from the New Zealand leg – though that’s in worst-case scenario — and the Bulls might then be looking at a precarious maximum haul of around 36 or 37 themselves this year, if they end on a high by winning the Highveld derby against the Lions.
So winning in either Auckland (next Friday, 09:35 SA time) or Dunedin a week later has become a near-desperate goal for a team knowing that they will be minus Handre Pollard again, and also with Duane Vermeulen returning home immediately for a mandatory Springbok-related rest.
The big No 8 took a worrying knock from a stray knee to his neck or shoulder in the 61st minute of Friday’s encounter, and when the stretcher and buggy came out, many South African hearts – including that of Bok coach Rassie Erasmus – would have fluttered in horror.
After a couple of minutes relatively motionless on his back, Vermeulen did manage to sit up, which seemed a good sign, but he was nevertheless substituted immediately, starting his “sabbatical” a little earlier than he and the already under-the-cosh team (there was no further addition to the scoreboard) might have hoped.
The Bulls were admirably keen and rugged, collectively, on defence, but its integrity was also shattered a few times by the powerful, clever running lines of brawny Brumbies outside backs like Tevita Kuridrani (he earned a hat-trick of tries) and Henry Speight.
On the relatively rare times they got into decent attacking positions themselves, the SA outfit also did themselves no favours by, for example, allowing lanky Rory Arnold to poach one of their offensive lineout balls, or, on another occasion, Scott Sio outsmarting direct rival Trevor Nyakane to earn a relieving penalty from a scrum when the Brumbies were under great pressure.
Stripped of Vermeulen’s usually rich influence on their pack’s competitiveness for the NZ leg, it is hard to see the Bulls rampaging through those shores, despite the fact that they play sides currently outside the top two in that country’s pecking order.

News24.com | Plea for leniency by the youngest of the ‘Krugersdorp Killers’ fall on deaf ears
A plea for leniency from the youngest of the accused of the remaining three “Krugersdorp Killers” has fallen on deaf ears.
Judge Jacob Francis challenged a version launched by Marcel Steyn, 21, that she was young, naïve and oblivious to the ramifications, when she participated in the brutal killing of 11 people in Krugersdorp, between 2012 and 2016.
Marcel’s lawyer, Sharon Johnson told the Gauteng High Court in Johannesburg on Friday, that her client was threatened with murder, turned into a slave and was not able to inform nor alert anyone about the killings, in which her mother and brother participated.
“When the murders began, she was afraid to tell anyone including Cecilia’s husband who is a policeman. She felt she was surrounded and had nowhere else to go. She could not tell psychologists at her school, fearing her mother who was a teacher would know and kill her,” said Johnson.
Marcel was only 14 when she allegedly started participating in the muderous spree which lasted for four years.
“She can’t come to court and deceive the court. She wanted to tell the truth. If I had advised her what to do in court, I would have withdrawn from the matter. I wouldn’t have objected if my colleagues had brought witnesses to testify against her.
“Her brother Le Roux Steyn confirmed her version about (the) death threats against her. She had to flee from home and later returned because she had nowhere to run. Le Roux also testified that Marcel walked throughout the night and came back,” said Johnson.
Marcel, Cecilia Steyn (no relation), 38 and Zack Valentine, 35, have all pleaded not guilty to a string of charges including 11 counts of murder, racketeering, fraud and participating in an enterprise.
Serving 11 life terms and 115 years
Marcel’s mother Marinda Steyn is currently serving 11 life terms and 115 years in jail. Le Roux Steyn who was also a part of the group, but entered into a plea bargain with the State last May.
He was found guilty of seven murders and sentenced to 35 years for each of them.
Ten years of his sentence was suspended on condition that he testified at the trial.
Another member of the group, John Barnard, is serving 20 years after he was sentenced in 2016.

Johnson told the court that Marcel was turned into a slave and ordered to look after Cecilia’s children. She was only allowed to go out when she was going to school or when some members of the group went on a killing spree.
Marcel also believed that Cecilia had Satanic powers over her and would quickly know if she had told anyone about the killings.
Contacted police
Judge Francis said he didn’t believe that Marcel didn’t have opportunities to inform anyone.
“She could have contacted the police and the school. She was a bright learner at school. She had the possibility to speak to someone. She could have said she was forced to take part in the murders. She knew what she was doing.
“She was intelligent and she obtained seven distinctions in matric. You want the court not to find her guilty because a ‘gun’ was placed to her head?” asked Judge Francis.
He wanted to know why her client had not contacted the police anonymously.
“The impression you give me is that she was trapped in Cecilia’s flat and had no one to talk to about this?” asked Francis.
Johnson replied that Marcel was forbidden to go to church and have friends. Her life was restricted in many ways.
Judgment is expected to be delivered on June 3.

Health24.com | Your DNA might determine whether you’re a dog lover
Could a love for canines be contained in your genes?
New research from Europe suggests that’s so after comparing the genetic makeup of more than 35 000 twin pairs with dog ownership. The researchers concluded that genetic variations explained more than half of the likelihood of having a dog.
Some are ‘dog people’
“We were surprised to see that a person’s genetic makeup appears to be a significant influence in whether they own a dog, said study author Tove Fall, a professor of molecular epidemiology at Uppsala University in Sweden.
“As such, these findings have major implications in several different fields related to understanding dog-human interaction throughout history and in modern times,” she said in a university news release.
The study results may explain why some people are “dog people”, compared to those who have no pets.
“Although dogs and other pets are common household members across the globe, little is known how they impact our daily life and health. Perhaps some people have a higher innate propensity to care for a pet than others,” Fall said.
Dogs were the first domesticated animal and have had close ties with humans for at least 15 000 years. Dogs are believed to benefit the well-being and health of their owners.
Deep and enigmatic history
“These findings are important as they suggest that supposed health benefits of owning a dog reported in some studies may be partly explained by different genetics of the people studied,” added study co-author Carri Westgarth, a lecturer in human-animal interaction at the University of Liverpool in England.
The study “cannot tell us exactly which genes are involved, but at least demonstrate for the first time that genetics and environment play about equal roles in determining dog ownership,” said senior study author Patrik Magnusson. He’s an associate professor in epidemiology at the Karolinska Institute in Solna, Sweden, and head of the Swedish Twin Registry.
The findings could add to understanding “the deep and enigmatic history of dog domestication”, said study co-author Keith Dobney, chair of human palaeoecology at the University of Liverpool.
“Decades of archaeological research have helped us construct a better picture of where and when dogs entered into the human world, but modern and ancient genetic data are now allowing us to directly explore why and how,” he added.
The study was published in the journal Scientific Reports.

News24.com | WATCH: Woman arrested while taking selfies in Sea Point to sue police: ‘I’m just hoping to get justice’
A woman who was arrested after taking selfies in Sea Point, Cape Town, has confirmed she met with lawyers on Friday and plans to sue the police for wrongful arrest.
Esethu Mcinjana said she was sitting on a bench on the promenade waiting for a job interview at a nearby hotel on May 19, when she was approached by two police officers.
“They asked what I was doing there and then started searching my bag,” Mcinjana recalled.
The police officers found a house key and a gate remote, along with her curriculum vitae.
She was later arrested, allegedly as a suspect in a string of car robberies in the area.
The 23-year-old was forced to spend a night in jail, despite protesting her innocence.
“I couldn’t even sleep, I was crying the whole night”
“It was so cold, I had five or six blankets on me,” Mcinjana said. “I couldn’t even sleep, I was crying the whole night.”
Mcinjana told News24 she had been looking for work for months and missed out on her chance at employment due to the incident.
“There is a certain company that is helping me at the moment, they’re going to help me to sue the state,” she said.
“I’m just hoping to get justice, that’s all. I didn’t commit any crime…”
Sea Point police spokesperson, Captain Elizabeth Munro, told GroundUp Mcinjana had been found to be in possession of “vehicle breaking implements”, but said there were “no prospects of successful prosecution as discussed with the senior prosecutor”.
GroundUp has since reported that the hotel confirmed with police on Sunday that Mcinjana had an appointment for an interview. She was still kept overnight, and attempts to get further comment were unsuccessful.
The Western Cape Police Ombudsman was unaware of the case and has asked for Mcinjana to lodge a complaint.
