Mastering the Push-Up

WHY PUSHUPS ARE SO HARD? PUSHUPS can be challenging because they require you to lift a significant portion of your body weight (60-75 percent) of your overall mass using your chest, shoulders and triceps, Most people ignore this, but a proper form is of the outmost importance and maintaining a straight-line from the head to the heels is absolute key in the workout. But here are some tips to get your pushups right on track. Warming up: A lot of us shun this but warming is a form of muscle relief exercise that prepares the body for the intense workout laid out for the day. Some believe in going straight to the workout, others believe in normal stretches but that is not true. Why? Warming up is never the same as stretching and this is because warming up Involves activities that get the heart pumping, which gives the body and mind the alertness it needs to prepare for the workout. Whereas, stretching is the cool down mobility exercise after the workout. Do not confuse this because doing ar...

 After decades of hard work and dedication, women have triumph over the obstacles ahead of them to achieve the title female racers. The F1 academy for female racers is the sure proof of women prowess in the world of motorsports. It all started before the dawn of racing where motorsports was completely dominated by men. It was classified as the only extreme sport worth billions this naming it the billionaires sport. Because of this, few selected competitors were chosen to race every season. Women on the other hand, had no chance of participating because of the weight of the sport that is the skill and the finances. Every racer needed a wealthy sponsor and a team of well- equipped mechanics to make their work smooth and easy and it was a stigma women could not exceed the limit most men couldn’t . But that did not stop them, a group of women ventured into engineering and other mechanical studies putting them as a force to be reckoned with. They did this with the aim of getting into th...

Boarding House Secrets

  The soft glow of a desk lamp cast long shadows across the room as Kwame sat on the lower bunk of his bed, a worn textbook open in his lap. The image captured him mid-sentence, a slight smile playing on his lips, as if he'd just uncovered a particularly intriguing piece of information or perhaps a shared joke with the unseen person holding the camera. This was his corner of the Eastern  region boarding house, a small, personal sanctuary within the bustling dormitory. The bunk above him, though empty now, held the silent promise of his roommate's return, and with it, the familiar rhythm of shared space. But tonight, the air hummed with a different kind of energy. Kwame wasn't just reading for an exam; he was delving into the "Boarding House Secrets." It wasn't a literal book of scandalous revelations, but rather the unwritten narratives that unfolded daily within the school's walls. Perhaps he was reading about the history of his own school, unearthing tal...
REWIND When Akwasi found his old camcorder in his late uncle's attic, he expected family birthdays and beach trips. Instead, he found a film he barely remembered making as a teen: The House of Memory. But the film—unfinished, chaotic—somehow depicted moments that hadn’t happened yet. A fire. A betrayal. His girlfriend leaving him. Each scene from the reel slowly started playing out in real life. Terrified, he edited the footage—cutting scenes, reversing them. When he removed the death scene of his father, his father miraculously survived a near-fatal accident the next week. Akwasi keeps the film now in a steel box under lock and key. He hasn’t watched the final reel. Because some endings... aren’t meant to be seen. Pitti Hannah Elorm 25th July,2025
 THE SHADOW REPORT Samuel Mensah, an analyst at a West African policy think-tank, stumbled upon a hidden file named “Daisy 3.0.” It was a risk model—predicting civil unrest in 12 countries due to delayed election cycles and food insecurity. The worst part? It was accurate. Each of the scenarios outlined in the file had happened months after the prediction. Yet no media had covered it. No politicians had addressed it. He gave the file to journalist Lydia Boakye. She published it, calling it “The Shadow Report.” Governments denied it. The think-tank disavowed Samuel. But the people saw the pattern—and took action. Civil societies formed new watchdog coalitions. Voters turned out in record numbers. For once, transparency won. Pitti Hannah Elorm 23rd July,2025
THE INTERVIEW THAT VANISHED Naomi Yeboah had her big break. She’d landed an interview with a tech executive turned whistleblower who had exposed biometric data theft by a global health firm operating in Africa. They met at an undisclosed location. Cameras rolled. Naomi asked hard questions. The whistleblower revealed everything—hidden servers in Lagos, bribed officials, encrypted invoices. But when Naomi returned to the station, the footage was gone. Not corrupted. Gone. The SD card was blank. She checked backups. Nothing. Even her notebook was missing from her bag. The next day, her whistleblower contact went silent. His social media accounts vanished. Afraid, Naomi published an editorial titled “The Interview You’ll Never See.” It went viral. Anonymous sources came forward. Leaks trickled in. The interview never aired. But Naomi’s courage broke the story wide open. Pitti Hannah Elorm 22nd July,2025
 THE DIRECTOR’S SECRET SCRIPT Kweku Asante was a rising director known for Afro-futuristic films. When he inherited the estate of the late director Moses Okai, he found something curious—a leather-bound script titled “Do Not Film.” Naturally, he read it. The plot was dark: a young filmmaker who produces a cursed movie and watches as each scene unfolds in his real life—love, betrayal, even death. Kweku laughed it off and began filming. Everything changed by Day 5. His lead actress broke her ankle—exactly as written. The power went out during the cemetery scene—again, just like the script. He grew obsessed. He rewrote the ending to save the main character... and that week, his own life took a turn for the better. Kweku released the film under a new name. It won awards. But he never touched the original script again. He keeps it locked in a safe. Because stories... can come true Pitti Hannah Elorm 21st July,2025
