Generation Flex. by Newton, Dorenna,film director.; Collective Eye Films (Firm),dst; Kanopy (Firm),dst;
Originally produced by Collective Eye Films in 2024.THERE'S SOMETHING BIG going on with boys.Maybe you've seen an influx of teenagers at your local gym. Maybe you've noticed more kids carrying around blender bottles. Maybe you've even witnessed the social media phenomenon that is a teenage fitness influencer. What's big with boys right now is getting huge. Jacked arms. Swole chests. Chiseled abs. Spurred by intense pressure and unattainable body standards, boys are risking their physical and mental health to build muscle and lose weight. We know this because for the last year Men's Health followed the stories of four young teens in their quests to bulk up and get cut. What we found was a dark world of social media manipulation, shady supplements, and very real consequences. And we talked to the top experts in the country—from behavioral health researchers to emergency clinicians—for their insights and advice. Whether you're a parent, caregiver, coach, or kid (and, actually, especially if you're a kid), GENERATION FLEX is a warning shot to the dangers of excessive exercise, fit-fluencer culture, and supplement overuse.Mode of access: World Wide Web.

Digital madness : how social media is driving our mental health crisis-and how to restore our sanity / by Kardaras, Nicholas,1964-author.;
Includes bibliographical references."From the author of the provocative and influential Glow Kids: Revolutionary research that reveals technology's damaging effect on mental illness and suicide rates--and offers a way out. Dr. Nicholas Kardaras is at the forefront of researchers sounding the alarm about the impact of excessive technology on younger brains. In Glow Kids, he described what screen time does to children, calling it "digital heroin". Now, in Digital Madness, Dr. Kardaras turns his attention to our teens and young adults. For them, the digital world is a bubble of content you're meant to "like" or "dislike." Two choices might be considered easy, but just how detrimental is this binary thinking to mental health? From body image to politics to personal relationships to decisions, the world doesn't exist in an "up or down," "black or white," "good or bad" dynamic, and social media shouldn't either. Digital Madness explores how technology promotes sedentary isolation, polarization, rewards extremes on both sides, and has spawned a mental health and suicide pandemic from which enormous corporations profit. Dr. Kardaras offers a path out of our crisis, using examples from classical philosophy that encourage resilience, critical thinking, concentration, and other beneficial habits of mind. Digital Madness is a crucial book for parents, educators, therapists, public health professionals, and policymakers who are searching for ways to restore our young people's mental and physical health"--
