Trump Approval Falls as 63% Americans Express Disapproval !

Washington, D.C.,Apr22(BNP): Public support for U.S. President Donald Trump is witnessing a significant decline, with his approval ratings dropping to the lowest level of his second term, according to a recent survey.

As per the survey, only 37% of respondents approve of President Trump’s performance, while 63% disapprove, including nearly 50% expressing strong disapproval. The findings point to a widening gap in public confidence regarding the administration’s policies and leadership.

The report also highlights a broader sense of pessimism among citizens, with nearly two-thirds of Americans believing the country is heading in the wrong direction since the President assumed office for his second term last year.

Political analysts suggest that the declining approval ratings could pose challenges for Republicans as they prepare for upcoming midterm elections, with voter sentiment likely to play a crucial role in shaping the electoral landscape.

Ultrahuman and Les Mills Launch Les Mills PowerPlug: First Smart Ring Integration To Deliver Expert-Led Workouts Guided by Your Recovery and Cycle

Partnership brings studio-quality video workouts with real trainers into the Ultrahuman app
 
[London, 22 April 2026] — Ultrahuman, the health technology company behind the Ultrahuman Ring, today announced a global partnership with Les Mills, the global leader in group training.
 
The collaboration brings Les Mills’ studio-quality workouts directly into the Ultrahuman app, using continuous biomarker data from the Ultrahuman Ring to recommend the right workout based on each user’s individual recovery, sleep, and even cycle phase. This includes the new Ultrahuman Ring PRO, which offers category-leading 15-day battery life and a redesigned heart-rate sensing system for even greater accuracy.
 

Ultrahuman and Les Mills Launch Les Mills PowerPlug: First Smart Ring Integration To Deliver Expert-Led Workouts Guided by Your Recovery and Cycle

Today, most wearable users face a disconnect – their wearable tells them they’re under-recovered, but their training plan carries on regardless. The result is overtraining when fatigued, undertraining when ready, and a persistent gap between wearable insights and real-world training decisions. The Les Mills PowerPlug closes that gap.

 
What’s more, according to the Les Mills 2026 Global Fitness Report, 90% of people prefer workout sessions led by real instructors rather than AI-generated plans. This integration is designed around exactly that – human-led coaching, powered by real-time biometric insight.
 
Biomarker-Driven Recommendations
 
When Ultrahuman Ring users first download the Les Mills PowerPlug, they choose a personal fitness goal (Strength, Cardio, Flexibility, or General Fitness), preferred training days per week, and session length. Every recommendation adapts automatically based on recovery, sleep, and cycle phase data from the ring.
 
The integration gives Ultrahuman Ring users access to Les Mills’ diverse catalogue of video workouts — including HIIT, BODYPUMP™, strength, yoga, stretching, and recovery sessions — led by expert Instructors and available on demand.
 
Each day, the home screen shows two to three recommended Les Mills workouts matched to the user’s current status, a Quick Workout shortcut, and access to the Les Mills catalogue to browse by programme, duration, or goal.
 
The recommendation engine maps Ultrahuman’s Dynamic Recovery scores directly to workout intensity and type. Unlike static overnight recovery scores, Ultrahuman’s readings adjust dynamically to movement, non-sleep deep rest (including breathwork), and naps.
 
A well-recovered user with elevated heart rate variability and low resting heart rate might see BODYPUMP™ or BODYCOMBAT™ at the top of their feed. On the other hand, a user with accumulated sleep debt, elevated body temperature, increased resting heart rate, or low heart rate variability would be guided toward yoga, BODYBALANCE™, or a gentle mobility session instead.
 
For women who track their cycle, Les Mills PowerPlug adjusts recommendations based on menstrual phase. High-energy phases (follicular, ovulatory) unlock intense workouts like GRIT and BODYCOMBAT™, while luteal and menstrual phases automatically shift toward recovery-friendly content like BodyBalance and Yoga – with hard safety filters that remove high-impact or pelvic-floor-challenging workouts during menstruation.
 
The Ring Closes the Loop
 
What differentiates the Les Mills PowerPlug from watching Les Mills content on any other platform is what happens after the session ends. The ring stays on during every workout, and on completion, it shows:
  • Workout stats: Calories, duration, and heart rate zones are captured automatically — no manual entry required.
  • Recovery prediction: Updated post-workout forecasts show estimated readiness for the following day.
  • Movement and muscle tracking: The movement score and muscle group radar chart reflect the completed session.
  • Real-time goal tracking: Progress against daily goals updates immediately.
 
The result is a continuous feedback loop: workout choice informs recovery data, which shapes the next recommendation — and becomes more accurate over time.
 
“We built Ultrahuman to help people understand their bodies. With Les Mills, we’re closing the loop — your ring doesn’t just tell you how recovered you are, it tells you what to do about it. The right workout, at the right intensity, every day. That’s what training smarter actually looks like,” said Mohit Kumar, CEO, Ultrahuman.
 
Marina Nola, Chief Digital Distribution Officer at Les Mills, said: “Partnering with Ultrahuman enables us to bring a new level of personalization to fitness. By combining the real‑time insights of the UltraHuman smart ring with the proven motivation of Les Mills workouts, we can guide users towards the right workout for how they feel in the moment and help them stay engaged. Together, we are helping people to build sustainable habits, achieve their goals, and ultimately fall in love with fitness as part of our mission to create a fitter planet.”
 
Availability and Pricing
 
The Les Mills PowerPlug is available to Ultrahuman Ring AIR and PRO users from 22nd April, rolling out via the Ultrahuman app. It’s available globally, costing $11.99/month or $99.99/year.

Sensex Drops 756 Points, Nifty Falls 198 on Weak IT and Higher Crude

Mumbai, Apr 22 (BNP): Indian equity benchmarks ended lower on Wednesday, with the Nifty declining 198 points and the Sensex falling 756 points, driven by weakness in IT stocks and concerns over rising crude oil prices.

The IT sector emerged as the key drag on the indices, following subdued global cues and profit booking in heavyweight technology stocks. Additionally, higher crude oil prices raised concerns over inflationary pressures and input costs, further impacting investor sentiment.

Market participants remained cautious amid global uncertainty, leading to broad-based selling across select sectors. Analysts highlighted that sustained strength in crude oil could continue to influence market direction in the near term.

Despite volatility during the session, markets are expected to track global trends and crude oil movements for further cues.

New Delhi,Apr22(BNP): Reaffirming its unwavering resolve against terrorism, the Indian Army on Tuesday issued a strong message on the eve of the first anniversary of the Pahalgam terror attack, asserting that any act of terror or violation of national boundaries will be met with a decisive response.

On April 22 last year, terrorists killed 26 innocent people—mostly tourists—in Pahalgam, in an attack that shook the nation and drew widespread condemnation from governments and leaders across the world.

In response, the Indian Armed Forces launched Operation Sindoor during the intervening night of May 6 and 7. The operation involved well-coordinated and precise strikes targeting nine terrorist camps in Pakistan and Pakistan-Occupied Kashmir (PoK), resulting in the elimination of over 100 terrorists, including trainers, handlers, and associates linked to groups such as Jaish-e-Mohammed, Lashkar-e-Taiba, and Hizbul Mujahideen. The strikes were carried out with a focus on maximizing damage to terrorist infrastructure while minimizing civilian casualties.

In a social media post, the Army issued a stern warning to perpetrators of terrorism, stating that “when boundaries of humanity are crossed, the response is decisive. Justice is served. India stands united.” The post also featured a digital poster referencing Operation Sindoor with the message: “Some boundaries should never be crossed. India does not forget.”

Senior military officials have reiterated over the past year that Operation Sindoor remains ongoing, emphasizing the need for sustained vigilance and a high level of military preparedness round the clock.

As a tribute to the victims, a memorial has been erected in the meadows of Baisaran Valley in Pahalgam. Built of black marble along the banks of the Lidder River, the memorial bears the names of the 26 victims, including 25 tourists and a local resident, Adil Shah, honoring their memory and sacrifice.

Rebel Foods Faasos Gives Pizza Wraps a Bollywood Blockbuster Comeback

Speaking about the campaign, Mohit Mahajan, AVP Marketing at Rebel Foods, said,

“Pizza Wraps received a fantastic response when we first introduced them, and we knew there was an opportunity to bring them back in a way that feels fresh, entertaining and relevant. Bollywood is a shared language for millions of Indians, and it gave us the perfect canvas to tell this story with humour and familiarity. Through this campaign, we wanted to celebrate a format that combines everything people love about pizza with the convenience they look for today.”

The campaign is rooted in a simple consumer insight. While pizza continues to be universally loved, it is not always the easiest option for today’s fast-moving lifestyles. From messy slices and wasted crusts to the need to pause and sit down to share, traditional pizza doesn’t always keep up with today’s on-the-go lifestyles. Faasos Pizza Wraps were created to change that. Packed with the indulgent flavours people love, the wraps offer a cleaner, easier and more personal way to enjoy pizza. Easy to hold, convenient to eat on the go and made for single-person indulgence, they bring together comfort and convenience in one satisfying format.

To amplify the campaign, Faasos has also partnered with over 20 influencers who are creating entertaining, filmy content around Pizza Wraps. Inspired by dramatic dialogues, iconic entries and everyday Bollywood-style moments, the creator-led content is set to drive conversations across social media platforms.
