February Streaming Guide: What to Watch on Netflix, Hulu, and More


It’s the shortest month of the year, but don’t let that stop you from catching up on all the TV and movies you’ve been putting off watching while you try and stick to your New Year’s resolutions.

Here’s a look at all the new series, seasons, hit movies, fan favorites and classics coming to the major streaming platforms in February.

What To Watch on Netflix: February 2022

Murderville (February 3)
In this comedy series that’s spoof of crime shows and legal procedurals, Will Arnett plays Senior Detective Terry Seattle, who gets paired up with guest celebrities playing themselves in each episode. And the catch? Everything is improvised, meaning Det. Seattle and his celebrity partner will have to guess their way through everything and make it up on the spot. Naturally, hilarity ensues. Some of the guest stars for the first season include Conan O’Brien, former NFL star Marshawn Lynch, Ken Jeong, Sharon Stone and Kumail Nanjiani.

Space Force Season 2 (February 18)
Steve Carrell returns for Season 2 of Space Force, playing General Mark R. Naird, the first Chief of Space Operations for the organization. The first season followed a team of military personnel, scientists and politicians as they worked to establish the sixth branch of the U.S. Armed Forces, often clashing along the way. All those clashes finally came to a head when an all-out war almost broke out at the end of the first season. Now Carrell’s General Naird and his team will have to prove why his department is worth keeping around at all.  Carell leads and all-star supporting cast that includes John Malkovitch, Lisa Kudrow, Ben Schwartz, Jane Lynch and Jimmy O. Yang for this seven-episode second season.

Inventing Anna (February 11)
This real-life story is almost too wild to believe – which is exactly how con woman Anna Delvey (Julia Garner) convinced people around New York City she was a German heiress who was rich beyond belief. In reality, she conned money, vacations and more from the elite set of NYC party people before it all came crashing down. Garner stars in the series following her Emmy-winning work on another Netflix show, Ozark, which you should watch too if you haven’t yet.

Vikings: Valhalla (February 25)
If you’re looking for some action, Vikings: Valhalla is your ticket. Set 100 years after the Vikings series that ran for 89 episodes, this spin-off follows a group of Norse legends that includes Leif Erikson, Freydís Eiríksdóttir, and Harald Hardrada as they battle across Europe.

What To Watch on HBO Max: February 2022

KIMI (February 10)
After dropping the crime caper No Sudden Move last summer, director Steven Soderbergh is back with another HBO Max movie exclusive, this time with the dramatic thriller KIMI, starring Zoë Kravitz (The Batman). Set during the COVID-19 pandemic, Kravitz plays a tech worker who is afraid to leave her apartment, instead staying inside and working as an analyst reviewing crime data. But when she thinks she discovers evidence of a crime and gets resistance from her superiors when she tries to report it, she finds herself in the middle of a conspiracy and must overcome her biggest fear of stepping outside.

Raised By Wolves Season 2 (February 3)
One of the wilder shows to hit HBO Max in 2020 was Raised By Wolves, a sci-fi drama with plenty of action and big questions about what it means to be human and life in the aftermath of Earth being destroyed. Produced by legendary filmmaker Ridley Scott (Alien, Blade Runner, Gladiator), the series centers on two androids who are responsible for repopulating mankind on colony on a new planet following a massive war. Different sects of religions battle against each other on the new planet, making life for the androids even harder than they ever imagined. The set pieces and action of this series is done with movie-level filmmaking, and the second season picks up after some major cliffhangers from Season 1.

HBO Max is getting an influx of new movies this month, including awards contenders Nightmare Alley (February 1) and The French Dispatch (February 25). Nightmare Alley is director Guillermo del Toro’s first film since his Oscar-winning The Shape of Water and stars Bradley Cooper as a conman who convinces people he has clairvoyant skills after working with a traveling carnival.  The action-packed prequel The King’s Man (February 18) starts streaming this month as well, showing the origins of how the Kingsman spy agency started during the uneasy times surrounding World War I. The Ryan Reynolds comedy Free Guy, which stars Reynolds as a background character of a video game who has to save his world when he finds out the game is shutting down, starts streaming on February 23.  You can also catch the finales of the HBO Max series Peacemaker (February 17) starring John Cena as the titular anti-hero, and Season 2 of Euphoria (February 27).

What To Watch on Disney Plus: February 2022

While there isn’t much coming to Disney Plus this month, Star Wars fans are hyped up for the final two episodes of The Book of Boba Fett (February 2 and February 9). Through the season, Boba Fett has been trying to navigate the criminal underworld of Tatooine, building both allies and enemies along the way. Now, with some help from his partner Fennec Shand (Ming-Na Wen) and the Mandalorian (Pedro Pascal) himself, Boba will face off against the dangerous Pykes for control of the planet.

The Ryan Reynolds video game-set comedy Free Guy comes to the platform, along with a behind-the-scenes look at the Marvel series Hawkeye with Marvel Studios: Assembled – The Making of Hawkeye. The documentary series will take fans behind the curtain to see how Jeremy Renner and Hailee Steinfeld transformed into Hawkeye and Kate Bishop to take New York City by storm in the titular series. The documentary will also show how the series re-created Rockefeller Center and its iconic ice rink to film the climax of the show in the finale. MCU fans can also enjoy a similar look at the epic movie Eternals with Marvel Studios: Assembled – The Making of Eternals. With a story that spanned thousands of years across the Marvel timeline, the film had one of the biggest scopes of any MCU movie and was shot in numerous locations around the world like the Canary Islands, which you’ll get to see in this documentary.

What To Watch on Amazon Prime: February 2022

Reacher (February 4)
Following two movies starring Tom Cruise, the popular character Jack Reacher gets a new look on TV with Reacher. Starring the taller-than-Cruise Alan Ritchson (TV’s Aquaman) as the titular Reacher, the series follows former U.S. Army major as he finds himself in dangerous situations and helping people from town to town across the country. The first season will be eight episodes long and is adapted from Killing Floor, which is the first book in the Jack Reacher series.

The award-winning series The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel (February 18) is back for a fourth season, starring Rachel Brosnahan as Miriam “Midge” Maisel and Alex Borstein as her manager Susie Myerson. The two will have a big challenge after Midge ruined her chances to be the opening act for the high-profile singer Shy Baldwin in the Season 3 finale, making her almost unemployable around the comedy circuit. Also keep an eye out for Legend of Vox Machina (February 18), an animated series that combines comedy and violence as a spoof/homage to Dungeons & Dragons.

Amazon Prime is bringing a great lineup of movies to the platform this month (all starting February 1), including a few of the Die Hard series films, with Die Hard, Die Hard: With A Vengeance and Live Free or Die Hard becoming available. Nicholas Cage has two fan-favorite movies available to stream, with The Rock and Gone In Sixty Seconds, along with Clive Owen’s historical epic King Arthur. The classic stoner comedy Half Baked, the true-life crime drama Alpha Dog, the Johnny Cash biopic Walk the Line, and the Oscar-winning Platoon also are available.

What To Watch on Apple TV+: February 2022

Two new drama series are starting up this month, including Suspicion (February 4) and Severance (February 18). Uma Thurman (Kill Bill) stars in Suspicion as American media mogul Katherine Newman, who finds that her son has been kidnapped. The mystery series finds five seemingly random people identified as suspects in the disappearance, who must race against time to try and prove their innocence – even if the evidence seems to point to them as the culprits. The series, which is based on the Israeli show False Flag, bounces between New York City and London as the police and Katherine try to unravel the mystery.

Severance is a thriller series executive produced by Ben Stiller, which follows a group of people who work at Lumon Industries, a mysterious company that offers a “severance” program that allows employees to keep their work and personal memories completely separate – literally. If you’re friends with someone at work here, the moment you step outside the office you won’t realize you know each other. But when one employee starts to realize that there might be something more nefarious going on, the company tries to stop him from digging deeper. Adam Scott leads an all-star cast that includes John Turturro, Patricia Arquette and Christopher Walken, while Stiller is directing multiple episodes.

The Sky is Everywhere, an adaptation of the novel of the same name by Jandy Nelson starts streaming on February 11. The story follows a high school girl who is dealing with the sudden death of her older sister and her involvement with her sister’s former fiancé.  The documentary series Lincoln’s Dilemma will debut on February 18 with four episodes, mainly following the administration of President Abraham Lincoln as he tries to end slavery. The series is narrated by Jeffrey Wright and also includes actors Bill Camp and Leslie Odom Jr. as the voices of President Lincoln and Frederick Douglass.

What To Watch on Hulu: February 2022

Pam & Tommy (February 2)
The most notable release on Hulu this month is the series Pam & Tommy, starring Lily James (Downton Abbey) and Sebastian Stan (The Falcon and the Winter Soldier) as actress Pamela Anderson and Mötley Crüe drummer Tommy Lee. The main stars look incredibly like their real-life counterparts in the series, which follows the marriage of Anderson and Lee and the controversial release of a sex tape of the two. Seth Rogen (who also is a producer on the series) and Nick Offerman star as two guys who get their hands on the tape and release it, while Taylor Schilling (Orange is the New Black) and comedian Andrew Dice Clay (Blue Jasmine) are also part of the supporting cast.

Among the new films hitting Hulu this month is Matthew Vaughn’s Kingsman prequel The King’s Man, starring Ralph Fiennes, Harris Dickinson, Daniel Brühl, Djimon Hounsou, Gemma Arterton, Rhys Ifans, and Matthew Goode (February 18). The platform also brings some major classics to their library starting February 1, including a bunch of Batman films, just in time for the release of Robert Pattinson’s The Batman on March 4. You can pick your own variety of Bruce Wayne, with Michael Keaton’s Batman and Batman Returns, Val Kilmer’s Batman Forever, and George Clooney’s Batman & Robin. The sports comedy Major League, the crime drama Narc, the musical comedy That Thing You Do, Cameron Crowe’s Academy Award-winning Almost Famous, and David Fincher’s modern day classic Fight Club also start streaming (all February 1).

Best Time-Under-Tension Workout for Total-Body Strength

Published

on

Barbell Back Squat


The key to 360-degree muscle: 90-degree eccentric isometrics. It might seem like we’re throwing a lot of geometry at you, but the concept behind time under tension (TUT) is simple, says Joel Seedman, PhD, owner of Advanced Human Performance: “Perform the lowering phase of a movement in a slow, controlled fashion, usually 3 to 5 seconds; pause in the stretched position, typically around 90 degrees; then perform the lifting phase in a powerful yet controlled fashion.” Believe us, a time-under-tension workout can humble even seasoned lifters…Eccentric isometrics are like the pressure cooker of training.

“Rather than mindlessly performing slow-tempo reps, you’re using the increased time under tension as a means to fine-tune your body mechanics and alignment, which requires more mental engagement and focus,” Seedman adds.

If you want to forge functional muscle mass and strength while simultaneously bulletproofing the joints and connective tissue, give this 10-move, full-body eccentric isometrics workout a go.

Directions

Perform the following moves as 90-degree eccentric isometrics following the above protocol. Use heavy weight, but not at the detriment of proper form. Rest 60 to 90 seconds between sets and 2 minutes between circuits. Perform once every 2 to 4 days for optimal results.

Best Time-Under-Tension Workout for Total-Body Strength

Circuit 1

Marius Bugge

A. Barbell Back Squat

Set a squat rack up with heavy weight, then grasp bar and step under it. Squeeze shoulder blades together, then stand to unrack bar and step back with feet shoulder-width apart. Inhale, hinge at hips and slowly bend knees to 90 degrees. Pause, keeping natural arch in low back, then extend through hips to powerfully stand. 3 x 4-6 reps

B. Renegade Row

Start in the top position of a pushup with hands shoulder-width apart on moderate-to-heavy dumbbells (shown). Explosively drive right elbow back to row dumbbell toward ribs while balancing on opposite hand and feet. Pause, then slowly lower weight, stopping a few inches above floor. Switch sides after all reps are done. 3 x 5 reps each side

Circuit 2

A. Dumbbell Bentover Row

Stand with feet hip-width apart, holding two moderate-to-heavy dumbbells in front of thighs, palms facing you. Push hips back and hinge torso forward so it’s nearly parallel to floor, soft bend in knees. Dumbbells should be near shins. Drive elbows back to row weights toward ribs. Pause, then slowly lower down for 3 to 5 seconds. 3 x 4-5 reps

Set an adjustable bench to a 30- to 45-degree angle and lie back with dumbbells in either hand. Engage core and lift legs off floor, flexing feet. Press weights overhead, palms in. Slowly lower to 90 degrees, staying tight and compact. Pause, then drive weights up directly over chest. 3 x 4-5 reps

Stand lunge-length in front of a flat bench, holding heavy dumbbells in each hand by your sides, palms facing in. Rest the ball on top (shoe’s laces) of your right foot behind you on the bench. Slowly lower your body until your front thigh is parallel to the floor. Pause, then drive through your heel to stand. Switch sides after all reps are complete. 2 x 3-4 reps each side

B. Single-leg Romanian Deadlift

Stand with feet hip-width apart holding dumbbells or kettlebells. Drive right leg up, foot flexed, knee aligned with hip, making a 90-degree angle. Hinge at hips as you slowly lever your torso toward floor, lowering weights and driving right leg back for counterbalance. Hold, then squeeze glutes to reverse. 2 x 3-4 reps each side

A. Pullup

Hang from a pullup bar using an overhand grip with legs extended and feet flexed. Engage lats and draw shoulders down your back, then pull yourself up until chin is higher than hands. Pause at the top, then slowly lower. Pause at bottom, then reset before your next rep. 2-3 x 4-5 reps

B. Kneeling Overhead Barbell Press

Hold a bar with moderate-to-heavy load at shoulder level with forearms perpendicular to floor. Kneel at end of bench with feet flexed to grip edge for support. Inhale, engage your core and glutes, then press the bar overhead, pushing your head forward so it passes your face, exhaling at the top.
Slowly lower until elbows are at 90 degrees, then hold to maintain tension. Begin your next rep from here. 2-3 x 4-5 reps

Circuit 5

A. Dumbbell Pushup

Place hands on dumbbells (this provides greater range of motion) at shoulder width and feet wider than shoulder width with just toes touching the ground. Keep head neutral and hips high to increase tension on core, chest and tris and reduce stress on spine. Slowly lower to the floor. Stop
once elbows hit 90 degrees, pause, then push up to start. 1-2 x 6-8 reps

B. Biceps Curl

Stand with feet hip-width apart with moderate-to-heavy dumbbells in each hand hanging by sides. Engage biceps to curl the weights up, keeping upper arms still. Pause at the top, then lower slowly. Don’t let arms drop all the way down to keep greater time under tension on biceps. 1-2 x 6-8 reps
