 See Italy Through Matteo Badini's Lens Welcome to Hero of the Week, an ongoing series sharing stories from some of the best photographers in the Pexels community. We loved the simplicity of Matteo Badini's photos as soon as we came across his work on Pexels. As part of a digital agency in the Italian city of Piacenza, Matteo works with graphic design and photography to create social media content for his day job. His own photography often documents the landscapes of Italy, from stunning coastal views to the everyday surroundings he encounters on daily walks. Pexels: How did you get started with photography?

Currently I use a Fujifilm X

Another reason for low-back soreness might be the fact that doing sit-ups on the hard floor pushes the spine into a hard surface, which could cause additional pressure on the posterior portion of the spine. Because sit-ups focus on the movement of spinal flexion and use only a few muscles (the rectus abdominis, the external obliques and hip flexors) in the front region of the mid-section, consider selecting other exercises that use muscles on both the front and back sides of the core. If your back only bothers you when doing sit-ups, skip that exercise and choose others that will strengthen the entire core as opposed to one specific area.  Other exercises that can strengthen the core and help alleviate low back pain include: Front plank Side plank Glute bridge: This is

 The ongoing news report on global supply chain challenges highlights the need for reform and transformation in manufacturing infrastructure.   A report by McKinsey & Company describes sustainable infrastructure as "resilient, socially inclusive, technologically advanced, productive and resilient to climate change".  What do these kinds of changes mean for the average consumer who wants quality products delivered on time?  The global supply chain is vulnerable not only to weather, but also to labor shortages and cyber attacks.   Today's smart consumers see opportunities to support companies that provide alternatives to these global manufacturing models.  According to the McKinsey article, other factors for successful companies in the future include organizational design, digital tools, and joint partnerships between all parties involved.  Custom furniture maker Baru, a US-based company, is an example of how putting these factors into practice locally supports the US e
