Also a fitness enthusiast, Clint Coffman enjoys running when he has the opportunity. For runners who live in the Southeast U.S., a key challenge each summer is maintaining a target pace and distance in humid conditions.

Running increases the body temperature and causes sweat. While in dry heat conditions sweat will evaporate and cool the skin, in humid conditions the air is already saturated with water. As a result, sweat does not evaporate readily to bring about the same cooling effect.

In addition, sweat contains plasma as one of its major components and lowers a runner's blood volume. This means that proper hydration is critical in humid conditions. In addition to drinking water, it is advisable to use electrolyte supplements or drink electrolyte-filled beverages such as Gatorade.

Other common sense strategies for running in humid conditions include planning out a route that maximizes shade and access to drinking water. Runners should also maintain a comfortable pace and invest in light, loose running gear designed specifically to wick away sweat and dry rapidly.

Paddle boarding requires only a board and a paddle to move oneself through the water. While people may lie down on their boards or assume a kneeling position, one of the most popular forms of paddle boarding is stand-up paddle boarding, or SUP. This activity requires the ability to balance on the board while in an upright position. For many beginners, getting into a standing position on an unstable base can be difficult. To help with this, paddlers should keep a few tips in mind.

To start, paddlers should view getting up on the board as a series of slow movements, since moving too quickly can result in a fall. Ideally, the paddler should start in shallow water, around knee-deep when standing on the bottom. The paddler should grip the board's sides and maneuver to kneeling in a spot that is slightly back from the paddle board's center. Then they should move the feet one at a time to stand in a crouched position. Next, they should raising the chest upwards, and then finally straighten to full height.

A fun, accessible activity that provides a full-body core workout, stand-up paddleboarding (SUP) involves standing up on a surf-like board and using a paddle to propel yourself through the water. If you're new to the sport, keep these helpful tips in mind:

1. Use a leash. Whatever the water conditions or skill level, a leash will prevent you from getting separated from your board if you fall off.

2. Hold the paddle correctly. Instead of holding it with two hands like a broom, use one hand on the top of the paddle and one hand on the shaft.

3. Use the correct muscles. Separate your hands as wide as your shoulders and use large strokes, which will let your strong back muscles and abdominal muscles do most of the work.

4. Look at the horizon, not the board. This will aid in balance and stability.

Clint Coffman is a Clearwater, Florida, professional who sells responsive medical equipment for leading firm Medtronic. Through this work, Clint Coffman has developed extensive knowledge about aortic aneurysm repair and peripheral artery disease (PAD).

A cardiovascular disease associated with the buildup of fatty substances (such as cholesterol) in the limbs, PAD is most commonly felt in the legs and has symptoms that include pain when walking. Recent research at the Karolinska Institute in Stockholm, published in the Journal of the American Heart Association, has highlighted the potential connections between cardiovascular health and psychosocial factors.

A particular risk factor is work-related stress, which has previously been linked to a range of atherosclerotic diseases. The current research focused on records of nearly 140,000 men and women aged 39-49 across Scandinavia and the United Kingdom. Participants did not have a history of PAD when the studies began, and were followed for an average of 12.8 years.

After adjusting for factors such as sex, age, and lifestyle, the findings were significant: Participants who reported work-related stress were 1.4 times more likely to develop peripheral artery disease than those who did not. This suggests that a major factor in preventing PAD may be to control stressors that are linked to the workplace.
