Dehydration is when your body is losing more fluids than it is taking in. Often heat related, its other names are "heat stress", "heat exhaustion," "heat cramps," and "heat stroke," but it can occur even in cold temperatures. It's a common problem, especially among young children, people exercising, and sick people. Thankfully, it's usually fairly preventable. Steps 1 Prevent it by drinking lots of water daily! By the time you feel thirsty, you are already dehydrated. Thirst can signal a water loss of 1% of body weight. Light-headedness can occur with as little as a 2% water loss. Water contains no calories and is great for your health in other ways. The amount of water you need is dependent on body weight. Hospitals use a formula to compute water intake needs, because even a patient in a coma needs water! For an adult weighing 150#, 8 oz. of water every hour for 8-10 hours is about right, in a temperate climate, with a sedentary l...

Many people face leaky bladders when they run. The condition — stress urinary incontinence — may be caused by childbirth, obesity, hormonal deficiency, tobacco or alcohol consumption, or other conditions. Fortunately, there are many ways to avoid bladder leaks while running. This article focuses on women, but if you are a male struggling with incontinence while exercising, you should check out Prevent Male Incontinence. Method 1 Preventing Leakage With Lifestyle Changes 1 Regulate your fluid levels. While it is important to stay hydrated during a run, if you find your bladder leaks while running, you should look for ways to adjust your fluid intake to reduce your leakage levels.[1] For instance, if drinking water 30 minutes before your run leads to a leaky bladder once you’re running, try drinking water closer to the time you start running. Alternatively, try pushing your last cup of water before your run back to an hour before you lace up. If you need to pee after a certain a...

Many fitness enthusiasts head to the gym for a variety of reasons. Some find that the motivating atmosphere provides them with the gumption to hit the treadmill harder, whereas others see going to the gym as more a social opportunity. If you prefer to jump on a machine, slap on the headphones and find your focus, having another gym-goer standing in front of you, trying to start a conversation may make you want to scream. However, instead of being rude and telling them to “go scratch” you can use a few techniques to avoid becoming a social target. Steps 1 Wear headphones--even if you don’t like to workout to music. It’s far more difficult to be open to a conversation if you are listening to music and “in the zone” than easy to access without the headphones. Act like you don’t know someone is trying to talk to you. Either look down or find a focal point that is away from where someone could get into your social space. Even if you can tell someone is talking to you peripherally act...

Interviews are hard for both interviewers and interviewees, and it can be stressful to come up with good questions and avoid inappropriate ones. If you’re an interviewer, it can be difficult to think of ways to test your interviewees without being intrusive, and if you’re an interviewee, it can be hard to make the right impression with your questions. If you’ve ever felt anxious or unsure about how to avoid bad interview questions, don’t stress! There are simple and easy ways to avoid asking bad questions, no matter who you are. Method 1 Avoiding Bad Questions as an Interviewer 1 Write a summary of your hiring goals. This will help you narrow down what questions to ask.[1][2] You could bullet point three things you are looking for in an interviewee to get you started. 2 Plan relevant questions to ask. Write a list of interview questions based on your hiring goals and keep them the same across all your interviews.[3][4] For example, ask all interviewees what they would do in a...

An aneurysm is a bulge in the wall of a blood vessel caused by the weakening of the vessel wall. Aneurysms can occur in any blood vessel, but the most dangerous aneurysms are those that form in the aorta or the arteries in the brain. Ruptures in the vessels can lead to death up to half the time they occur. Aneurysms are often difficult to detect until they rupture, and equally difficult to prevent, but there are steps you can take to lower your risk of an aneurysm and understand whether you may need screening.[1] See Step 1 for more information. Part 1 Getting Screened 1 Learn your family history. If at least two other members of your family have had aneurysms, either recently or in the past, you should be screened for the possibility of developing an aneurysm yourself. Doctors normally recommend such screenings every five years. Most aneurysms are detected after the fact, when they've already become medical emergencies, or when brain imaging is performed for other purpose...

The Achilles tendon is a tendon that attaches the calf muscle to the heel bone. The tendon's position in the body puts it under a lot of strain, especially during exercise. Due to this strain, the Achilles tendon has a tendency to become injured easily, especially in those with pre-existing foot problems or those who exercise vigorously on a regular basis. To help prevent Achilles tendon injuries, make sure you stretch your legs regularly, wear the right shoes for the activity, alternate between high and low impact exercises, and seek medical help early on. Method 1 Reducing Injuries in Daily Life 1 Maintain a healthy weight. Extra weight adds stress to the Achilles tendons and may contribute to serious injuries. Proper diet and exercise can help keep off unwanted weight and allow you less stress and greater flexibility as you exercise and throughout your daily activities.[1] Try to get at least 30 minutes of moderate-impact cardiovascular activity for at least five days a...

Traveling through a desert climate can be grueling for driver and vehicle, but getting stuck in a desert climate in an emergency can be downright dangerous if you don't know how to protect yourself or have the essentials to keep yourself and your car safe. Know how to assemble an emergency roadside kit for a desert climate to stay safe when traveling. Steps 1 Prepare for car repairs Include foam sealant or a battery-powered air compressor in your desert roadside kit. These will aid in a quick repair in case of a flat tire. Also store an extra jug of coolant in case your car overheats. Carry jumper cables and a tire jack in your car trunk at all times. 2 Stay hydrated The temperature of the desert will be one of your worst enemies if you get stranded in a roadside emergency. Make sure your desert roadside emergency kit includes several bottles of water. Pack enough water to provide yourself with a gallon of water per day in the event that you get stranded for a long period...

Asking interview questions is a much smoother process if you do research and prepare the questions beforehand. Begin the interview with straightforward questions, and keep all questions brief and concise. Make your interview subject feel comfortable by initiating small talk before the interview, showing them that you are listening, and letting them speak. If possible, record the interview and avoid accepting simple “yes” or “no” answers. Method 1 Putting the Interview Subject at Ease 1 Make the interview seem casual. To set your respondent at ease, make the interview seem as casual as possible. Beforehand, refer to the interview as an opportunity for you to talk with them (as opposed to interviewing them), which will put less pressure on them as the designated subject. Be friendly and kind, and allow them to see any nervousness you may be feeling as well.[1] Before starting the actual interview, engage your interview subject in casual small talk to break the ice. Say somethin...

Do you have a female friend who you want to become more than a friend? While knowing your friend well might seem like an advantage – at least you're not talking to a stranger and asking for a date – it can be difficult to make the transition from friendship to romantic relationship. But it's not impossible. You can ask a friend out without bruising your ego and without ruining your friendship. Part 1 Asking Your Female Friend Out 1 Wait for the right moment to ask your friend out. It should be when you two are alone and feel comfortable and relaxed. You can slip it into a conversation casually. Suggest playfully that you can be her date for the night and show her what it would be like to date you. You should ideally ask her out in person, but over the phone is also an acceptable option. Do not ask someone out over e-mail or Facebook.[1] Ask her when you are alone together. She may feel uncomfortable and embarrassed if her friends are around. That may cause her just to...

Even if you walk out of an interview feeling like it was a success, you still have to wait for the company to make a decision. Sending a follow-up message is a way to move on with your life. All you need to do is send a simple email or make a short call. Be polite and to the point when asking about your application and you may get more information about where you stand in the application process. Method 1 Calling Your Interviewer 1 Call the interviewer directly if they gave you their number. You should make use of any contact number you were given in the interview. If the interviewer gave you their work number, you can score some points by getting in touch with them directly. If they didn’t give you a number, look up the company’s main number and call it to get in touch with someone.[1] By calling the main number, you may get directed to a boss or supervisor. Higher-level employees may be more straightforward about your application. Avoid looking up personal numbers to call, ...
