1) Summary: Pulmonologist and Exercise Physiologists - How to Breathe During Winter WorkoutsName: Aleisha Fetters Openfit
Category: Lifestyle and FitnessEmail: query-bllf@helpareporter.net
Media Outlet: Openfit
Deadline: 7:00 PM CST - 27 November
Query:
Exercise-induced bronchoconstriction affects up to 20 percent of
adults, with exercising in cooler temps being a primary trigger.
While hard, heavy breathing on its own can dry out the windpipe,
cool, dry air further dehumidifies it. The result: It becomes
painful to breathe and your chances of getting enough air to
fuel your workouts dwindles. Hello, exhaustion and side
stitches! This article will be a listicle of 5-7 ways to reduce
EIB, with each action item fleshed out with supporting research
and interviews with MDs and physiologists. Please include any
top-line tips in your pitch and, if its a fit, I will respond
with follow-up questions.
Requirements:
MD, CPT, or CSCS required. I will not respond to pitches from
experts without the required credentials.

Hello Gynecologists!
I'm reaching out because I'm working on a piece for Healthline
called, "Things to Know Before You Try to Remove Your IUD At
Home." I'm looking for an expert who can speak to the fact that
this is not optimal, but also give helpful tips for folks who
*don't* have another option. QUESTIONS 1. How is an IUD
typically removed? Is it supposed to be done by the doctor??
WHY/ 2. When it is done at the doctor, is it painful? 3. Are
there any complications that can happen with exertion? Can
pieces of the device get stuck??? 4. Okay... so let's say you
can feel the IUD string... can you just yank it and take it out
at home??? 5. If someone doesn't have access to healthcare and
it literally isn't possible for them to remove it at home...
what do they do? Is there a position that works best? 6. If you
remove it and it looks like a little bit was left inside you, is
that OK? Or, do you need to seek medical attention? What are a
normal or abnormal amount of symptoms? 7. If you try to remove
it and it FEELS stuck... should you keep pulling? Or, should you
stop?

I'm looking for people holding outdoor winter fitness classes in
cold climates. Covid sent a lot of gyms and studios and personal
trainers outside over the summer an fall, but now that winter's
here I'm wondering who is continuing to hold classes outside and
how you're making it happen? I'd love to talk to trainers, gym
owners and clients -- I'm sure some people are repeat customers
for outdoor bootcamps or whatever, but I'd also love to talk to
people who are trying outdoor winter classes for the first time
this year bc of Covid concerns about indoor workouts. My story
is about organized fitness classes outdoors in COLD places. I
love you Florida, the Deep South, the South West, SoCal and
Hawai'ii, but this story is not about you. You'll get your turn,
just not today. Thanks.
Requirements:
Must be in the US or Canada (Yes, I'd love to hear from Canada

to local businesses, social justice organizations and nonprofits

Invest in the market in the hopes of COVID-vaccine-related
economic growth?
What advice would you give someone who is thinking about making
2021 financial resolutions?
