According to a new study, those diagnosed with Parkinson’s Disease should invest in a pair of running kicks. A New York Times article about a JAMA Neurology Network published study states that intense treadmill usage might just slow the advancement of the disease in adults facing early stages. There is no cure for Parkinson’s but there are certain drugs that will slow down symptoms, but according to the article they will start losing effectiveness over time....

Building a good campfire is not only a bankable camping skill, it could also save a life. But you can also start a wildfire. Our forests are more vulnerable than ever with warmer, dry summers and fewer prescribed burns that help make a forest more resilient. With camping season in full swing, we caught up with 20-year outdoor guide Josh Butson, owner of San Juan Outdoor Adventures in Telluride, CO, to get tips on how to build a safe and prosperous campfire....

For Japanese whisky lovers, August will show a brief silver lining among a seemingly endless series of clouds. Most of the news from Japan for the last couple of years has been about discontinued products, lower-than-expected volumes, and generally severe shortages of the stuff everyone has been craving. But the United States will actually see a new Japanese whisky release for the first time in a couple of years, and it’s actually a familiar and well-loved product....

Need one more reason you should consistently exercise and eat healthily? Well, if you care about the vitality of your sperm, then keeping active and at a normal bodyweight should be tops on your list: A new study has shown that being fat and having strong swimmers is not very compatible. In the study, which was recently published in the journal Andrologia, scientists researched 1,285 men, and found that the obese guys had poor sperm quality....

Arizona is notorious for its flattening summertime heat, but longtime desert dwellers know there is respite if you’re willing to walk for it. Havasupai Falls, located on the Havasupai tribal lands just outside the South Rim of Grand Canyon National Park, isn’t just one magnificent aqua cascade, either; your 10-mile hike to the campground is rewarded with access to several falls, from the namesake Havasu to New Navajo, Mooney, Beaver and more....

Graves first deployed to St. Croix for Hurricane Irma, not knowing his home island was about to be hit as well. Photo: Waves for Water Professional surfer Dylan Graves has called Puerto Rico home since he was one year old. Currently living in California while his wife pursues a degree, he returned to Puerto Rico this month on a mission: to check on his family and friends, whom he had not heard from since Hurricane Maria made landfall, and to help Waves for Water distribute the 500 water filters loaded into his seven pieces of luggage....

These little nuggets from the sea are nutritional powerhouses. Raw and unadorned, a dozen oysters provide 145 calories, 9g of protein, and 572% of your recommended daily allowance of zinc. Skip the breading and frying, though. This grilled recipe from New Orleans-based dietitian Molly Kimball, R.D., is a healthier oyster indulgence. Pro tip: “Oysters get less slick and tighten up when you grill them,” says Kimball. Plus, since they’re best on the rawer side, you don’t need to cook them all the way through....

For the weeks (and likely months) ahead, our lives are all about self-isolation due to the COVID-19 pandemic. We can’t leave our houses for more than groceries or fresh air. We won’t be face to face with families, friends, colleagues, or dating app matches for an indefinite amount of time. A lot of people, as a result, will probably let their hygiene and grooming regimen slide. On the one hand, that’s understandable, since our barbers and stylists are also quarantined—and since nobody can smell your B....

Everyone knows Salty Jefferson. Every paddler has heard the tales of ol’ Salty, or at least versions of them. The stories are the stuff of legends — the type that circulates around the campfire. Stories born of bad choices. And bad choices Salty has made. If there was ever a chance to make an errant call that results in serious consequence, Salty has erred. Again and again. And again. He has lived to tell us these tales (though his questionable paddling partners are not so lucky), for he has learned every kind of paddling lesson … the hard way....

Every guy needs a hoodie right now. It’s been hoodie weather for a bit now and it will stay that way for a long time. It’s just going to get even more necessary as time marches on towards the holidays. For most guys, a hoodie isn’t going to be all that fitting during the day at work. But for others, a hoodie will be just the thing for the workday. When it starts to get really cold, it really doesn’t matter what is fitting for work....

At the cover shoot for the November issue of Men’s Journal, Australian actor Chris Hemsworth got to talking about his love of surfing — how, as a child, the early morning trips he’d take to the beach with his father got him hooked on the sport, and how it helps him calm down and rediscover himself after extended periods of shooting. “My wife’s always saying, ‘Come on, let’s do something different!...

Brett Eldredge is at the top of the charts. The country music singer, songwriter, and producer put three No.1 singles on the Billboard country charts with his debut album, Bring You Back, and his new self-titled record is on its way to even greater success. But how does a country music star constantly on the road (he’s currently touring with Luke Bryan) eat healthy and stay fit? Check out our interview with Eldredge in the above video to find out....

The comparison between Evel Knievel and Travis Pastrana is almost too easy to make. Both men jumped motorcycles, broke bones, and pushed boundaries. While that comparison is easy to make, the further deeper you dive, the more the two men start to look like one. Pastrana isn’t a copycat, he’s the second coming. It’s less that he chose to recreate some of Evel’s stunts in the upcoming Las Vegas “Evel Live” show on July 8, and more that the universe did....

It was the early 1990s, and the advent of radio collars, satellite transmitters and GPS technology gave biologists a revealing scope of incredible distances covered by animals. Travels like a wolf named Pluie, who was radio-collared in southern Alberta, was tracked as she covered an area 10 times the size of Yellowstone National Park and 15 times that of Banff National Park. And inspired by scientific information that showed wildlife requiring large distances to support their need to roam, Yellowstone to Yukon Conservation Initiative (Y2Y) was started in 1993....

Being in business 190 years is a big milestone for any company, but it’s basically unheard of for craft breweries—except for one: Yuengling brewery in Pottsville, PA, which has been serving up beer since 1829. To mark its 190th year, the company is gearing up to release special commemorative beer cans starting this month, USA Today reports. The company’s signature Yuengling Lager will be available in five limited edition cans, with a new design rolling out each month between now and April....
