Data for: The impact of heat acclimation on physiological response to exercise and performance at hot and temperate conditions

Dataset

Description

Dataset consisting of heart rate, sweat rate, skin temperature, core temperature during a 15 minute time trial in temperate and hot conditions before and after heat acclimation.

The aim of this study is to analyse the effectiveness of a 3-week intermittent exercise heat acclimation intervention on performance and physiological response during exercise at both temperate and hot environmental conditions. 8 physically active males (age: 24 ± 4 years, height: 183 ± 6cm, body mass: 91 ± 17kg, body fat %: 17.6 ± 9.0%) were recruited. A 15-minute cycling time trial in hot (35°C, 30% RH) and temperate (~13°C, ~30% RH) as well as the Yo-Yo IRL1 in temperate conditions were performed.
