Cold weather can have deleterious effects on health, tolerance, and performance. This
paper will review the physiological responses and external factors that impact cold tolerance …

Twelve males completed three incremental, discontinuous treadmill tests in the heat [31.9
(1.0)° C, 61.9 (8.9)%] to determine speed at two fixed blood lactate concentrations (2 and 3.5 …

This study assessed the between-test reliability of oxygen cost (OC) and energy cost (EC) in
distance runners, and contrasted it with the smallest worthwhile change (SWC) of these …

Purpose The purpose of this experiment was to evaluate the effect of load carriage in a
range of temperatures to establish the interaction between cold exposure, the magnitude of …

The aim of this study was to examine the acute effects of prolonged static stretching (SS) on
running economy. Ten male runners ([Vdot] O2peak 60.1±7.3 ml· kg− 1· min− 1) performed …

The excess heat accumulated during exercise can lead to stress-induced fatigue, possibly
impairing athletic performance. Various precooling techniques have been applied to …

The effect of compression tights on running economy is unclear. The purpose of this
investigation was to assess the influence of compression tights on economy. Following an …

Objectives To determine the effects of heat stress on ankle proprioception and running gait
pattern. Design Counterbalanced repeated measures. Methods 12 trained runners …

Nowadays, athletes are increasingly exposed to high environmental temperatures. While
many studies investigated the effects of heat stress on human physiology, the effects of …

Cold water immersion (CWI) is a method highly used in the recovery from fatiguing exercise
yet its efficacy is debated. It has been proposed that the resultant suppressed inflammation …
