Effectiveness of short-term heat acclimation on intermittent exercise in thermoneutral and hot environments (2015)
Journal Article
Nation, F., Birkett, M., Gleadall-Siddall, D., Burke, R., Towlson, C., Bray, J., …Garrett, A. (2015). Effectiveness of short-term heat acclimation on intermittent exercise in thermoneutral and hot environments. Extreme Physiology and Medicine, 4(1), A120. https://doi.org/10.1186/2046-7648-4-S1-A120

It is well-established that repetition of heat stress exposure has been shown to facilitate adaptations to the heat but these protocols have tended to be of a fixed work intensity, continuous exercise, long-term in duration (>7 days) and use hydratio...

Genetic factors associated with exercise performance in atmospheric hypoxia (2015)
Journal Article
Hennis, P. J., Grocott, M. P. W., Levett, D. Z. H., Montgomery, H. M., & O'Doherty, A. F. (2015). Genetic factors associated with exercise performance in atmospheric hypoxia. Sports medicine, 45(5), 745-761. https://doi.org/10.1007/s40279-015-0309-8

Background and Objective ‘Natural selection’ has been shown to have enriched the genomes of high-altitude native populations with genetic variants of advantage in this hostile hypoxic environment. In lowlanders who ascend to altitude, genetic factors... Read More about Genetic factors associated with exercise performance in atmospheric hypoxia.
