Struggling with Summer WORKOUTS in the HEAT? This advice can be a Game Changer. |Ep.27.
from Decoding Healthcare Research · host Agora Project
In this episode, we explore the interesting area of body adaptations during exercise in the heat and explore strategies to optimize performance and tolerance under such conditions, just in time for the approaching summer. Joining us is Dr. Nathalie Kirby, an esteemed Research Scientist and Scientific Writer specializing in Human Physiology and Health. With a rich academic background and extensive research experience, Dr. Kirby sheds light on her latest study, which investigates the effects of intermittent post-exercise sauna bathing on exercise heat tolerance and performance markers. Specifically, her research aims to assess whether three weeks of endurance training combined with sauna bathing can enhance exercise heat tolerance and performance compared to endurance training alone, and whether further improvements occur with seven additional weeks of post-exercise sauna bathing.
