Women exercising at low intensities in 35°C experienced most statistically significant physiological changes after 70RH. As H and Ereq remained constant across trials, heat storage increased with each 15% rise in RH because dry and respiratory heat losses minimally offset decreased E. Higher Tre, Tsk, and resultantly higher sweat rates reflected heat storage increases as E decreased in each trial. Overall, at 35°C Ta, we found women exercising for 90 min at low intensities remained at safe rectal temperatures up to 70% RH.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
