Four-Days of Passive Heat Acclimation Increases Exercise Capacity in Healthy Older Adults Living in the UK
These preliminary findings provide important new evidence that four days of passive HWI may be a practical and effective method of inducing physiological adaptations in older individuals, which may be of use in interventions to mitigate the negative impact of high environmental temperatures in this population.
