Ice Slurry and Cold Drink Reduces Exercise Induced Physiological Strain in the Heat
… the effects of an ice slurry beverage on heat strain and thermoregulatory responses during prolonged exercise in the heat. Methods: Twenty males consumed slurry (ICE, -1.4 ± 0.2 °C), cold drink (COLD, -0.7 ± 0.2 °C), or room temperature drink (RT, 21.5 ± 1.0 °C), while walking at 50% of VO2max …

Heat acclimatization during seasonal wildfire suppression
… and skin (Tsk) temperatures, heart rate (HR), physiological strain index (PSI), plasma volume change, sweat rate and perceived exertion (RPE) were measured during the heat stress trials. Results: Average peak VO2 was similar between groups (54.1 ± 1.3 and 57.3 ± 2.0 ml.kg-1.min-1, WLFFs and …
