Whole body heat loss is reduced in older males during short bouts of intermittent exercise

Whole body heat loss is reduced in older males during short bouts of intermittent exercise.

Studies in young adults show that a greater proportion of heat is gained shortly following the start of exercise and that temporal changes in whole body heat loss during intermittent exercise have a pronounced effect on body heat storage. The consequences of short-duration intermittent exercise on heat storage with aging are unclear. We compared evaporative heat loss (HE) and changes in body he...

Response of unacclimatized males to repeated weekly bouts of exercise in the heat.

The purpose of the present study was to determine if there is an acclimation effect when unacclimatized males exercise in the heat at weekly intervals. Five subjects performed four exercise bouts, each lasting 1 h at 55% VO2max. The first trial was in moderate conditions (mean(s.d.) temperature (Ta) = 22.0(0.8)degrees C; mean(s.d.) relative humidity (rh) = 67(6)%) and the subsequent three trial...

the respiratory exchange ratio is higher in older subjects, but is reduced by aerobic exercise training

effects of aerobic exercise and whole body vibration on glycaemia control in type 2 diabetic males

purpose aerobic exercise has been identified as the main treatment for type 2 diabetic patients. such an exercise, however, is usually repined by some of patients who suffer from lack of stamina. therefore, whole body vibration has recently been introduced as a passive intervention. the present study aimed at comparing how aerobic exercise and whole body vibration affect glycaemia control in ty...

Can intradermal administration of angiotensin II influence human heat loss responses during whole body heat stress?

It is unclear if angiotensin II, which can increase the production of reactive oxygen species (oxidative stress), modulates heat loss responses of cutaneous blood flow and sweating. We tested the hypothesis that angiotensin II-induced increases in oxidative stress impair cutaneous perfusion and sweating during rest and exercise in the heat. Eleven young (24 ± 4 yr) healthy adults performed two ...
