Description
Understanding and managing performance in hot environments is crucial for athletes and coaches. This book provides a comprehensive introduction to exercise physiology in hot climates, using a project-based approach to help students apply theoretical knowledge to real-world scenarios.
The book covers key topics such as human thermoregulation, the effects of high temperatures on performance, heat acclimation and acclimatisation, cooling, hydration, and preventing heat-related illness and injury. With its problem-based learning approach, this resource encourages students to engage with the science and develop practical skills.
Ideal for students studying environmental physiology or exercise physiology, as well as sport scientists and coaches working with athletes in hot conditions, this book offers a unique and innovative resource for anyone looking to improve performance and safety in extreme temperatures.
