The influence of hyperhydration on thermoregulatory function was tested in 8 male volunteers. The subjects performed cycle exercise in the upright position at 52% Vo2max for 45 min in a thermoneutral (Ta = 23 degrees C) environment. The day after the control exercise the subjects were hyperhydrated with tap water (35 ml X kg-1 of [...]

This study examined the effects of hyperhydration on thermoregulatory responses during compensable exercise-heat stress. The general approach was to determine whether 1-h preexercise hyperhydration [29. 1 ml/kg lean body mass; with or without glycerol (1.2 g/kg lean body mass)] would improve sweating responses and reduce core temperature during exercise. During these experiments, the evaporative heat [...]
The effect of different heat loads on vigilance and complex cognitive tasks involved in a mission of different intensities were examined. Nine healthy volunteers were randomly exposed for 2 h to three climatic conditions: comfort (21 degrees C ET), moderate heat load (30 degrees C ET) and severe heat load (35 degrees C ET). The [...]
This study examined the influence of water ingestion on endurance capacity during submaximal treadmill running. Four men and four women with a mean (+/-S.E.) age of 21.4 +/- 0.7 years, height of 169 +/- 2 cm, body mass of 63.1 +/- 2.9 kg and VO2 max of 51.1 +/- 1.8 ml kg-1 min-1, performed two [...]
