Efficacy of Cold Water Immersion Prior to Endurance Cycling or Running to Increase Performance: A Critically Appraised Topic

Connor A. Burton and Christine A. Lauber

Clinical Scenario Intense aerobic exercise can produce metabolic heat at a rate of 20 kilocalories per minute in elite athletes. Heat production, therefore, can equate to a core temperature (T c ) increase of 1°C every 5–7 min. 1 The rise in T c can challenge thermoregulation of the body and

Contribution of American Football Uniforms to the Development of Exercise-Induced Hyperthermia: A Critically Appraised Topic

Grace Katt and Kevin C. Miller

Exertional heat stroke (EHS) is the most severe form of exertional heat illness (EHI) and is diagnosed when an athlete’s body’s core temperature exceeds 40.5 °C (105 °F) and they display central nervous system dysfunction. 1 EHS is one of the leading causes of sudden death in athletes. 2 In
