Clinical Scenario Exercise in the heat can lead to performance decrements and increase the risk of heat illness. 1 , 2 Heat acclimation refers to the systematic and gradual increase in exercise in a controlled, laboratory environment with hot environmental conditions and is an impactful strategy

dehydration. 2 , 3 Because of this, methods of improving endurance performance in the heat have been developed. Heat acclimation (artificial environment) or heat acclimatization (natural environment) occurs when an individual trains in hot and typically humid environmental conditions for ∼60–90 minutes each

Short-term heat acclimation (STHA) involves repeated exposure to heat stress over the course of ∼7 days in an artificial (acclimation) or natural (acclimatization) environment. 1 STHA has received increasing interest for elite athletic preparation because it efficiently and effectively promotes

Heat acclimation (HA) has the capability to improve performance in the heat, potentially countering heat-induced performance decrements. 1 In general, HA is accomplished via regular exercise at submaximal intensities in environments of sufficient temperature. 2 , 3 In addition, due to the

Prior to exercise-heat stress, athletes and military personnel are advised to complete a period of heat acclimation to alleviate heat strain and improve exercise capacity in the heat. 1 The adaptive responses that improve exercise capacity in the heat include an earlier onset and an increase in

importance as typically those undertaking heat acclimation (HA) tend to be preparing for prolonged events with high sweat rates. In addition to hydration, HA is also an impactful strategy to mitigate negative effects of exercise in the heat ( Alhadad et al., 2019 ). HA refers to the process of multiple

Exercise performance in the heat is often impaired due to the greater physiological strain experienced, 1 – 3 but heat acclimation/acclimatization (HA) can reduce this impairment by inducing a number of beneficial physiological (eg, reduction in cardiovascular strain, lower core body temperature

Despite promising results surrounding the transfer of heat adaptations to performance, 5 not all studies have reported improvements in temperate
