A 45 min bout of hot‐water immersion induces transient plasma volume contraction without a detectable increase in circulating erythropoietin

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Heat acclimation is increasingly used to induce haematological adaptations and enhance endurance performance. Although repeated hot‐water immersion (HWI) has been shown to increase haemoglobin mass, the acute physiological responses that might underpin these longer‐term adaptations remain poorly understood.
