Abstract The independent effects of different cooling practices, such as cold‐water immersion (CWI), on thermal and cardiovascular responses to sauna remain unclear. This study tested the hypothesis that thermal and cardiovascular responses to sauna are attenuated when CWI was included in a cooling break compared to cooling in air only.

Quantitative MRI changes in neck muscle size and composition following long‐duration spaceflight
Abstract Long‐duration spaceflight poses several challenges to human health, including muscle loss and fat deposition. To mitigate these effects, exercise countermeasures are prescribed. This study aimed to measure neck muscle size and composition changes with long‐duration spaceflight using quantitative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and examine ...

Far‐infrared sauna exposure at 65°C elevates core temperature
Abstract Far‐infrared (FIR) saunas are increasingly used as a passive heating and ‘wellness’ modality, yet their capacity to elevate core temperature remains unclear, particularly given prior work at lower temperatures (∼45°C) reports limited net heat storage.

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.

Mechanisms of haemoglobin mass expansion following heat stress
Abstract figure legend Theorised mechanisms of heat stress‐induced erythropoiesis which may facilitate the expansion of haemoglobin mass. A, acute: heat stress‐induced renal ischaemia. Redistribution of blood flow away from the kidneys to facilitate thermoregulation during heat stress could reduce renal oxygen delivery, subsequently lowering renal PO2${

Endocrine and androgenic response to altitude training in professional cyclists
Abstract figure legend Steroidal and endocrine variables are altered during altitude training. Abstract This study investigated endocrine and steroidal blood markers in 31 male elite cyclists monitored over 7 weeks, including a 3 week altitude training camp either at 2050 m (n = 19) or 3000 m (n = 12).
