Changes in the physiological strain and graded exercise performance due to warming or cooling of the lower body in a temperate environment.

CONCLUSIONS: These results suggest that although the cardiovascular and thermoregulatory strain is higher under warming conditions than cooling conditions, the exercising muscle temperature does not affect the performance of a GXT lasting approximately 15 min in a temperate environment.
