Purpose Heat adaptation (HA) is a popular strategy to combat the negative effects of thermal
stress. The HA literature has expanded since a 2016 meta-analysis, and we provide an …

Inducing a heat-acclimated phenotype via repeated heat stress improves exercise capacity
and reduces athletes̓ risk of hyperthermia and heat illness. Given the increased number of …

A reduced mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) copy number, the ratio of mitochondrial DNA to
genomic DNA (mtDNA: gDNA), has been linked with dysfunctional mitochondria. Exercise …

Recent aerobic exercise training in the heat has reported blunted aerobic power
improvements and reduced mitochondrial-related gene expression in men. It is unclear if …

This dissertation addresses the following questions: 1) the impact of three environmental
conditions (altitude, heat, and woodsmoke exposure) on the blood oxidative stress response …

Endurance athletes have traditionally been advised to consume high carbohydrate intake
before, during and after exercise to support high training loads and facilitate recovery …

Environmental temperature can impact exercise-induced blood oxidative stress; however,
the effects of heat acclimation on this response have not been fully elucidated. The purpose …
