Brief Summary
There are no previous studies of the effects of a combination of whole-body immersions in hot and cold baths on adaptive responses and health-related markers. Thus, the primary aim of this project is to determine whether interventions consisting of whole body immersion in hot and cold baths over 16 days develop heat and/or cold adaptation by remodeling thermoregulatory, metabolic, cardiovascular and physiological responses, and the secondary aim is to determine if current cold-hot acclimation has any effects on physical and mental health-related markers.
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria: * young, healthy, non-obese males and females; * nonsmoker; * no needle phobia; * not taking medication and/or dietary supplements that may affect experimental variables. Exclusion Criteria: * neurological, cardiovascular, metabolic, and/or inflammatory diseases, or conditions that could be worsened by exposure to acute thermal stimuli and that could affect experimental variables; * involvement in temperature manipulation program for ≥ 3 months; * attendance at any excessive formal physical exercise or sports program.
