Temperate performance and metabolic adaptations following endurance training performed under environmental heat stress
Endurance athletes are frequently exposed to environmental heat stress during training. We investigated whether exposure to 33°C during training would improve endurance performance in temperate conditions and stimulate mitochondrial adaptations. Seventeen endurance‐trained males were randomly assign...

description | Endurance athletes are frequently exposed to environmental heat stress during training. We investigated whether exposure to 33°C during training would improve endurance performance in temperate conditions and stimulate mitochondrial adaptations. Seventeen endurance‐trained males were randomly assigned to perform a 3‐week training intervention in 18°C (TEMP) or 33°C (HEAT). An incremental test and 30‐min time‐trial preceded by 2‐h low‐intensity cycling were performed in 18°C pre‐ and post‐intervention, along with a resting vastus lateralis microbiopsy. Training was matched for relative cardiovascular demand using heart rates measured at the first and second ventilatory thresholds, along with a weekly “best‐effort” interval session. Perceived training load was similar between‐groups, despite lower power outputs during training in HEAT versus TEMP (p < .05). Time‐trial performance improved to a greater extent in HEAT than TEMP (30 ± 13 vs. 16 ± 5 W, N = 7 vs. N = 6, p = .04), and citrate synthase activity increased in HEAT (fold‐change, 1.25 ± 0.25, p = .03, N = 9) but not TEMP (1.10 ± 0.22, p = .22, N = 7). Training‐induced changes in time‐trial performance and citrate synthase activity were related (r = .51, p = .04). A group × time interaction for peak fat oxidation was observed (Δ 0.05 ± 0.14 vs. −0.09 ± 0.12 g·min(−1) in TEMP and HEAT, N = 9 vs. N = 8, p = .05). Our data suggest exposure to moderate environmental heat stress during endurance training may be useful for inducing adaptations relevant to performance in temperate conditions. |
