TL;DR: The findings suggest specifying training duration and intensity during heat acclimation may be useful for specific post-acclimation performance and 30HI did provide some benefit to anaerobic performance including sprint PO and MVC.

TL;DR: The effectiveness and safety of many of these strategies applied and promoted is unknown as discussed by the authors, and their effectiveness and effectiveness in terms of safety and effectiveness is unknown, as well as their effectiveness.
Abstract: Delayed-onset muscle soreness, or 'DOMS', affects many people after exercise and can impair future performance. It usually peaks one to four days after exercise and several strategies are used to overcome it. The effectiveness and safety of many of these strategies applied and promoted is unknown.

TL;DR: This systematic review identifies studies in ballet and contemporary dance that have investigated the relationship between injuries and their annual timing (AT) (for example, across a performance season, a semester, or a training or working year) and highlights findings in sports medicine of a relationship between change in training load and injury.
Abstract: Sports medicine research suggests that overuse injuries may result from inappropriate training load1-2. In dance research, overuse is estimated to be a factor in 75% of allinjuries3. Training loads for dancers typically involve high repetition of extreme movement. Volume of training ranges from six to eight hours per day during rehearsalperiods and up to ten hours during performance seasons4. Holiday periods, however, can last up to three months5-6. This systematic review identifies studies in ballet andcontemporary dance that have investigated the relationship between injuries and their annual timing (AT) (for example, across a performance season, a semester, or a training or working year). Six electronic databases were searched up to June 3, 2016: PubMed, Embase, CINAHL, SPORTdiscus, Scopus, and the Performing Arts Database. Medical subject headings used in PubMed were “wounds and injuries”,“musculoskeleletal diseases” and “dancing”. Keywords used were injur*, sprain, strain*, “muscul* dis*”, danc* and ballet. Only original data, and cohort studies in balletand/or contemporary dance that report a relationship of injury to AT were included. 1196 abstracts were searched. Reference lists of identified studies were also searched. Two reviewers independently assessed each identified study for risk of bias using the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale (NOS) for Observational Studies7. An analysis of the identified studies was conducted on the relationship of injury and AT across potentially inflective changes in load, such as returning to dance after holiday periods, or transitioning from rehearsal periods to performance seasons, when working hours and cardiovascular demands may increase8-9. In the discussion of training load, findings in sports medicine of a relationship between change in training load and injury, and delay in injury presentation after acute spikes in training load10-11 are highlighted as potentially relevant to dance, particularly as a guide to management oftraining loads. A useful metric, for example, may be to quantify training load as the product of the duration and intensity of training1, which, to the authors’ knowledge hasnot been investigated in relation to injury in dance.
