TL;DR: Short term isothermic methods are optimal for individuals aiming to achieve heat adaptation most economically, i.e. when integrating heat acclimation into a pre-competition taper, analogous to more efficient administration for maximising adaptation.

TL;DR: M Males and females responded to STHA; however, females required LTHA to establish thermoregulatory and cardiovascular stability and HA protocols should be designed to target sex differences in thermoreGulation for optimal adaptation.

TL;DR: This review provides a focused perspective of the relevant literature describing how practitioners can structure male and female athlete preparations for performance in hot, humid conditions by identifying two distinct heat alleviation themes that should be considered to form an individualized strategy to enhance thermoregulatory/performance physiology.

TL;DR: Data suggests eHsp72 concentration increases once systemic temperature and sympathetic activity exceeds a minimum endogenous criteria elicited during VHOT conditions and is likely to be modulated by large, rapid changes in core temperature.

TL;DR: HSP72 and HSP90α mRNA increased in response to each HA session, but did not change with CON, and O2 saturation higher at 65% V̇O2 peak following HA, but not CON, which induced greater rectal temperatures, sweat rate, and heart rates than CON during the training sessions.
