However, impairments were only observed during the first 20 min of exercise.
Athletic tape has been commonly reported to lose much of its structural support after 20 min of exercise.
Rate of perceived exertion over the final 5 min of exercise was higher in HEAT (9.5) than CON (5).
Exercise sessions were divided into a 10-min warm-up on land and 50 min of exercise in water.
Sessions were divided into a 15-min baseline measurement (S1), 30 min of exercise and a 15-min effect measurement (S2).
Blood samples were collected at 0 min, 30 min, 60 min and 90 min of exercise to measure glucose, lactate, insulin, and cortisol levels.
Each set comprised 2 min of exercise, alternating every 30 s between seated and standing postures, using different slopes and intensity levels on a motorised treadmill.
Four of 8 participants could not complete 30 min of exercise in HEAT, resulting in a 14% decline in total external work.
The effects of 30 min of exercise on postprandial lipaemia in the overweight and obese are unknown as previous studies have only investigated bouts of at least 60 min in lean, healthy individuals.
Following an overnight fast and in a randomised, double-blind, counterbalanced design, twelve endurance trained male cyclists performed 90 min of exercise at 70% VO2 max 1 h after ingesting 6 mg kg−1BM of caffeine (CAF) or placebo (PLA).
A repeated measures design was used where overweight, sedentary individuals (N = 65) completed, in counterbalanced order, two conditions: 3 min of exercise (Active) and 3 min of sedentary activity (Sedentary) during one session.
