    Effects of exercise-heat acclimation on fluid, electrolyte, and endocrine responses during tilt and +Gz acceleration in women and men (1985)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2011-08-19
    Description: Two aspects of prolonged endurance training were investigated: (1) the effects of exercise-heat acclimation (on a cycle ergometer at 40 C, 42 rh) on orthostatic tolerance (70 deg head-up tilt) and on a +Gz (head-to-foot) acceleration tolerance of male and female subjects; and (2) comparison of their fluid-electrolyte shifts and hormonal (plasma epinephdrine, norepinephrine, renin, and vasopressin) responses during tilting and centrifugation. The adaptive responses during the 12 d, 2-h acclimation did not alter acceleration tolerance of either men or women, or the women's tilt tolerance, but did increase men's tilt tolerance from 30.4 min before to 58.3 min after acclimation. The patterns of fluid, electrolyte, and protein shifts at tolerance in acceleration and tilting tests were virtually the same in men and women. On the other hand, the hormonal plasma epinephrine, norepinephrine, renin, and vasopressin resonses displayed different shift patterns during acceleration and tilting. It is concluded that the responses to tilting cannot be used to predict responses to acceleration. Future experiments for relating the orthostatic and the acceleration tolerances, and the practical questions of the training regimens for future astronauts are discussed.

    Effect of physical training in cool and hot environments on +Gz acceleration tolerance in women (1982)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2011-08-18
    Description: Acceleration tolerance, plasma volume, and maximal oxygen uptake were measured in 15 healthy women before and after submaximal isotonic exercise training periods in cool and hot environments. The women were divided on the basis of age, maximal oxygen uptake, and +Gz tolerance into three groups: a group that exercised in heat (40.6 C), a group that exercised at a lower temperature (18.7 C), and a sedentary control group that functioned in the cool environment. There was no significant change in the +Gz tolerance in any group after training, and terminal heart rates were similar within each group. It is concluded that induction of moderate acclimation responses without increases in sweat rate or resting plasma volume has no influence on +Gz acceleration tolerance in women.

    Deconditioning-induced exercise responses as influenced by heat acclimation (1979)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2011-08-17
    Description: A study to determine the effect of heat acclimation and physical training in temperate conditions on changes in exercise tolerance following water-immersion deconditioning is presented. Five young men were tested on a bicycle ergometer before and after heat acclimation and after water immersion. The subjects and the experimental procedure, heat acclimation and exercise training, water immersion, and exercise tolerance are discussed. Heat acclimation resulted in the usual decreases in exercise heart rate and rectal temperature and an increase in sweat rate. Water immersion resulted in substantial diuresis despite water consumed. The results show that heat acclimation provides an effective method of preventing the adverse effects of water-immersion deconditioning on exercise tolerance.

    Sweating responses during heat acclimation and moderate conditioning (1979)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2011-08-17
    Description: Experiments were conducted on ten young male subjects to determine sweating onset, distribution, and patterns as well as the relationships of these responses to body temperature during heat acclimation and moderate conditioning performed in temperate (24 C) conditions. The subjects are randomly assigned to two groups of five subjects each. The experimental period consisted of eight successive days of either graded exercise to exhaustion on a bicycle ergometer in heat (acclimation group) or in a temperate environment (control group). Major conclusions are that (1) acclimation and conditioning result in relatively more sweat rate on the limbs than on the torso, but that these changes are less related to body temperature than torso sweat rate; and (2) sweating sensitivity increases during acclimation and conditioning, but its contribution to heat acclimation is minor.

    Exercise training hypotension - Implications for plasma volume, renin, and vasopressin (1981)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2011-08-18
    Description: The relation of changes in plasma volume, plasma renin activity and arginine vasopressin to changes in resting blood pressure during exercise training is investigated. Resting supine, sitting, and standing systolic and fifth-phase diastolic blood pressures were measured in ten men before and after an eight-day training period on a cycle ergometer in either a hot (39.8 C) or cool (23.8 C) environment, and compared with plasma volume, renin and vasopressin levels, heart rates, maximal oxygen uptakes, rectal temperatures and sweat rates. Following acclimatization, resting supine and sitting diastolic pressures are observed to decrease by 6 and 9 mm Hg, respectively, while no significant changes are found in the diastolic pressures of the control group or the systolic pressures of either group. Resting plasma volume is found to increase by 12.2% in the controls and by 17.6% after acclimatization following the exercise training. Results suggest that the resting hypotension produced is not attributable to changes in resting plasma volume, renin or vasopressin, although heat acclimatization, which leads to large decreases in plasma volume and increases in vasopressin and renin activity, may be useful in the treatment of hypertension.

    Heat Acclimation and Water-Immersion Deconditioning: Responses to Exercise (1977)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2011-08-23
    Description: Simulated subgravity conditions, such as bed rest and water immersion, cause a decrease in a acceleration tolerance (3, 4), tilt tolerance (3, 9, 10), work capacity (5, 7), and plasma volume (1, 8-10). Moderate exercise training performed during bed rest (4) and prior to water immersion (5) provides some protection against the adverse effects of deconditioning, but the relationship between exercise and changes due to deconditioning remains unclear. Heat acclimation increases plasma and interstitial volumes, total body water, stroke volume (11), and tilt tolerance (6) and may, therefore, be a more efficient method of ameliorating deconditioning than physical training alone. The present study was undertaken to determine the effects of heat acclimation and moderate physical training, performed in cool conditions, on water-immersion deconditioning.
