How to Use a Core Body Temperature Sensor for Heat Training
Athletes should be aware that it from my point of view I don't think it's like the hotter the better effect. It's many athletes thinks that okay if he's team is good then I would be as hot as possible to get the rectal temperature as high as possible. So in addition that could be potential dangerous so so avoid being too too over heated.
Bent Rønnestad, PhD, is a professor at the Inland Norway University of Applied Sciences. Bent has been heavily influential in the sports science world in areas such as concurrent training, high intensity interval training, periodisation, and heat training.
IN THIS EPISODE YOU'LL LEARN ABOUT:
-Is time near VO2max a good indicator for the effectiveness of an interval workout?
-Different types of interval sessions: short intervals, traditional long intervals, fast start long intervals, and variable long intervals
-How do the above types of sessions compare for acute responses (e.g. time at VO2max) and for training adaptations and performance improvements?
-Periodisation of interval training
-An overview of heat training and adaptations in both hot and temperate conditions
-Specific protocols used to increase hemoglobin mass, markers of performance and performance, and maintenance protocols
-For whom is heat training a recommended?
-How does heat training compare to altitude?
