Brief Summary:
Human performance is compromised at altitude due to a lower partial pressure of oxygen and subsequent reductions in the convective transport of oxygen to tissue. Long-term acclimation to attitude incurs physiological adaptations that result in a near return to sea-level performance; however, the time required (\~2 weeks) for such adaptations is often logistically challenging for athletes, military personnel or other individuals who reside at sea level. Recent research suggests that physiological acclimation to heat stress (i.e., heat acclimation) and altitude (i.e., hypoxia) share similar cellular adaptations, namely an up-regulation of Hypoxia-inducible factor 1 (HIF-1) and various heat shock proteins. Therefore, it is hypothesized that heat acclimation may provide physiological protection from reduced oxygen transport to the tissue and enhance performance at altitude. This cross-tolerance model is supported by traditional heat acclimation protocols (i.e., submaximal exercise in hot ambient temperature); however, it has not been tested with passive exposure to heat stress through post-exercise hot water immersion.
