Why Does Heat Stress Reduce Exercise Performance? • Circulatory Strain • High Skin Blood Flow, Peripheral Pooling • Stroke Volume, Cardiac Output, Blood Pressure • Central Nervous System(“Critical Core Temperature”) • Brain EEG & Motor EMG Activity, Voluntary Force Activation • Serotonin (5-HT) Accumulation (Plasma Prolactin) • Metabolic • Skeletal Muscle Blood Flow • Substrate Utilization / Metabolite Accumulation
