Heat Training Project

[Steve Trangmar]

Hi Everyone,

This is a re-advert for those interested in gaining some information on how their body responds to cycling in the heat.

You will get a free VO2 max test and have your sweat rate calculated so that you can estimate the volume of fluid to take in during similar conditions. This is a great opportunity to get some experience of training in hot environments, without leaving the country!

If you are;
• a healthy male cyclist who trains and competes regularly
• aged 18-35 years
• available for dates in May and June

For more information, please contact Steve on;

Many Thanks

Dear all,

After a successful first run of this project we are now advertising for more athletes to get involved.

Once again, you will receive a free VO2max/HR thresholds test, training experience in a hot environment, your individual sweat rate and additional financial compensation for your time.

Requirements include;
• Males
• Aged 18-35 years
• Good training history of cycling/triathlon
• Be available from the 3rd of September, with visit 4 occurring on one of the 25th, 26th, 27th or 28th of September.

Although these are lab based sessions, it is a good opportunity to get some free physiological data (VO2/HR, lactate, power outputs etc) and some decent training time in the heat. This project is suited to those who competitive, fully committed and willing to push themselves.

For general inquiries or if you are interested in taking part, please contact Steve on the above email address.

N.B. Apologies for the requirements but we unfortunately have to be strict with our inclusion criteria. Sorry.
