{"product_id":"maximising-performance-in-hot-environments","title":"Maximising Performance in Hot Environments","description":"Ensuring high levels of performance and safety in hot climates is a key consideration for sport scientists and coaches. Maximising Performance in Hot Environments is the first book with a project-based approach to focus solely on exercise in this common climactic condition, providing students and coaches with a clear and concise introduction to working with athletes in the heat. Rigorous in its physiological underpinnings, the book adopts a problem-based learning approach, encouraging students to engage with the science and apply it to practical, real-world scenarios.Posing questions such as \"how should athletes be monitored in high temperatures\", \"what are the ideal conditions for setting a world record in a 10,000m race\", and \"what special considerations should be made when working with masters athletes\", the book covers all key topics, including:\u003cul\u003e   The basics of human thermoregulation   The effect of high temperatures on performance   Heat acclimation and acclimatisation   Cooling   Hydration   Preventing heat-related illness and injury Offering pedagogical features throughout to further enhance student learning, this is a truly innovative and unique resource. It is crucial reading for any student taking classes in environmental physiology, important applied reading for any exercise physiology students, and a vital companion for any sport scientist or coach working with athletes in high temperatures.\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Taylor \u0026 Francis","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44559657074926,"sku":"9780815362722","price":63.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0630\/9612\/7726\/files\/9780815362722.jpg?v=1703698784","url":"https:\/\/bookland.com.au\/products\/maximising-performance-in-hot-environments","provider":"Book Land AU","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
