Efficacy of Post Exercise Heat Stress Cooling Via Cyrogenx Body Cooling Device

The aim of this project is to test the rate of cooling following exercise in the heat utilising the CRYOGENX Cryosuit device i) against passive cooling, and ii) to quantify the rate of cooling and compare this rate with established cooling intervention thresholds i.e. -0.11 to 0.15°C.min-1. As this project is to determine the efficacy of the intervention in populations equivalent to sporting and military personnel, these aims will be tested in young (18-40 year old) healthy male and female participants whom participate in regular physical activity. As a commercially funded project, the experimental design implemented will closely replicate that of the independent investigation into the efficacy of the CAERvest® device.
