Former pro triathlete and PhD candidate Antoine Jolicoeur-Desroches speaks with Andrew and Michael about training and racing in hot conditions and his two studies on popular devices: the Omius headband paper and the CORE Body Temperature sensor paper. We cover:
- advantages and limitations of the Omius headband and potential use cases
- combining pre-cooling and per-cooling strategies
- combining internal and external cooling strategies
- advantages and limitations of the CORE body temperature sensor and use cases
- influence of motivation on response to increased core temperature during exercise, especially in elite athletes.
