Thermal Physiology + The Environment
If you cannot effectively thermoregulate and your body core temperature rises beyond the heat stroke threshold, a cascade of damage begins to affect your very cells, including those in your brain, heart, kidney, and liver.
Strategic success requires boots on the ground- or, in the Arctic, boots on the ice. This article explores the challenges and opportunities people, and especially military personnel, face while operating in extreme cold conditions.
Do you prefer the hot desert or humid topics? Dry and humid heat stress the body through different physiological pathways, yet both can produce body core temperature rise. Research highlights how the combination of sweat evaporation, environmental humidity, and metabolic heat determine whether we maintain safe temperatures or enter dangerous thermal territory.
Temperature can be more personal than we realize. From sun-baked parking lots to shady parks, in this post we explore the science of how microclimates shape the heat burden we experience.
In this article we break down the concept of “power” in the context of our metabolism and thermal regulation to explain how Qore Performance products provide a superhuman thermoregulatory advantage.
