Critical Internal Temperature Presentation This is a keynote lecture on the Critical Internal Temperature hypothesis given at the Canadian Society for Exercise Physiology (CSEP) 2002 annual meeting. It goes through the initial studies finding this phenomenon, verification studies, progress to date on identifying mechanisms, and implications and future research in this field.
This is a general presentation to our graduate seminar in October 2004 outlining the major themes and work going on at the EEL.
