TL;DR: Sauna bathing stimulated the immune system to a higher degree in the group of athletes compared to the untrained subjects, and an increased number of white blood cells, lymphocyte, neutrophil and basophil counts was reported in the white blood cell profile.
Changes in the lipid profile of blood serumin women taking sauna baths of various duration

TL;DR: After 2 weeks of repeated sauna session some changes in total cholesterol and concentration of LDLC were observed, while concentration of HDLC increased after 7th sauna bath in group I, and further research on the influence of sauna on fat metabolism is needed.

Disturbances in pro-oxidant-antioxidant balance after passive body overheating and after exercise in elevated ambient temperatures in athletes and untrained men.
Wanda Pilch,Zbigniew Szygula,Anna Tyka,Tomasz Pałka,Aleksander Tyka,Tomasz Cisoń,Paweł Pilch,Aneta Teległów +7 more
TL;DR: Sauna induced a shift in pro-oxidant-antioxidant balance towards oxidation, which was observed less intensively in the athletes compared to the untrained men, which leads to the conclusion that physical exercise increases tolerance to elevated ambient temperature and oxidative stress.

TL;DR: In both groups, no significant changes in endurance performance were noted after the training session – peak oxygen uptake did not significantly vary after IHT, as the IHT seems to be effective in improving anaerobic performance among boxers.

The influence of ambient temperature on power at anaerobic threshold determined based on blood lactate concentration and myoelectric signals.
TL;DR: IEMGAT can be used as a practical and reliable, non-invasive method for assessment of the anaerobic threshold during exercise testing at 23 degrees C, 31 degrees C and 37 degrees C to indicate that the mechanical power and physiological parameters in males at the lactate (LAAT) and integrated electromyographicAnaerobic thresholds can be compared.
