Temperature and neuromuscular function.
Sebastien Racinais,J. Oksa +1 more
TL;DR: It is shown that temperature also affects the neural drive transmission to the muscle and the excitation‐contraction coupling and performance impairments in both cold and hot environment are related to a modification in neural drive due to protective adaptations, central and peripheral failures.

Abstract: This review focuses on the effects of different environmental temperatures on the neuromuscular system. During short duration exercise, performance improves from 2% to 5% with a 1 °C increase in muscle temperature. However, if central temperature increases (i.e., hyperthermia), this positive relation ceases and performance becomes impaired. Performance impairments in both cold and hot environment are related to a modification in neural drive due to protective adaptations, central and peripheral failures. This review highlights, to some extent, the different effects of hot and cold environments on the supraspinal, spinal and peripheral components of the neural drive involved in the up- and down-regulation of neuromuscular function and shows that temperature also affects the neural drive transmission to the muscle and the excitation-contraction coupling.

Performance in the Heat—Physiological Factors of Importance for Hyperthermia-Induced Fatigue
TL;DR: An integrative model is proposed that may help understanding the interplay among factors, but also acknowledging that the influence from a given factor depends on the exercise hyperthermia situation.

Acute and Residual Soccer Match-Related Fatigue: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis
João R. Silva,Michael Clemens Rumpf,Michael Clemens Rumpf,Maxime Hertzog,Carlo Castagna,Abdulaziz Farooq,Olivier Girard,Olivier Girard,Karim Hader,Karim Hader +9 more
TL;DR: A systematic review of match simulation protocols and actual match-play shows that a period of 72 h post-match play is not long enough to completely restore homeostatic balance and the extent of the recovery period post-soccer game cannot consist of a ‘one size fits all approach’.

TL;DR: Following the recent examples of the 2008 Olympics and the 2014 FIFA World Cup, sport governing bodies should consider allowing additional recovery periods between and during events, for hydration and body cooling opportunities, when competitions are held in the heat.

Influence of body temperature on the development of fatigue during prolonged exercise in the heat
José González-Alonso,Christina Teller,Signe Lindgaard Andersen,Frank Jensen,Tino Hoffmann Hyldig,Bodil Nielsen +5 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that high internal body temperature per se causes fatigue in trained subjects during prolonged exercise in uncompensable hot environments and time to exhaustion in hot environments is inversely related to the initial temperature and directly related toThe rate of heat storage.

TL;DR: It is important to know whether the characteristic relation between action potential and resting potential holds over a wide range of temperature, and the use of an internal recording electrode facilitates this study.

Supraspinal factors in human muscle fatigue: evidence for suboptimal output from the motor cortex.
TL;DR: It is argued that inadequate neural drive effectively ‘upstream’ of the motor cortex must be one site involved in the genesis of central fatigue as well as fatigue‐induced changes in EMG responses to magnetic cortical stimulation recovered rapidly despite maintained ischaemia.

TL;DR: The ability to generate force during a prolonged MVC is attenuated with hyperthermia, and the impaired performance is associated with a reduction in the voluntary activation percentage.
