Thermal Stress of Athlete
Conditions
Interventions
Acute exercise in hot environment:Participants will execute sport-specific exercise tasks in three distinct environmental settings: Hot-Humid (e.g. T =35°C, RH =70%), Hot-Dry (e.g. T =35°C, RH = 40%),
Heat Acclimation:Participants will undergo 2 to 4 weeks of training, tailored to their specific athletic disciplines, within an artificial environmental chamber mimicking high-temperature and high-hum
Cooling intervention:The exercise protocols are customized to the specific demands of the athletic disciplines. Under real outdoor heat or simulated climatic conditions, pre-cooling and per-cooling st
Hydration Intervention:The participants will follow a pre-hydration scheme divided into high-sodium (based on pilot study results), low-sodium (10 mmol/L), and pure water groups. Standardized breakfas
Transcranial Electrical Stimulation Intervention:Based on the functional mapping results from fNIRS or EEG, tDCS intervention will be administered to brain areas including the dlPFC or M1. A randomize
