The study investigated how effective Short (5 Days) and Medium Term (10 Days) Heat Acclimation are in creating positive adaptations for performance in heat. The study used Runners preparing for the Marathon Des Sables and found an additional benefit was provided by medium term acclimation in comparison to short term acclimation.
