INDIVIDUALIZED HEAT ACCLIMATION TOOL AND METHOD

摘要

A system or a method for assisting an individual to acclimatize to hot environment prior to being exposed to the hot environment using a measured heart rate with or without a measured skin temperature and/or a measured body core temperature. A Physiological Strain Index (PSI) or adaptive PSI (aPSI) is calculated for the individual to provide a target for the individual's exertion level such that an area under the calculated PSI/aPSI curve is used to determine the amount of heat acclimatization that has occurred for that particular training session and/or prior training sessions.
