How Lotto Dstny use heat training to optimise performance 

Haha Victor always all in.. the others wrapped up.. he looks like he’s on a mission to the Arctic circle 😂

great videos

This is interesting, the idea of getting a jump start on the heat acclimation makes sense (of course, you guys wouldn't be doing it). It takes me a solid month of true summer weather until I feel like I'm not soaked in sweat after 10 minutes. It's like your body figures it out and gets better at cooling.

Wow thanks for sharing this Andy+PH! Such valuable interviews

It has some useful and funny effects in daily life though. Cycling in southern spain during the summer with temperature 38 degrees feels okay after a while. At home we have to aligh on AC usage at night because 27-28 felt absolutely normal for me but extremely hot for my wife. I can feel that I perform better when acclimatised to heat but can't objectively measure it as an amateur. Just feel heat resistance/lowered heart rate in normal temperature.

I recently started training in a pool that is much hotter than I’m used to. The first few sessions i got so dehydrated I would get a headache, and I’ve never drank so much in my life whilst swimming. But good to know I’m getting some kind of heat adaptation benefits from it! They also have a sauna which i use after every session.

Very interesting - shows what a science pro training can be

I did this last week, I piled on my winter kit, no fan. It was very hot 😂

By seing them ride, they don’t seem to be at the right core temperature. I have the study protocol that I could share : would have been good to link it in the description..

So, if you do this at an altitude of 2000m plus, do you get more adaptations???

Hard Core...temperature.

Ultra runners have been doing this since the 80’s running in sauna and have clothes dryer vents pointing towards treadmill. Nothing new

Heat training blows. It does help significantly, but I hate it so much. It’s also frustrating because you can’t put out your normal power.

Heat.heat.and more heat..absolutely love the burn👍👊
