Critical power (CP) delineates the heavy and severe exercise intensity domains, and sustained work rates above CP result in an inexorable progression of oxygen uptake to a maximal value and, subsequently, the limit of exercise tolerance. The finite work capacity above CP, W′, is defined by the curvature constant of the power-duration relationship. Heavy or severe exercise in a hot environment generates additional challenges related to the rise in body core temperature (Tc) that may impact CP and W′. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of elevated Tcon CP and W′. CP and W′ were estimated by end-test power (EP; mean of final 30 s) and work above end-test power (WEP), respectively, from 3-min “all-out” tests performed on a cycle ergometer. Volunteers (n= 8, 4 female) performed the 3-min tests during a familiarization visit and two experimental visits (thermoneutral vs. hot, randomized crossover design). Before experimental 3-min tests, the subjects were immersed in water (thermoneutral: 36°C for 30 min; hot: 40.5°C until Tcwas ≥38.5°C). Mean Tcwas significantly greater in the hot condition than in the thermoneutral condition (38.5 ± 0.0°C vs. 37.4 ± 0.2°C; means ± SD,P< 0.01). All 3-min tests were performed in an environmental chamber [thermoneutral: 18°C, 45% relative humidity (RH); hot: 38 °C, 40% RH]. EP was similar between thermoneutral (239 ± 57 W) and hot (234 ± 66 W;P= 0.55) conditions. WEP was similar between thermoneutral (10.9 ± 3.0 kJ) and hot conditions (9.3 ± 3.6;P= 0.19). These results suggest that elevated Tchas no significant impact on EP or WEP.NEW & NOTEWORTHYThe parameters of the power-duration relationship (critical power and W′) estimated by a 3-min all-out test were not altered by elevated body core temperature as compared with a thermoneutral condition.
