Skin Calorimetry of the Vastus Lateralis During Incremental Exercise: Thermal Analysis and Modeling
In this study, we examined the thermal response of the vastus lateralis muscle using a skin calorimeter designed for localized measurements. Five healthy young male participants (20–23 years old) performed an incremental test on a cycle ergometer at 20 W·min−1 until exhaustion. The calorimeter’s thermostat was maintain...
