Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

The acute and lasting responses to exercise and changes in environmental conditions, such as temperature and altitude, provide valuable insights that further our understanding of physiological adaption. Owing to recent theoretical and technological advances, exercise and environmental physiology have received wide attention from athletes, coaches, practitioners, as well as medical professionals. Innovative training modalities, conditioning, and warm-up or recovery strategies not only improve athletic performance but also prevent the occurrence of injuries. Furthermore, effective and safe exercise training programs are applied to individuals with various chronic diseases or risks. This Special Issue of the International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health aims to collect a broad and multidisciplinary discussion on up-to-date advances that include exercise physiology, environmental physiology, athletic performance, sports medicine, etc. A special emphasis will be placed on articles that apply new and innovative efforts in these areas. We invite all authors to submit original research and/or specific reviews that improve our understanding of “Advances in Exercise and Environmental Physiology”. All manuscripts will be peer-reviewed by experts in the field and held to the highest level of academic and scientific integrity.

Manuscript Submission Information

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2500 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.

Background: the purpose of this study was to examine acute physiological responses to and the performance effects of two sprint training protocols in normobaric hypoxic conditions. Methods: Healthy competitive female (n = 2) and male (n = 5) kayakers (19 ± 2.1 years) performed four sprint training sessions on a kayak ergometer over a period of two weeks. Participants performed five sets of 12 × 5 s sprints or 3 × 20 s sprints in both normobaric normoxic (NOR, FiO2 = 20.9%) or normobaric hypoxic (HYP, FiO2 = 13.6%) conditions. The peak power output (PPO), rate of perceived exertion (RPE), and heart rate (HR) of each participant were monitored continuously. Their blood lactate concentrations ([BLa+]), in addition to their blood gas (mixed-venous partial pressure (p) of carbon dioxide (pCO2), O2 (pO2), and oxygen saturations (sO2)) were collected before and after exercise. Results: A significantly greater RPE, HR, and [BLa+] response and a significant decrease in pCO2, pO2, and sO2 were observed in HYP conditions versus NOR ones, independent of the type of training session. The PPO of participants did not differ between sessions. Their RPE in HYP12 × 5 was greater compared to all other sessions. Conclusions: The HYP conditions elicited significantly greater physiological strain compared to NOR conditions and this was similar in both training sessions. Our results suggest that either sprint training protocol in HYP conditions may induce more positive training adaptations compared to sprint training in NOR conditions. Full article
