EP#24: Do cold hands make for faster athletes? Tessa Maroni PhDc Science from the Source

    • Science

In this episode, I speak with Tessa Maroni who is a PhD candidate in the School of Human Sciences at the University of Western Australia. Tessa discusses the impact of the heat on athletic performance and whether hand cooling could be a viable method to help athletes perform in hot conditions. She then outlines her article: Hand and torso pre-cooling does not enhance subsequent high-intensity cycling or cognitive performance in heat, which was published in 2019 in the journal Temperature.
