Description
Crews oft train on shift, but a hard gym bout may tax the body in the tasks that count. Philip Agostinelli and co-authors test that tax in a 2024 study with thirty two fit stand ins. Each did a task round in hot gear three ways: fresh, post weights, and post a bike bout.
The task, lifts and a sand bag haul in a hot room, took near the same time in all three. But heart rate and body heat ran high post bouts, more post bike than post weights. Skin heat told the same tale. The team reads the load as strain, not speed: fresh crews may do the same work with less wear. Shift heads can weigh that in drill plans.
