    This study used infrared thermography to monitor skin temperature changes during exercise. Dynamic exercise causes significant, measurable shifts in surface temperature, especially in the exercising limb.

    Area of Science:

    • Physiology
    • Exercise Science
    • Biomedical Engineering

    Background:

    • Peripheral vascular responses significantly influence skin temperature during physical activity.
    • Understanding dynamic thermal changes is crucial for assessing physiological responses to exercise.
    • Infrared thermography offers a non-invasive method to visualize these transient thermal states.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To investigate dynamic changes in surface skin temperatures (Ts) during and after various exercise types.
    • To correlate peripheral vascular shifts with observed thermographic temperature variations.
    • To evaluate the efficacy of infrared thermography in capturing transient thermal phenomena during exercise.

    Main Methods:

    • Utilized an AGA 680 thermovision system with a Bolex 16-mm camera for synchronous infrared (IR) movie capture at 16 frame/s.

  • Recorded surface temperatures during hand gripping (20%, 50%, 80% maximum effort), one-legged ergometric exercise, and running.
  • Compared thermographic data with thermistor measurements to validate findings.

    • Main Results:

    • Hand gripping led to incremental increases in surface skin temperatures (Ts), peaking at a 1.7°C rise.
    • Dynamic one-legged exercise showed higher Ts in the exercising leg compared to the resting leg.
    • Surface temperatures decreased in both limbs post-exercise.

    Conclusions:

    • Infrared thermography effectively captures dynamic surface temperature changes associated with peripheral vascular shifts during exercise.
    • The study supports the advantages of thermography for analyzing transient thermal states induced by dynamic physical activity.
    • Observed temperature variations provide insights into the physiological responses to different exercise modalities.
