Do the cooling jackets give an athlete a performance advantage?
Many researchers have documented the use of cooling jackets in conserving fluid, which would have otherwise been lost in sweat. Increasing the temperature gradient between the athletes core temperature and their skin temperature has the effect of reducing sweating – this then delays the onset of dehydration and performance decrement. Of course, the better the cooling product retains the cold, greater the benefit for the athlete. With Arctic Heat’s scientifically proven properties athletes can maximize the cooling advantages.
