FSHS Seminar Series Exercise in hot environments: athlete preparation, performance, and the implications of inflammation Joshua Guy University of St Mark & St John/James Cook University Tuesday 26 May 2015, 10am Venue: Lecture Theatre - University of St Mark & St John, Plymouth Summary Bio Extreme environmental conditions present athletes with diverse physiological, immune system and performance challenges; however, not all sporting events are limited by thermoregulatory parameters. The purpose of this presentation is to examine how and where performance is compromised and to consider novel strategies to mitigate the effects of hot weather conditions. Joshua Guy completed a Bachelor of Sport and Exercise Science (Hons 1) at James Cook University (Cairns, Australia) in 2012 and is currently studying in Plymouth for the final year of his PhD under the supervision of Prof Andrew Edwards of the University St Mark & St John and Prof David Pyne of the Australian Institute of Sport.
