Thermal environments for aged adults

In this study, we will understand how healthy bodies respond to exercise in warm environments. We are recruiting older adults to participate in light cycling for in warm room.

You’ll have a few pieces of non invasive equipment to record some outcome measures we’re interested in, and we will ask participants to complete four bouts of exercise on different days. In recognition of your time, we will provide you with Coles/Myer gift cards upon completion of the trial.
