Ten recreationally active\n                    men performed the experimental trials that consisted of 40\u2009min intermittent\n                    cycling, followed by a 15-min HT, and then an intermittent cycling sprint test\n                    in a cold (5\u00b0C and 50% relative humidity). During HT, the participants underwent\n                    two different interventions: seated rest (CON) or hand and forearm heating\n                    (HEAT). The intermittent cycling sprint test comprised 10 sets of 5\u2009s of maximal\n                    pedaling and 25\u2009s of recovery. In addition, the participants performed maximal\n                    voluntary contraction (MVC) in knee extension before and after HT. Although the\n                    peak power output in the intermittent cycling sprint test did not significantly\n                    differ between trials (p&gt;0.05), the rectal temperature (Tre)\n                    following HT in HEAT was significantly higher than in CON (p=0.026). In\n                    addition, the MVC force after HT was significantly higher in HEAT than in CON\n                    (p&lt;0.001). This suggests hot-water immersion of hand and forearm during HT\n                    improves knee extensor muscle strength and attenuates the Tre\n                    decrease in a cold
