Lactate and perceptual values

	Pre-TT			TT
	Neutral	Cold	Cold+Hyper	Neutral	Cold	Cold+Hyper
Lactate, mmol/l	1.5 ± 0.5	1.7 ± 0.5	1.3 ± 0.4	9.1 ± 3.0*†	7.2 ± 2.4‡	6.0 ± 2.4
Rating of perceived exertion	6 ± 0	6 ± 0	6 ± 0	15 ± 1	15 ± 2	15 ± 2
Thermal sensation	3 ± 1*†	1 ± 0	1 ± 0	5 ± 1*†	3 ± 1	2 ± 1
Thermal comfort	1 ± 0*†	4 ± 1	4 ± 1	2 ± 1*†	3 ± 1	3 ± 1

Pretime trial (TT) values were taken immediately before the start of the TT. TT values represent mean values over the course of the TT (perceptual scales) and immediately upon TT completion (lactate).

^*Neutral significantly different from Cold;

^†Neutral significantly different from Cold+Hyper;

^‡Cold+Hyper significantly different from Cold.
