Table 1.
Mean core body temperatures as measured with the CORE sensor during Trials 1a (first column) and 1b (second column) for the entire period of exercise, the 5-min warm-up, and 20-min intervals of the steady-state (SS) exercise. In addition, the third and fifth columns document the mean bias and limits of agreement (LoA), respectively.
