The study looked at how air temperature and air speed affect how our bodies respond during exercise in the summer. They tested different temperatures and wind speeds on six female college students doing physical activity for 40 minutes. They measured things like skin temperature, heart rate, and how much they sweat. The results showed that air speed does impact how our bodies react to exercise in hot weather.
