Sweating: its rapid response to muscular work

W VAN BEAUMONT et al. Science. .

Abstract

Marked increases in sweating rate occurred within 1.5 seconds after the initiation of muscular activity in a warm room. This increase did not seem dependent upon thermal stimuli, but was related to the work rate, and the ambient temperature, or the sweating rate during the pre-exercise perhiod.
