As spring turns into summer, and as temperatures rise, athletes of all levels face similar heat induced challenges whilst working out.
Keeping performance levels up becomes progressively more demanding; increased sweat production and elevated core body temperatures are direct responses of the body to physical activity in hot weather conditions, which in cases decrease the ability to sustain intensity levels, and thus decrease athletic performance.
The adidas Climachill apparel range, which welcomes its new black training t-shirt, has been key in advancing active cooling technology within the industry, due to its uniquely engineered design profile. The garment is built in with 3D aluminum-cooling spheres which provide an instant cooling sensation on contact. A micro fiber fabric transports excess moisture away from your skin. Flat yarn maximizes surface contact with skin, transferring more heat away from the body.
Gareth Bale has commented on the new range by stating that it helps him rejuvenate and keep his body temperature at an optimum level, thus making him perform on top of his game. Have a look at the video below to get a glimpse of the brand new shirt in action!
