Key result
Forearm blood flow during leg exercise was well accounted for by a linear combination of esophageal and mean skin temperatures, independent of exercise intensity.

Temperature effects on limb flow merit attention during exercise; extends thermoregulatory models but leaves open clinical translation.
How do internal and skin temperatures during leg exercise affect forearm blood flow?
Forearm blood flow during exercise is primarily determined by internal and skin temperatures rather than exercise intensity per se.
Wenger et al. (1975) studied this question. Leg exercise on a bicycle ergometer was evaluated on Forearm blood flow. Forearm blood flow during leg exercise was well accounted for by a linear combination of esophageal and mean skin temperatures, independent of exercise intensity.
