Pre-exercise muscle warming does not alter VO2 kinetics; leaves open its effects on other metabolic or performance parameters.
Does increased muscle temperature improve O2 uptake kinetics during exercise in men?
Elevated muscle temperature before exercise onset does not appreciably affect the fast exponential component of VO2 kinetics or contribute to the slow component during heavy exercise.
Koga et al. (1997) studied this question.
