This study aims to explore how age impacts heat tolerance and acclimatization when working in hot conditions.
Examined male subjects across different age groups.
Measured physiological responses during heat exposure.
Analyzed acclimatization effects over a defined period.
Older individuals showed reduced heat tolerance compared to younger counterparts.
Acclimatization benefits were lesser in older groups, impacting performance.
Significant differences in temperature regulation were observed related to age.
