Acclimatization is a biological process to create more red blood cells and increase the flow of oxygen in the blood. This makes it possible to normalize the heart rate and regulate hyperventilation to a certain extent.
Why is Acclimatisation important in sport?
Heat acclimatization (or acclimation) confers biological adaptations that reduce physiological strain (e.g., heart rate and body temperature), improve comfort, improve exercise capacity and reduce the risks of serious heat illness during exposure to heat stress.
What is Acclimatisation give two examples of it we experience in our daily life?
Sheep grow very thick wool in cold, damp climates. Fish are able to adjust only gradually to changes in water temperature and quality. Tropical fish sold at pet stores are often kept in acclimatization bags until this process is complete.
