Abstract
The changes in esophageal and mean skin temperatures did not show a marked difference between active limb movement (ALM) and passive limb movement (PLM). Increase in heart rate was significantly greater during ALM than PLM at 30 and 60 rpm ( P < 0.05). Sweating rate on the chest and forearm were significantly greater during ALM than PLM at each pedalling frequency ( P < 0.05). The result suggests that the greater increase in sweating rate during ALM relative to PLM may in part be of a consequence of non-thermal factors.
