Conclusions
Two differences were noticed between thermal images taken before and after ~2 minutes of stair cardio:
- 1. Overall body temperature increased. This is noted by the increase in green coloring throughout the bulk of the body. This is consistent with the observation that my body temperature felt warmer after my cardio workout along with increased respirations and heart rate.
- 2. Decreased temperature was noticed at extremities and head of body. This is noted by the decreased red coloring around the head and neck. This would be consistent with the method of cooling used by the human body: sweat. I observed that I felt chills in my extremities, head, and neck when I entered the cold building covered in sweat. In general, this conclusion relates to a functional ability to cool my body after exercise.
