This laboratory-based study compared active, passive, and combined methods of half-time heat maintenance.DesignRandomised, counterbalanced, cross-overMethodsAfter a standardised warm-up (WU) and 15 min of rest, professional Rugby Union players (n = 20) completed a repeated sprint test (RSSA1). Throughout a simulated half-time (temperature: 20.5 &#xB1; 0.3 &#xB0;C; humidity: 53 &#xB1; 5%), players then rested (Control) or wore a survival jacket (Passive) for 15 min, or performed a 7 min rewarm-up after either 8 min of rest (Active), or 8 min of wearing a survival jacket (Combined).
