This study evaluated the influence of a neutral vs. a moderately warm environment on the diurnal variation in. muscular power. Twelve male subjects [27.0 (+/-4) years] performed two different jump tests [a squat jump (SJ) and a counter-movement jump (CMJ)] and a brief maximal sprint on cycle ergometer (CS) in four different conditions (morning/neutral, morning/moderately warm and humid, afternoon/neutral, and afternoon/moderately warm and humid). The morning experiments were conducted between 07:00 and 09:00 h, and the afternoon experiments were conducted between 17:00 and 19:00 h. The mean laboratory temperatures and humidity were 20 (+/-1)degreesC, 70 (+/-5)% and 29 (+/-1)degreesC, 57 (+/-4)% for the neutral and moderately warm and humid conditions, respectively. Rectal temperature and leg skin temperature were significantly dependent on both time-of-day and ambient temperature. An interaction effect (P < 0.05) was noted between time-of-day and ambient temperature for the power developed for the CMJ, the SJ, and half of a pedal revolution during the cycling sprint. In summary, (i) the same subjects were influenced by time-of-day differently, depending on the ambient temperature during testing; (ii) time-of-day affected muscular performance only in the neutral condition, (iii) the moderately warm and humid condition blunted the diurnal variation in muscular performance, and (iv) the effect of the ambient temperature was dependent on time-of-day.
