摘要:The article presents the infrared (IR) thermovision diagnostic method as one of the tools for monitoring changes in an athletes' loading conditions during their training. The advantage of the method lies in its quantitative approach, fast analysis and the comparative studies involving the application of this method. All of the basic mechanisms of heat transfer to the skin's surface are presented, enabling a comprehension of the experimental results. In this article the results are presented as a temperature field distribution on a selected segment of skin and they change with time, depending on the integral parameters of an athlete's loading. Also examined were the characteristic changes in the temperature field which depend on an athlete's physical loading. In addition to a quality evaluation of the topological structures of the temperature field, time-related changes in locally averaged temperatures in a selected window were evaluated, as well as the pertinent time-dependent local temperature variations in individual training loading regimes. The results of the study indicate the rationality of applying the IR method for monitoring various types of loading on an athlete's muscle segments. This method may also be used as a comparative tool for establishing the efficiency of different means and methods in the training process.
