What is it about?
This paper address the skin temperature responses to exercise and the changes in muscle activation. Muscle contraction generates heat, but does it reflect changes in skin temperature? Could skin temperature show us something related to muscle activation?

Why is it important?
Thermography became popular in the last years, but we still have few studies on its applicability to sport. We tried to go further on this and provide the literature with some insights.
