Does wearing a surgical or cloth face mask impede exercise performance? - via healthing_ca healthing health healthylifestyle
Canadian Society for Exercise Physiology,Wearing a mask throughout the pandemic has been an important requirement to slow down transmission of the virus. But what about athletes, or people trying to exercise? Masking can cause dyspnea — shortness of breath or breathlessness — and a resistance in air flow. That, in turn, causes issues with rebreathing exhaled gases, muscle fatigue, and the regulation of body temperature.
Face temperatures were greater, however, while wearing any face mask compared to no mask; cloth masks were hotter with or without a fan, and surgical masks were hotter than no mask but only when the fan was on. Wearing a cloth mask increased swings of mouth pressure but so, too, would using a mouthpiece used in a standard cardiopulmonary exercise test, so the researchers did not find this significant.
