This study investigated whether home-based bathing intervention (HBBI) improve muscle strength gain and protect cardiovascular function by short-term resistance training (RT). Thirty-one healthy young men measured the maximum voluntary isometric contraction (MVC) of knee extensor, electrically evoked knee extension torque, and mean arterial pressure (MAP). Then, participants were divided into three groups with matching MVC: shower without bathing (control, n = 10), thermoneutral bathing (36°C-bathing, n = 10), and hot bathing (40°C-bathing, n = 11), and conducted 2 weeks of HBBI.
