Temperature, Humidity and the Training Window Elite sports science is broadly in agreement on the conditions that support optimal performance: ambient temperatures in the range of 18 to 20 degrees Celsius for most training disciplines, with relative humidity between 40 and 60 percent. These are narrower parameters than most standard HVAC systems are designed to hold. Humidity control is particularly nuanced. Too low and the respiratory system is stressed, leading to a persist
