The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the efficiency of water biking training in hot (35°C) versus neutral (25°C) temperature water to elicite heat acclimation in healthy recreative athletes. The main questions it aims to answer are:~Does the water biking training protocol in hot versus neutral temperature water improve the time trial in an artificially hot and humid indoor environment?~Does the water biking training protocol in hot versus neutral temperature water improve the VO2 max performance and force/velocity profile in neutral indoor environment?~What are the main acclimation adaptations (central and cutaneous temperature), heart rate, cardiac function, sweating quality, sleep quality, haematologic profile.~Participants will have to do pre and post training tests in both normal environment (cardiorespiratory stress test, force/velocity profile test, echocardiography) and artificially hot and humid indoor environment (time trial). The training protocols consists in 10 sessions of 1 hour of water bike aerobic training (5 times a week for 2 weeks) at an intensity based on the heart rate corresponding to the 1st respiratory threshold, in hot (interventional group IG: 35°C) versus neutral (control group CG: 25°C) water.
