In 2005, the American Physiological Society (APS) initiated the Living History of Physiology Archival Program to recognize senior members who have made significant contributions during their career to the advancement of the discipline and the profession of physiology. Subsequently, the leadership of the APS Section of Environmental and Exercise Physiology selected Prof. Elsworth R. Buskirk of Pennsylvania State University to be profiled in Advances in Physiology Education.

TLDR
A brief discussion of the recent history of body composition is presented, followed by consideration of techniques likely to supply the “criterion” information required to validate simpler methods with widespread utility.
HEAT ACCLIMATIZATION PATTERNS IN OBESE AND LEAN INDIVIDUALS * †

Exercise in controlled trials of the prevention of coronary heart disease.
TLDR
A collaborative investigation of the feasibility of using physical activity in trials of coronary heart disease conducted at three universities found that smokers volunteered less often than non­ smokers and men engaged in recreational physical activity volunteered more frequently than the sedentary.
Performance capacity and effects of caloric restriction with hard physical work on young men.
The effect of caloric deficits was studied on performance capacity under the following conditions: a) 3100 Cal/day for the entire experiment (control group of 6 men); b) 580 Cal/day for 12 days (6 ...
Heat tolerance of exercising lean and obese prepubertal boys.
Seven lean and five obese boys, aged 9–12 yr, exercised in four environments: 21.1, 26.7, 29.4, and 32.2 degrees C Teff. Subjects walked on a treadmill at 4.8 km/h, 5% grade for three 20-min exerci...
Response of Negro and white males to cold.
TLDR
During digital cooling white subjects had higher finger temperatures and the ‘hunting’ reaction was more pronounced than for Negroes, and the white subjects required a shorter period for the onset of the first ‘rewarming’ of the fingers.
Sports science and body composition analysis: emphasis on cell and muscle mass.
TLDR
In order to extend the knowledge of body composition and to quantitatively ascertain the mass of skeletal muscle, some of the procedures for calculating cell and muscle mass are reviewed including total body potassium, total body nitrogen, creatinine excretion, and 3-methylhistidine excretion.
Work performance after dehydration: effects of physical conditioning and heat acclimatization. 1958.
TLDR
Physical conditioning was associated with enhanced work performance during dehydration, whereas acclimatization to heat did not appreciably supplement this effect.
Maximal performance at altitude and on return from altitude in conditioned runners.
TLDR
Performance times were similar on return from altitude in track events to what they were before going to altitude, and the runners could compete on equal terms in soccer with native residents at 4,000 m after 4-5 weeks at altitude.
