The research was conducted at Kesuma Sari Junior High School, Sesetan, Denpasar, Bali. The measured data were age, height, body weight, ambient temperature, dress comfort questionnaire, skin temperature response and pulse recovery response. The findings of descriptive analysis showed significant differences (p <0.05) on the variables of comfort and surface temperature of the skin, no significant difference (p> 0.05) on the variable of pulse recovery. The mean value of the difference of comfort before and after exercising in the Control Group decreased by (-4.17 ± 4.668) and in the Treatment Group increased by (2.50 ± 3.477). The mean value of the skin temperature difference before and after exercising in the Control Group increased the temperature by (0.57 ° C ± 0.64) and in the Treatment Group there was a temperature increase of (0.01 ° C ± 0.65). The Mean decrease in the pulse recovery in the Control (107.03 ± 15.18) and the Treatment Groups (106.93 ± 16.37) was not much different so there is no influence between the two.
