Acute and long-term weight loss and weight gain in elite athletes: influences on body composition and performance
Garthe, Ina (Doctoral thesis, 2011)Many athletes attempt to change their weight in order to enhance their competitive performance level. Weight loss is generally motivated by a desire to optimise performance by improving power to weight ratio, making ... -
Bone health in elite Norwegian endurance cyclists and runners: a cross-sectional study
Andersen, Oddbjørn Klomsten; Clarsen, Benjamin Matthew; Garthe, Ina; Mørland, Morten; Stensrud, Trine (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Background: Athletes who compete in non-weight-bearing activities such as swimming and cycling are at risk of developing low bone mineral density (BMD). Athletes in long-distance running are at risk of low BMD. Objective: ... -
Dietary Adjustments to Altitude Training in Elite Endurance Athletes; Impact of a Randomized Clinical Trial With Antioxidant-Rich Foods
Koivisto-Mørk, Anu; Paur, Ingvild; Paulsen, Gøran; Garthe, Ina; Raastad, Truls; Bastani, Nasser Ezzatkhah; Blomhoff, Rune; Bøhn, Siv Kjølsrud (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Background: Altitude training stresses several physiological and metabolic processes and alters the dietary needs of the athletes. International Olympic Committee (IOC)'s Nutrition Expert Group suggests that athletes should ... -
Effects of antioxidant-rich foods on altitude-induced oxidative stress and inflammation in elite endurance athletes: A randomized controlled trial
Koivisto, Anu; Olsen, Thomas; Paur, Ingvild; Paulsen, Gøran; Bastani, Nasser Ezzatkhah; Garthe, Ina; Raastad, Truls; Matthews, Jason; Blomhoff, Rune; Bøhn, Siv Kjølsrud (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Background: Various altitude training regimes, systematically used to improve oxygen carrying capacity and sports performance, have been associated with increased oxidative stress and inflammation. We investigated whether ... -
Native whey induces similar post exercise muscle anabolic responses as regular whey, despite greater leucinemia, in elderly individuals
Hamarsland, Håvard; Aas, Sigve Nyvik; Nordengen, Anne Lene; Holte, Kari; Garthe, Ina; Paulsen, Gøran; Cotter, Matthew; Børsheim, Elisabet; Benestad, Haakon Breien; Raastad, Truls (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Objective: Elderly muscle seems less sensitive to the anabolic stimulus of a meal. Changes in blood concentrations of leucine are suggested as one important trigger of the anabolic response in muscle. The aim of this study ... -
Native whey protein with high levels of leucine results in similar post-exercise muscular anabolic responses as regular whey protein: A randomized controlled trial
Hamarsland, Håvard; Nordengen, Anne Lene; Aas, Sigve Nyvik; Holte, Kristin Tosterud; Garthe, Ina; Paulsen, Gøran; Cotter, Matthew; Børsheim, Elisabet; Benestad, Haakon Breien; Raastad, Truls (Academic article, 2017-11-21)Protein ingestion produces a strong anabolic stimulus that elevates muscle protein synthesis [34]. The ability of a serving of protein to stimulate muscle protein synthesis (MPS) is dependent on absorption and blood kinetics ...
