Effect of exercise training on fat loss—Energetic perspectives and the role of improved adipose tissue function and body fat distribution
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)In obesity, excessive abdominal fat, especially the accumulation of visceral adipose tissue (VAT), increases the risk of metabolic disorders, such as type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), cardiovascular disease, and non-alcoholic ... -
Effect of exercises with weight vests and a patient education programme for women with osteopenia and a healed wrist fracture: a randomized, controlled trial of the OsteoACTIVE programme.
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015-11-14)Background: Exercise programmes have shown to be important for the prevention of fractures in patients with established osteoporosis. However, few studies have evaluated the effect of such programmes for women with low ... -
The effect of experience in movement coordination with music on polyrhythmic production: Comparison between artistic swimmers and water polo players during eggbeater kick performance
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)The aim of this study was to compare artistic swimmers (ASs) and water polo players (WPs) in their polyrhythmic production ability and entrainment between arm and leg motion frequency. Nine ASs and nine WPs participated ... -

(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Objectives: Aim was to study the effect of monoski foot adjustment on kinematic and kinetic skiing parameters expressing sit skier’s technique. Design: Independent variable was skier position with respect to bindings, ... -
Effect of four additional physical education lessons on body composition in children aged 8-13 years: A prospective study during two school years
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2013-10-17)Background: Strategies for combating increasing childhood obesity is called for. School settings have been pointed out as potentially effective settings for prevention. The objective of this paper was to evaluate the effect ... -
Effect of heavy strength training on thigh muscle cross-sectional area, performance determinants, and performance in well-trained cyclists
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2009-12)The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of heavy strength training on thigh muscle cross-sectional area (CSA), determinants of cycling performance, and cycling performance in well-trained cyclists. Twenty ... -
Effect of high-intensity interval training on cardiorespiratory fitness, physical activity and body composition in people with schizophrenia: a randomized controlled trial
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Background Exercise may improve cardiorespiratory fitness in people with schizophrenia, however, possible condition-specific cardiorespiratory disadvantages, a scarcity of methodologically sound studies, and conflicting ... -
Effect of high-intensity training on bone health and body composition in lung transplant recipients: A secondary analysis of a randomized controlled trial
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Background: Loss of bone mineral and skeletal muscle mass is common after lung transplantation (LTx), and physical activity (PA) may prevent further deterioration. We aimed to assess the effects of 20-week high-intensity ... -
Effect of high-intensity training on peak oxygen uptake and muscular strength after lung transplantation: A randomized controlled trial
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)BACKGROUND: Peak oxygen uptake (VO2peak) remains low after lung transplantation (LTx). We evaluated the effect of high-intensity interval training (HIIT) on VO2peak, muscular strength, health-related quality of life (HRQOL), ... -
The effect of low dose marine protein hydrolysates on short-term recovery after high intensity performance cycling: A double-blinded crossover study
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Background: Knowledge of the effect of marine protein hydrolysate (MPH) supplementation to promote recovery after high intensity performance training is scarce. The aim of this study was to examine the effect of MPH ... -
Effect of low pass filtering on joint moments from inverse dynamics: implications for injury prevention
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2012-02)Analyses of joint moments are important in the study of human motion, and are crucial for our understanding of e.g. how and why ACL injuries occur. Such analyses may be affected by artifacts due to inconsistencies in the ... -
Effect of lower body negative pressure on phase I cardiovascular responses at exercise onset
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)We hypothesised that vagal withdrawal and increased venous return interact in determining the rapid cardiac output (CO) response (phase I) at exercise onset. We used lower body negative pressure (LBNP) to increase blood ... -
Effect of pedometer-based walking interventions on long-term health outcomes: Prospective 4-year follow-up of two randomised controlled trials using routine primary care data
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Background: Data are lacking from physical activity (PA) trials with long-term follow-up of both objectively measured PA levels and robust health outcomes. Two primary care 12-week pedometer-based walking interventions in ... -
Effect of pelvic floor muscle training during pregnancy and after childbirth on prevention and treatment of urinary incontinence: A systematic review
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2013-01-30)Background Urinary incontinence (UI) is a common condition in women causing reduced quality of life and withdrawal from fitness and exercise activities. Pregnancy and childbirth are established risk factors. Current ... -
Effect of range of motion in heavy load squatting on muscle and tendon adaptations
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2013-04-20)Manipulating joint range of motion during squat training may have differential effects on adaptations to strength training with implications for sports and rehabilitation. Consequently, the purpose of this study was to ... -
