The relative age effect in German 11- to 18-year-old male and female swimmers
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Relatively older athletes have a greater probability of being selected and subsequently exposed to a higher level of coaching, training and other talent-promoting factors. Grouping by chronological age is, therefore, ... -
Race analysis in competitive swimming: A narrative review
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Researchers have quantified swimming races for several decades to provide objective information on race strategy and characteristics. The purpose of the present review was to summarize knowledge established in the literature ... -
‘Richness in ends, simpleness in means!’ on Arne Naess’s version of deep ecological friluftsliv and its implications for outdoor activities
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)The increasing global warming and the loss of biodiversity should concern us all. Some feel that outdoor activities, which take place in natural surroundings, should have a special obligation to change. In this article I ... -
Outsourcing swimming education—experiences and challenges
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)In Norway, swimming and lifesaving education (swimming education) is an obligatory part of physical education, with explicit learning aims after grade four. After recent reports of Norwegian pupils achieving low scores in ... -
World Health Organization 2020 guidelines on physical activity and sedentary behaviour
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Objectives: To describe new WHO 2020 guidelines on physical activity and sedentary behaviour. Methods: The guidelines were developed in accordance with WHO protocols. An expert Guideline Development Group reviewed ... -
2020 WHO guidelines on physical activity and sedentary behaviour for children and adolescents aged 5–17 years: Summary of the evidence
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Background: The World Health Organization (WHO) released in 2020 updated global guidelines on physical activity and sedentary behaviour for children, adolescents, adults, older adults and sub-populations such as pregnant ... -
Systematic review of the prospective association of daily step counts with risk of mortality, cardiovascular disease, and dysglycemia
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Background: Daily step counts is an intuitive metric that has demonstrated success in motivating physical activity in adults and may hold potential for future public health physical activity recommendations. This review ... -
Cardiorespiratory fitness on a treadmill in an adult cystic fibrosis population
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Objectives: (1) To describe the cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) in an adult cystic fibrosis population related to sex and age, (2) to evaluate the cause of low CRF and (3) to study the association between peak oxygen uptake ... -
Cardiorespiratory fitness and physical activity following lung transplantation: A national cohort study
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Background: Low cardiorespiratory fitness and inactivity are common after lung transplantation (LTx). The causes of exercise intolerance are incompletely understood. Objectives: The aim of this study was to objectively ... -
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), ... -
Low-carbohydrate high-fat diet and exercise: Effect of a 10-week intervention on body composition and CVD risk factors in overweight and obese women—a randomized controlled trial
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)We assessed the effect of weight-loss induced with a low-carbohydrate-high-fat diet with and without exercise, on body-composition, cardiorespiratory fitness and cardiovascular risk factors. A total of 57 overweight and ... -
New global guidelines on sedentary behaviour and health for adults: Broadening the behavioural targets
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Background: In 2018, the World Health Organisation (WHO) commenced a program of work to update the 2010 Global Recommendations on Physical Activity for Health, for the first-time providing population-based guidelines on ... -
Determinants of cardiorespiratory fitness in very long-term survivors of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation: A national cohort study
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Purpose: Survivors of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) are at risk for cardiopulmonary adverse events. Data on long-term effects on cardiorespiratory fitness are limited. To address the gap ... -
Exhaustive exercise and post-exercise protein plus carbohydrate supplementation affect plasma and urine concentrations of sulfur amino acids, the ratio of methionine to homocysteine and glutathione in elite male cyclists
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Plasma and tissue sulfur amino acid (SAA) availability are crucial for intracellular methylation reactions and cellular antioxidant defense, which are important processes during exercise and in recovery. In this randomized, ... -
