Correlates of accelerometer-assessed physical activity in pregnancy?: The 2015 Pelotas (Brazil) Birth Cohort Study
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Objective methods to measure physical activity (PA) have become available and widely used given the high degree of precision to evaluate PA. However, few studies have used accelerometers to measure PA during pregnancy, ... -
Daily physical activity related to aerobic fitness and body fat in an urban sample of children
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2008-02-03)This study evaluates associations between objectively measured daily physical activity vs aerobic fitness and body fat in children aged 8–11 years. A cross-sectional study of 225 children aged 7.9–11.1 years was performed. ... -
Does exercise intensity matter for fatigue during (neo-)adjuvant cancer treatment?: The phys-can randomized clinical trial
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Exercise during cancer treatment improves cancer-related fatigue (CRF), but the importance of exercise intensity for CRF is unclear. We compared the effects of high- vs low-to-moderate-intensity exercise with or without ... -
Early life risk factors for childhood obesity - Does physical activity modify the associations?: The MoBa cohort study
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Objectives: High maternal pre‐pregnancy body mass index (BMI), high birth weight, and rapid infant weight gain are associated with increased risk of childhood obesity. We examined whether moderate‐to‐vigorous physical ... -
Effectiveness of individualized training based on force: Velocity profiling on physical function in older men
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)The study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of an individualized power training program based on force–velocity (FV) profiling on physical function, muscle morphology, and neuromuscular adaptations in older men. ... -
Effects of 2-year dietary and physical activity intervention on cognition in children: A nonrandomized controlled trial
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Background and Objective: We investigated the effects of a combined dietary and PA intervention on cognition in children and whether changes in diet quality, PA, sedentary behavior (SB), and sedentary time (ST) are associated ... -
Effects of specific collagen peptide supplementation combined with resistance training on Achilles tendon properties
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of specific collagen peptides (SCP) combined with resistance training (RT) on changes in tendinous and muscular properties. In a randomized, placebo-controlled study, ... -
Ethics of technologically constructed hypoxic environments in sport
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2008-07-08)With the use of technologically constructed hypoxic environments (TCHE) in soccer as our case, we propose four check points from which to evaluate new performance-enhancing technologies in sport. These are (I) Is the ... -
Exercise performance increase in smokeless tobacco‐user athletes after overnight nicotine abstinence
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)The use of nicotine administered through smokeless tobacco (snus) has increased among athletes. The purpose of this study was to investigate the ergogenic effects of snus on aerobic performance during exercise until ... -
Field based lower limb strength tests provide insight into sprint and change of direction ability in academy footballers
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Conducting field-based strength assessments is embedded within football academy development processes. Yet, there is a limited understanding of how hip and groin strength assessments relate to vital game-based tasks such ... -
Frequent blood flow restricted training not to failure and to failure induces similar gains in myonuclei and muscle mass
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)The purpose of the present study was to compare the effects of short-term high-frequency failure vs non-failure blood flow–restricted resistance exercise (BFRRE) on changes in satellite cells (SCs), myonuclei, muscle size, ... -
Head impact exposure in youth football: Are current interventions hitting the target?
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Restrictions on heading in youth football have been implemented in some countries to limit head impact exposure. However, current interventions remain poorly guided by evidence. Our objective was to quantify heading exposure ... -
High jump demands in professional volleyball – large variability exists between players and player positions
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Purpose: Training volume has been associated with jumper's knee in volleyball players, but jump variability among professionals has not been investigated and individual jump demands are unknown. The purpose of this study ... -
High level rhythmic gymnasts and urinary incontinence: Prevalence, risk factors, and influence on performance
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Urinary incontinence (UI) is common among exercising women, but no studies have been found in rhythmic gymnasts. The aims of the present study were to investigate the prevalence and risk factors for UI in rhythmic gymnasts ... -
High-speed running during match-play before and after return from hamstring injury in professional footballers
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Hamstring injuries constitute the single largest cause of lost playing time in professional football. While restoring high-speed running ability is paramount for rehabilitation from these injuries, little evidence exists ... -
How to translate and locally adapt a PROM: Assessment of cross‐cultural differential item functioning
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Translating patient‐reported outcome measures (PROMs) can alter the meaning of items and undermine the PROM's psychometric properties (quantified as cross‐cultural differential item functioning [DIF]). The aim of this paper ... -
Impact of baseline serum ferritin and supplemental iron on altitude-induced hemoglobin mass response in elite athletes
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)The present study explored the impact of pre-altitude serum (s)-ferritin and iron supplementation on changes in hemoglobin mass (ΔHbmass) following altitude training. Measures of Hbmass and s-ferritin from 107 altitude ... -
Impact of data averaging strategies on V̇O2max assessment: Mathematical modeling and reliability
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Background: No consensus exists on how to average data to optimize VO2max assessment. Although the VO2max value is reduced with larger averaging blocks, no mathematical procedure is available to account for the effect of ... -
