(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Objective:Knowledge about physical fitness in women with bulimia nervosa (BN) or binge-eatingdisorder (BED) is sparse. Previous studies have measured physical activity largely through self-report, and physical fitness ... -
Body fat measurement in adolescent girls with type 1 diabetes: a comparison of skinfold equations against dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016-04-06)Aim: Skinfold measurement is an inexpensive and widely used technique for assessing the percentage of body fat (%BF). This study assessed the accuracy of prediction equations for %BF based on skinfold measurements compared ... -
Body fat related to daily physical activity and insulin concentrations in non-diabetic children
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2008-06-28)This study explored the associations between body fat versus daily physical activity and insulin concentrations in non-diabetic young children in a cross-sectional study of 172 children (93 boys and 79 girls) aged 8–11 ... -
Body figure idealization and body appearance pressure in fitness instructors
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Purpose: The fitness centers are settings for health promotion, yet may serve as a stage for counterproductive figure idealization. Such idealization may take the form of a drive toward the thin, the muscular, or lean body ... -
Body roll amplitude and timing in backstroke swimming and their differences from front crawl at the same swimming intensities
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)The current study investigated body roll amplitude and timing of its peak in backstroke and compared them with front crawl swimming. Nineteen anatomical landmarks were digitised using 80 swimming trial videos (ten ... -
Boken som mangler, ord som går på tomgang og sykt flinke jenter: kunnskap og helse
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)Sykt flinke jenter – hvordan ble det sånn? Og blir de flinke jentene mindre «(p)syke» hvis de får mer kunnskap om psykisk helse i skolen? Første del undersøker hvordan koblingen mellom flinke jenter og psykiske problemer ... -
Bone health in elite Norwegian endurance cyclists and runners: a cross-sectional study
(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: ... -
Bone health in Norwegian female elite runners: A cross-sectional, controlled study
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Objective: The primary objective was to compare bone mineral density (BMD) in Norwegian female elite long-distance runners with a control group of inactive females. Secondary objectives were to identify cases of low BMD, ... -
Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells in a hyaluronan scaffold for treatment of an osteochondral defect in a rabbit model
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2008-07-01)The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficiency of using mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) in a hyaluronan scaffold for repair of an osteochondral defect in rabbit knee. Bone marrow was harvested from the posterior ... -
Both the "what" and "why" of youth sports participation matter: a conditional process analysis
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017-04-26)This study builds on previous research combining achievement goal orientation from Achievement Goal Theory and motivational regulation from Self-Determination Theory. The aim was to assess the combination of the “what” and ... -
Branched-chain amino acid metabolism, insulin sensitivity and liver fat response to exercise training in sedentary dysglycaemic and normoglycaemic men
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Aims/hypothesis: Obesity and insulin resistance may be associated with elevated plasma concentration of branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs) and impaired BCAA metabolism. However, it is unknown whether the insulin-sensitising ... -
Branched-chain amino acids supplementation does not accelerate recovery after a change of direction sprinting exercise protocol
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)BCAAs supplementation has been widely used for post-exercise recovery. However, no evidence is currently available to answer the question of whether BCAAs supplementation can attenuate muscle damage and ameliorate recovery ... -
