      Seifert, Ludovic; Conceição, Ana; Gonjo, Tomohiro; Stastny, Jan; Olstad, Bjørn Harald (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)
      In breaststroke races, the dolphin kick could finish before, at the same time, or during the arm pull-out, but it is unclear how swimmers perform this technique. The aim of this study was to investigate whether swimmers ...
    • Distribution of lower extremity work during clean variations performed with different effort 

      Dæhlin, Torstein Eriksen; Krosshaug, Tron; Chiu, Loren Z.F. (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)
      The purpose of this research was to investigate how lower extremity work was distributed during the pull of cleans performed lifting the barbell to the minimum height required to receive it in a full squat (minimal height ...
    • Muscle coordination during breaststroke swimming: comparison between elite swimmers and beginners 

      Vaz, João R.; Olstad, Bjørn Harald; Cabri, Jan; Kjendlie, Per-Ludvik; Pezarat-Correia, Pedro; Hug, Francois (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016-02)

    • To walk or to run - a question of movement attractor stability 

      Raffalt, Peter Christian; Kent, Jenny A.; Wurdeman, Shane R.; Stergiou, Nicholas (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)
      During locomotion, humans change gait mode between walking and running as locomotion speed is either increased or decreased. Dynamical systems theory predicts that the self-organization of coordinated motor behaviors ...
