Beyond life-skills: Talented athletes, existential learning and (un)learning the life of an athlete
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Following developments in educational discourse more broadly, learning discourses in youth sport have been shaped by outcome-based and instrumental goals of developing useful life-skills for ‘successful’ lives. There is, ... -
The bidirectional associations between leisure time physical activity change and body mass index gain. The Tromsø Study 1974–2016
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Objectives To examine whether leisure time physical activity changes predict subsequent body mass index (BMI) changes, and conversely, whether BMI changes predict subsequent leisure time physical activity changes. Methods: ... -
Biomechanical and neuromuscular performance requirements of horizontal deceleration: A review with implications for random intermittent multi-directional sports
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Rapid horizontal accelerations and decelerations are crucial events enabling the changes of velocity and direction integral to sports involving random intermittent multi-directional movements. However, relative to horizontal ... -
Biomechanical Comparison of Screw Fixation Versus a Cortical Button and Self-tensioning Suture for the Latarjet Procedure
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Background: Metal screws are traditionally used to fix the coracoid process to the glenoid. Despite stable fixation, metal screws have been associated with hardware complications. Therefore, some studies have advocated for ... -
Blood volume expansion does not explain the increase in peak oxygen uptake induced by 10 weeks of endurance training
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Purpose: The endurance training (ET)-induced increases in peak oxygen uptake (V˙O2peak) and cardiac output (Q˙peak) during upright cycling are reversed to pre-ET levels after removing the training-induced increase in blood ... -
Body composition and mortality from middle to old age: a prospective cohort study from the UK Biobank
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Background: How the association between adiposity and the risk of death changes with age, and which is the optimal level of adiposity to reduce mortality in older ages, is still not completely understood. We aimed to ... -
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 Mass Index, quality of life and activity limitation trajectories over 2 years in patients with knee or hip osteoarthritis: A dual trajectory approach based on 4265 patients included in the AktivA quality register
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Background: Recent studies claim that weight-neutral approaches emphasizing physical activity might be as effective as weight-loss-centered approaches for improving pain and physical function in patients with knee and hip ... -
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 ... -
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, ... -
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 ... -
Bubbles & Squat – did Dionysus just sneak into the fitness centre?
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)A Danish fitness chain recently introduced a new concept called Bubbles & Squat. Here, fitness training is combined with free champagne and music. In this paper, we examine this new way of bringing parties, alcohol and ... -
Caffeine Increases Strength and Power Performance in Resistance-trained Females During Early Follicular Phase
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)The effects of 4 mg·kg−1caffeine ingestion on strength and power were investigated for the first time, in resistance‐trained females during the early follicular phase utilizing a randomized, double‐blind, placebo‐controlled, ... -
CAM-type femoroacetabular impingement in male elite junior cross-country skiers and non-athlete controls: A cross-sectional MRI study
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)OBJECTIVES: Cross-country (CC) skiing consists of two main techniques: classic and skating. Hip motion during the skating technique is similar to that in ice skating and is considered a risk factor for femoroacetabular ... -
Can maximal voluntary pelvic floor muscle contraction reduce vaginal resting pressure and resting EMG activity?
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Introduction and hypothesis: The purpose of the present study was to assess whether attempts at a maximal voluntary pelvic floor muscle (PFM) contraction can reduce vaginal resting pressure (VRP) and surface EMG activity ... -
Can you breathe yourself to a better pelvic floor?: A systematic review
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Introduction: Some authors suggest that breathing exercises should be recommended instead of or in combination with pelvic floor muscle training (PFMT) to prevent and treat urinary incontinence (UI) and pelvic organ prolapse ... -
