Comparison of muscle mitochondrial capacity between young and elderly subjects using Near-Infrared Spectroscopy
Spirka, Andrea (Master thesis, 2022)INTRODUCTION: Aging brings many changes in the body and a drop in skeletal muscle oxidative capacity is among them. Skeletal muscle oxidative capacity or mitochondrial capacity can be investigated non-invasively with the ... -
Effect of working position and cold environment on muscle activation level and fatigue in the upper limb during manual work tasks
Renberg, Julie; Wiggen, Øystein; Tvetene, Per Øyvind Stranna; Færevik, Hilde; Van Beekvelt, Mireille; Roeleveld, Karin (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Several occupational groups are exposed to periods of low ambient temperatures while performing manual work tasks outdoors. Work tasks typically include heavy lifting, tool handling, and overhead work. This study evaluated ... -

Energetic cost of double poling and diagonal stride in classical cross-country skiing at different speed-slope combinations: A literature review
Kristensen, Henrik Berg; Glomnes, Kornelius Linge; Welde, Ottar Brohaug (Bachelor thesis, 2023)Formålet med denne litteraturstudien er å: 1) skaffe en oversikt over hvilke under-teknikker i klassisk langrenn (staking, diagonalgang) som gir mest fordelaktig “energetic cost” (EC), dvs. lave energikostnader og høy ... -
Strength training improves double-poling performance after prolonged submaximal exercise in cross-country skiers
Øfsteng, Sjur Johansen; Sandbakk, Øyvind; Van Beekvelt, Mireille; Hammarström, Daniel; Kristoffersen, Raymond; Hansen, Joar; Paulsen, Gøran; Rønnestad, Bent (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of adding strength training with or without vibration to cross-country (XC) skiers' endurance training on double-poling (DP) performance, physiological, and kinematic ... -
The effect of cadence on shank muscle oxygen consumption and deoxygenation in relation to joint specific power and cycling kinematics
Skovereng, Knut; Ettema, Gertjan; Van Beekvelt, Mireille (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)The purpose of the present study was to investigate the effect of cadence on joint specific power and cycling kinematics in the ankle joint in addition to muscle oxygenation and muscle VO2 in the gastrocnemius and tibialis ...
