Maximal strength training-induced increase in efferent neural drive is not reflected in relative protein expression of SERCA
Tøien, Tiril; Haglo, Håvard Pedersen; Nyberg, Stian Kwak; Rao, Shalini Vasudev; Stunes, Astrid Kamilla; Mosti, Mats Peder; Wang, Eivind (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Introduction Maximal strength training (MST), performed with heavy loads (~ 90% of one repetition maximum; 1RM) and few repetitions, yields large improvements in efferent neural drive, skeletal muscle force production, and ... -
Peripheral Limitations to Oxygen Transport in Forearm
Postmyr, Ingunn Jystad (Master thesis, 2013)Maximal oxygen consumption (VO2max) is concidered being the factor contributing most to aerobic endurance and to have an important role concidering both health and quality of life. The ongoing discussion the last decades ... -
Physical Health Impairment and Exercise as Medicine in Severe Mental Disorders: A Narrative Review
Brobakken, Mathias Forsberg; Nygård, Mona; Wang, Eivind (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Background: Individuals with severe mental disorders (SMDs; schizophrenia spectrum disorders, bipolar disorder, and major depressive disorder) are not only suffering from their mental conditions; they also have an attenuated ... -
Prediction of upper extremity peak oxygen consumption from heart rate during submaximal arm cycling in young and middle-aged adults
Helgerud, Jan; Øiestad, Britt Elin; Wang, Eivind; Hoff, Jan (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Based on the strong linear relationship between heart rate (HR) and oxygen consumption, the Åstrand–Ryhming cycle ergometer test (Astrand and Ryhming in J Appl Physiol 7:218–221, 1954) is a widely used submaximal test to ... -
Relationship Between Blood Flow in Brachial Artery and Basilic Vein During Increasing Forearm Flexor Muscle Work
Eriksson, Marte Resell (Master thesis, 2012)Background: Cardiac output (Q) is thought to be one of the main factors determining maximal oxygen consumption (VO2max) during whole- body exercise. During exercise with a reduced volume of active ... -
Reliability of forearm oxygen uptake during handgrip exercise : assessment by ultrasonography and venous blood gas
Nyberg, Stian Kwak; Berg, Ole Kristian; Helgerud, Jan; Wang, Eivind (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Assessment of forearm oxygen uptake (O2) during handgrip exercise is a keenly investigated concept for observing small muscle mass metabolism. Although a combination of Doppler ultrasound measurements of brachial artery ... -
Responses to Maximal Strength Training in Different Age and Gender Groups
Hans Torvild, Kittilsen; Goleva-Fjellet, Sannija; Freberg, Baard Ingegerdsson; Nicolaisen, Iver; Støa, Eva Maria; Bratland-Sanda, Solfrid; Helgerud, Jan; Wang, Eivind; Sæbø, Mona; Støren, Øyvind (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Purpose: The present study aimed to investigate the potential impact of age, gender, baseline strength, and selected candidate polymorphisms on maximal strength training (MST) adaptations. Methods: A total of 49 subjects ... -
Skeletal Muscle Blood Flow in the Brachial Artery and its Regulation During Increasing Intensities
Often, Sanna Daaland (Master thesis, 2012)The aim of this study was to identify the blood flow pattern during a handgrip exercise test, and hence when blood flow results in the highest shear rate on the vessel walls. It was hypothesized ... -
Smartphone-assisted high-intensity interval training in inflammatory rheumatic disease patients : randomized controlled trial
Haglo, Håvard Pedersen; Wang, Eivind; Berg, Ole Kristian; Hoff, Jan; Helgerud, Jan (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Background: Patients with inflammatory rheumatic diseases (IRDs) experience disease-related barriers to physical training. Compared with the general population, IRD patients are reported to have reduced maximal oxygen ... -
Strength training: The impact of executing the concentric phase of a movement with maximal intended velocity
Espedal, Lars (Master thesis, 2019)Strength training is typically performed with the intention to increase the skeletal muscle force-generating capacity. For an optimal outcome, it has been argued that repetitions should be carried out with maximal intended ... -
The Acute Effect of Either Resistance or Endurance Exercise on Circulating Vitamin D Levels in Young Adults
Aagård, Norun (Master thesis, 2019)Background: Vitamin D is a steroid-hormone involved in a wide range of physiological processes in the human body. It has more recently been proposed that muscle cells are able to store vitamin D and secrete the hormone ... -
The acute effect of heavy resistance and high-intensity interval training on biochemical markers of bone turnover in healthy young adults
Johansen, Cathrine (Master thesis, 2019)Objective: Biochemical markers of bone turnover are commonly used predictors of bone metabolism and for diagnosis of osteoporosis and treatment evaluation. Both resistance and endurance training has been shown to influence ... -
The Effect of Intensity and Maximal Intended Velocity on Neuromuscular Activation in Old and Young - A Cross-Sectional Study.
Malmo, Thomas (Master thesis, 2019)Intensity is recognized as a key component of strength training. For effective neuromuscular adaptations it has been suggested that high intensity repetitions should be accompanied by a concentric phase with a maximal ... -
The Effect of Maximal Strength Training on Muscle Strength and Bone Mineral Density in Patients with Substance Use Disorder: A randomized controlled trial
Brose, Lena (Master thesis, 2014)Background: Patients with substance use disorder (SUD) experience a wide range of health problems, including reduced bone quality. Maximal strength training (MST) has shown to be effective in improving maximal strength ... -
Training is Medicine for Patients with Peripheral Arterial Disease
Wang, Eivind (Doktoravhandlinger ved NTNU, 1503-8181; 2009:94, Doctoral thesis, 2009)The objective in the present thesis was to evaluate possible improvements when using training as a treatment for peripheral arterial disease (PAD) patients and to study possible mechanisms behind the adaptations to training. ...
