• Age-related change in peak oxygen uptake and change of cardiovascular risk factors. The HUNT Study 

      Letnes, Jon Magne; Dalen, Håvard; Aspenes, Stian Thoresen; Salvesen, Øyvind; Wisløff, Ulrik; Nes, Bjarne (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)
      Background Large longitudinal studies on change in directly measured peak oxygen uptake (VO2peak) is lacking, and its significance for change of cardiovascular risk factors is uncertain. We aimed to assess ten-year ...
    • Are the Neuroprotective Effects of Exercise Training Systemically Mediated? 

      Tari, Atefe R; Norevik, Cecilie Skarstad; Scrimgeour, Nathan Robert; Kobro-Flatmoen, Asgeir; Storm-Mathisen, Jon; Bergersen, Linda Hildegard; Wrann, Christiane D; Selbæk, Geir; Kivipelt, Miia; Moreira, Jose Bianco Nascimento; Wisloff, Ulrik (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)
      To date there is no cure available for dementia, and the field calls for novel therapeutic targets. A rapidly growing body of literature suggests that regular endurance training and high cardiorespiratory fitness attenuate ...
    • High Intensity Interval Training for Maximizing Health Outcomes 

      Karlsen, Trine; Aamot, Inger Lise; Haykowsky, Mark; Rognmo, Øivind (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)
      Regular physical activity and exercise training are important actions to improve cardiorespiratory fitness and maintain health throughout life. There is solid evidence that exercise is an effective preventative strategy ...
    • Identification of novel genetic variants associated with cardiorespiratory fitness 

      Bye, Anja; Klevjer, Marie; Ryeng, Einar; Silva, Gustavo Jose Justo; Moreira, Jose Bianco Nascimento; Stensvold, Dorthe; Wisløff, Ulrik (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)
      Introduction Low maximal oxygen uptake (VO2max) is a strong and independent risk factor for all-cause and cardiovascular disease (CVD) mortality. For other CVD risk factors, numerous genetic association studies have been ...
