    • Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease does not impair responses to resistance training 

      Mølmen, Knut Sindre; Hammarström, Jens Konrad Daniel; Falch, Gunnar Slettaløkken; Grundtvig, Morten; Koll, Lise; Hanestadhaugen, Marita; Khan, Yusuf; Ahmad, Rafi; Malerbakken, Bente; Rødølen, Tore Jørgen; Lien, Roger; Rønnestad, Bent; Raastad, Truls; Ellefsen, Stian (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-07-06)
      <i>Background</i> - Subjects with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) are prone to accelerated decay of muscle strength and mass with advancing age. This is believed to be driven by disease-inherent systemic pathophysiologies, which are also assumed to drive muscle cells into a state of anabolic resistance, leading to impaired abilities to adapt to resistance exercise training. Currently, ...

    • Effects of Including Sprints in One Weekly Low-Intensity Training Session During the Transition Period of Elite Cyclists 

      Almquist, Nicki Winfield; Løvlien, Ine; Byrkjedal, Per Thomas; Spencer, Matthew; Kristoffersen, Morten; Skovereng, Knut; Sandbakk, Øyvind; Rønnestad, Bent (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020-09-11)
      The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of including 30-s sprints in one weekly low-intensity training (LIT) session during a 3-week transition period in elite cyclists. Sixteen male elite cyclists (maximal oxygen uptake, VO<sub>2max</sub>: 72 ± 5 ml·kg<sup>−1</sup>·min<sup>−1</sup>) reduced their training load by ~60% for 3 weeks from the end of competitive season and performed ...

    • Increased biological relevance of transcriptome analyses in human skeletal muscle using a model-specific pipeline 

      Khan, Yusuf; Hammarström, Jens Konrad Daniel; Rønnestad, Bent; Ellefsen, Stian; Ahmad, Rafi (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020-11-30)
      <i>Background</i> - Human skeletal muscle responds to weight-bearing exercise with significant inter-individual differences. Investigation of transcriptome responses could improve our understanding of this variation. However, this requires bioinformatic pipelines to be established and evaluated in study-specific contexts. Skeletal muscle subjected to mechanical stress, such as through resistance ...
