      Andersson, Erik P; Bachl, Philipp; Schmuttermair, Anna; Staunton, Craig A.; Stöggl, Thomas L. (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-09-17)
      Purpose To compare the anaerobic work capacity (AnWC, i.e., attributable anaerobic mechanical work) assessed using four diferent approaches/models applied to time-trial (TT) cycle-ergometry exercise.<p> <p>Methods Fifteen male cyclists completed a 7×4-min submaximal protocol and a 3-min all-out TT (TT<sub>AO</sub>). Linear relationships between power output (PO) and submaximal metabolic rate were ...
    • The effect of exercise hyperpnea on gross efficiency and anaerobic capacity estimates during a 3-min cycle time trial 

      Andersson, Erik P; Osborne, John Owen; Stöggl, Thomas Leonhard; Bach, Philipp (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-12-22)
      This study aimed to analyze the effect of exercise-induced hyperpnea on gross efficiency (GE) and anaerobic capacity estimates during a self-paced 3-min supramaximal cycle time trial (TT). Fourteen highly-trained male cyclists performed 7×4-min submaximal stages, a 6-min passive rest, a 3-min TT, a 5-min passive rest, and a 6-min submaximal stage. Three models were based on the 7×4-min linear ...
    • Heart Rate Does Not Accurately Predict Metabolic Intensity During Variable-Intensity Roller Skiing or Cycling 

      Staunton, Craig A.; Andersson, Erik P; Skovereng, Knut; Björklund, Glenn (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-11-07)
      Purpose: To critically appraise the utility of heart rate (HR) and power output (PO) to predict metabolic rate (MR) and oxygen consumption ( ˙ V O 2 ) during variable-intensity roller skiing and cycling. Methods: National-level cyclists (n = 8) and cross-country skiers (n = 9) completed a preliminary session to determine ˙ V O 2 max , and a variable-intensity protocol with 3 high-intensity ...
    • Individual fluctuations in blood lactate concentration during an ice hockey game; differences between player positions 

      Andersson, Erik P; Lögdal, Nestor; Laaksonen, Marko S. (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-07-08)
      The main purpose of the current study was to provide an in-depth description of individual player’s intra-game physiological responses during an ice hockey game. A secondary aim was to compare these responses between forwards and defensemen. Six elite junior ice hockey players, three forwards and three defensemen, median (interquartile range) 17 (17–17) years, 182 (180– 185) cm, and 78 (74– 80) ...
    • Physiological responses and performance during a 3-minute cycle time trial: standard paced versus all-out paced 

      Dobler, Florian; Bachl, Philipp; Stöggl, Thomas; Andersson, Erik P (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-08-22)
      Purpose: To compare performance and physiological responses between a standard-paced 3-minute time trial (TT<sub>SP</sub>, ie, pacing based on normal intention) and a consistently all-out-paced 3-minute time trial (TTAOP). <p> <p>Methods: Sixteen well-trained male cyclists completed the TT<sub>SP</sub> and TT<sub>AOP</sub>, on separate days of testing, on a cycling ergometer with power output and ...
    • Physiological responses and performance factors for double-poling and diagonal-stride treadmill roller-skiing time-trial exercise 

      Andersson, Erik P; Lögdal, Nestor; Byrne, Darragh; Jones, Thomas W. (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-06-11)
      Purpose - To compare physiological responses between a self-paced 4-min double-poling (DP) time-trial (TT<sub>DP</sub>) versus a 4-min diagonal-stride (DS) time-trial (TT<sub>DS</sub>). The relative importance of peak oxygen uptake (V˙O<sub>2peak</sub>), anaerobic capacity, and gross efficiency (GE) for projection of 4-min TTDP and TTDS roller-skiing performances were also examined.<p> <p>Methods - ...
    • Prevalence and Self-Perceived Experiences With the Use of Hormonal Contraceptives Among Competitive Female Cross-Country Skiers and Biathletes in Norway: The FENDURA Project 

      Engseth, Tina Pettersen; Andersson, Erik P; Solli, Guro Strøm; Morseth, Bente; Thomassen, Tor Oskar; Noordhof, Dionne; Sandbakk, Øyvind; Welde, Boye (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-04-14)
      Purpose: To investigate the prevalence of hormonal contraceptive (HC) use by female cross-country (XC) skiers and biathletes competing at a national and/or international level, their reasons for HC use, and to compare negative symptoms related to the HC-/menstrual cycle in HC users and non-HC users. Additionally, to characterize the self-perceived influence of HC use on training and performance.<p ...
