Acute Effects of Elastic Bands as Resistance or Assistance on EMG, Kinetics, and Kinematics During Deadlift in Resistance-Trained Men
Andersen, Vidar; Pedersen, Helene; Fimland, Marius Steiro; Shaw, Matthew Peter; Solstad, Tom Erik Jorung; Stien, Nicolay; Cumming, Kristoffer Toldnes; Sæterbakken, Atle Hole (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)The aim of the study was to compare neuromuscular activation, kinetics and kinematics in three variations of the deadlift: (1) free weights, (2) free weights with elastic bands as resistance (bands anchored to the ground) ... -
Ballistic strength training in adults with cerebral palsy may increase rate of force development in plantar flexors, but transition to walking remains unclear: a case series
Gjesdal, Beate Eltarvåg; Mæland, Silje; Bogen, Bård Erik; Cumming, Kristoffer Toldnes; Nesse, Vilde Cathrine; Torberntsson, Silje Marie Rydningen; Rygh, Cecilie Brekke (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Background Persons with cerebral palsy (CP) walk with reduced ankle plantar flexor power compared to typically developing. In this study, we investigated whether a ballistic strength-training programme targeting ankle ... -
Can adults with cerebral palsy perform and benefit from ballistic strength training to improve walking outcomes? A mixed methods feasibility study
Gjesdal, Beate Eltarvåg; Mæland, Silje; Williams, Gavin; Aaslund, Mona Kristin; Rygh, Cecilie Brekke; Cumming, Kristoffer Toldnes (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Background Power bursts of hips and ankle plantar flexors are prerequisites to walking propulsion. However, these power bursts are reduced during gait for persons with cerebral palsy (CP) and mainly in the ankle plantar ... -
Comparison of Muscle Activity in Three Single-Joint, Hip Extension Exercises in Resistance-Trained Women
Andersen, Vidar; Pedersen, Helene; Fimland, Marius Steiro; Shaw, Matthew Peter; Solstad, Tom Erik Jorung; Stien, Nicolay; Cumming, Kristoffer Toldnes; Sæterbakken, Atle Hole (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)The aim of the study was to compare neuromuscular activation in the gluteus maximus, the biceps femoris and the erector spinae from the Romanian deadlift, the 45-degree Roman chair back extension and the seated machine ... -
The effect of grip width on muscle strength and electromyographic activity in bench press among novice-and resistance-trained men
Sæterbakken, Atle Hole; Stien, Nicolay; Pedersen, Helene; Solstad, Tom Erik Jorung; Cumming, Kristoffer Toldnes; Andersen, Vidar (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Background: This study compared the muscle activity and six repetition maximum (6-RM) loads in bench press with narrow, medium, and wide grip widths with sub-group comparisons of resistance-trained (RT) and novice-trained ... -
Effectiveness of a resistance training program on physical function, muscle strength, and body composition in community-dwelling older adults receiving home care: A cluster-randomized controlled trial
Bårdstu, Hilde Bremseth; Andersen, Vidar; Fimland, Marius Steiro; Aasdahl, Lene; Raastad, Truls; Cumming, Kristoffer Toldnes; Sæterbakken, Atle Hole (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Background: Aging is associated with reduced muscle mass and strength leading to impaired physical function. Resistance training programs incorporated into older adults’ real-life settings may have the potential to counteract ... -
The Effects of Trunk Muscle Training on Physical Fitness and Sport-Specific Performance in Young and Adult Athletes: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
Sæterbakken, Atle Hole; Stien, Nicolay; Andersen, Vidar; Scott, Suzanne; Cumming, Kristoffer Toldnes; Behm, David G.; Granacher, Urs; Prieske, Olaf (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Background The role of trunk muscle training (TMT) for physical fitness (e.g., muscle power) and sport-specific performance measures (e.g., swimming time) in athletic populations has been extensively examined over the ... -
Explosive Resistance Training Using Elastic Bands in Young Female Team Handball Players
Andersen, Vidar; Fimland, Marius Steiro; Cumming, Kristoffer Toldnes; Vraalsen, Øyvind Fougli; Sæterbakken, Atle Hole (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)The aim of the study was to examine the effects of full-body elastic resistance band training in young female team handball players. 12 players (16.5±0.7 years, 166±5.0 cm, 65.9±8.8 kg) completed an 11-week control period ... -
A randomized trial on the efficacy of split-body versus full-body resistance training in non-resistance trained women
Pedersen, Helene; Fimland, Marius Steiro; Schoenfeld, Brad J; Iversen, Vegard Moe; Cumming, Kristoffer Toldnes; Jensen, Susanne; Sæterbakken, Atle Hole; Andersen, Vidar (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Background The aim of this study was to assess the efficacy of a 12-week upper/lower split- versus a full-body resistance training program on maximal strength, muscle mass and explosive characteristics. Fifty resistance ... -
The role of trunk training for physical fitness and sport-specific performance
Sæterbakken, Atle Hole; Andersen, Vidar; Behm, David G; Cumming, Kristoffer Toldnes; Prieske, Olaf; Solstad, Tom Erik Jorung; Shaw, Matthew Peter; Stien, Nicolay (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)The trunk (core) muscles are involved in daily functions (i. e., stabilizing the body in everyday tasks) and force generation of the limbs during athletic tasks such as kicking, throwing, or running. Even though trunk ...
