• Comparison of Core Muscle Activation between a Prone Bridge and 6-RM Back Squats 

      van den Tillaar, Roland; Sæterbakken, Atle Hole (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)
      The purpose of this study was to compare core muscle activation during a prone bridge (plank) until failure and 6-RM back squats. Twelve resistance-trained males (age 23.5 ± 2.6 years, body mass 87.8 ± 21.3 kg, body height ...
    • Comparison of muscle activation and kinematics during free-weight back squats with different loads 

      van den Tillaar, Roland; Andersen, Vidar; Sæterbakken, Atle Hole (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)
      Although several studies have examined the effects of performing resistance training with different percentages of one-repetition maximum (1-RM), little is known of the neuromuscular effects and kinematics of lifting low ...
    • The effects of ten weeks resistance training on sticking region in chest-press exercises 

      Sæterbakken, Atle Hole; Andersen, Vidar; van den Tillaar, Roland; Joly, Florian; Stien, Nicolay; Pedersen, Helene; Shaw, Matthew Peter; Solstad, Tom Erik Jorung (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)
      The aim of the study was to compare the effects of a 10-week chest-press resistance training on lifting regions in a trained exercise and a none-trained exercise; the barbell bench press (BBP). Thirty-five resistance trained ...
    • The effects of performing integrated compared to isolated core exercises 

      Sæterbakken, Atle Hole; Chaudhari, Ajit; van den Tillaar, Roland; Andersen, Vidar (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)
      Integrated exercises that mimic daily tasks are generally preferred for improving performance and the later stages of rehabilitation, but it is unknown whether integrated core exercises are better than isolated core exercises ...
