  2. 6. Exercising on the edge: mitochondrial and metabolic responses to intense training

    Author : Mikael Flockhart; Filip J Larsen; Eva Blomstrand; Nikolai Baastrup Nordsborg; Gymnastik- och idrottshögskolan; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Exercise; training; mitochondria; performance; glucose tolerance; proteins; oxygen uptake; metabolism; cycling; Medicin Teknik; Medicine Technology;

    Abstract : Exercise and exercise training induces several physiological adaptations that increase the oxidative capacity of the muscles and improve glucose regulation. While the positive metabolic adaptations and effects on glucose regulation after exercise and exercise training have been extensively studied, negative outcomes have not. READ MORE

  4. 7. Grading in physical education

    Author : Lena Svennberg; Karin Redelius; Jane Meckbach; Ann MacPhail; Gymnastik- och idrottshögskolan; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; physical education; assessment; movement qualities; criterion referenced; standards-based grading; internalised grading; gut-feeling; equity; Bernstein; Repertory Grid; Samhällsvetenskap Humaniora; Social Sciences Humanities;

    Abstract : In the thesis the aim is to investigate different aspects of what teachers value when grading in Swedish physical education (PE) and to analyses how sociological background factors impact students’ grades. Grades in PE have included aspects other than those prescribed in the grading criteria, for instance motivation and effort. READ MORE

    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; permanent medical impairment; severe injuries; knee injury; dental; eye injury; football; handball; ice hockey; floorball; basketball; motorcycle; automobile sports; incidence of acute injury; invaliditet; allvarliga skador; idrottsskada; försäkringsdata; knäskada; prevention; fotboll; innebandy; handboll; ishockey; basket; motorcykel; bilsport; tandskada; ögonskada; Medicin Teknik; Medicine Technology;

    Abstract : Physical activity is an essential component of a healthy life, e.g. to prevent obesity, cardiovascular disease and premature death, of which sports can be an important part. Unfortunately, sports activities increase the risk of both overuse and acute injuries. READ MORE

  6. 9. Effects of exercise and amino acid intake on mechanisms regulating protein synthesis and breakdown in human muscle

    Author : Marcus Moberg; Eva Blomstrand; Hans-Christer Holmberg; Jørgen Jensen; Gymnastik- och idrottshögskolan; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Resistance exercise; concurrent exericse; leucine; BCAA; mTORC1 signaling; protein synthesis; MuRF-1; PGC-1alpha; Medicin Teknik; Medicine Technology;

    Abstract : Skeletal muscle adapts differently to specific modes of exercise, where resistance training results in muscle growth and endurance training induces mitochondrial biogenesis. These are results of molecular events that occur after each exercise session, increasing the expression of specific genes and the rate of both synthesis and breakdown of protein. READ MORE

  7. 10. Early specialising aesthetic performers : An investigation of conceptualisation, motivation, and context

    Author : Charlotte Downing; Sanna Nordin-Bates; Karin Redelius; Joe Baker; Gymnastik- och idrottshögskolan; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Samhällsvetenskap Humaniora; Social Sciences Humanities;

    Abstract : This doctoral research project is situated within the wider debate of talent development in so-called early sports, where early specialisation is often normalised. The overarching aim is to investigate early specialisation within the context of Swedish aesthetic activities. READ MORE
