    Author : Monica Dahlström; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : Children; dance; diet; exercise; exertion; female; fitness; muscle.;

    Abstract : The aims of this thesis were: - to estimate aerobic fitness in dancers and analyse possible changes during a three-year dance course and after a detraining period; to compare different dance styles with regard to the duration of single exercises and the following rest periods; - to estimate the physical effort in dancers during training sessions in different styles of dance; - to compare the physical effort during training sessions in dance teachers with that of dance students; - to illuminate whether a deviating muscle fibre type distribution, if any, were training-induced or the result of selection of individuals with suitable fibre characteristics, muscle fibre type distribution was compared between children, at the very beginning of their professional dance training and dancers, who had performed professional dance training for 10 years. Moreover, muscle fibre type composition was analysed in dancers after detraining. READ MORE
