  1. 1. Associations Between Fat Free Mass Percentage and Relative Force Production in Two Strength Tests

    University essay from Högskolan i Halmstad/Akademin för företagande, innovation och hållbarhet

    Author : Stefan Gerenmark; Viktor Eriksson; [2023]
    Keywords : Fat free mass; Strength; Association; Hypertrophy; Body composition; Strength test; IMTP; Grip strength; Muscle mass; Force production; Exercise physiology; Biomedicine;

    Abstract : Background: Knowledge of the relationship between fat free mass (FFM) and strength capacity is not only useful in athlete coaching, but may also be important in developing clinical strategies for evaluating health in general populations. Sufficient skeletal muscle mass and strength are important factors for health and physical function. READ MORE

  3. 2. The Effects of Longer Stage Durations During an Incremental Graded Exercise Test on the Finnish Lactate Threshold Concept

    University essay from Högskolan i Halmstad/Akademin för företagande, innovation och hållbarhet

    Author : Julius von Martens; [2021]
    Keywords : biomedicine; graded exercise test; lactate; threshold; spirometry; treadmill;

    Abstract : Background: The end-product of glycolysis is lactate, which is subsequently oxidised to produce more energy. With increasing intensity, the rate of lactate production exceeds the capacity to eliminate lactate, leading to an exponential accumulation of blood lactate. READ MORE

  4. 3. Using Mobile Devices for Exercise Capacity Testing: An Implementation and Validation Study

    University essay from Malmö universitet/Fakulteten för teknik och samhälle (TS)

    Author : Elin Forsnor; Felix Morau; [2020]
    Keywords : mHealth; Exercise Capacity Testing; healthcare; software development;

    Abstract : Mobile phones can be used to assess patients health by collecting valuable informationthrough the sensors, GPS and accelerometers and then uploading them to a centraldatabase to allow for clinicians to remotely monitor the decline, improvement or over-all health status of a patient [1] [2].Many mHealth applications use mobile phones built-in GPS, accelerometer and othersensors which allows for a large selection of work to compare the implemented exercisecapacity test to [1].

  5. 4. Past and present physical activity are independently associated to physical function in elderly women

    University essay from Örebro universitet/Institutionen för hälsovetenskaper

    Author : Simon Holstensson; [2018]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : INTRODUCTION: Physical function is an important predictor for health and all-cause mortality. Physical function is also known to decline as part of the aging process and may eventually lead to loss of independency. Both present and past physical activity (PA) habits as well as sedentary behavior are associated to physical function in elderly. READ MORE
