Journal ArticleDOI
Physiology of Soccer: An Update
TL;DR: An update on the physiology of soccer players and referees, and relevant physiological tests is provided, and examples of effective strength- and endurance-training programmes to improve on-field performance are given.
Journal ArticleDOI

Arnt Erik Tjønna,Sang Jun Lee,Øivind Rognmo,Tomas Stølen,Anja Bye,Per Magnus Haram,Jan Pål Loennechen,Qusai Y. Al-Share,Eirik Skogvoll,Stig A. Slørdahl,Ole J. Kemi,Sonia M. Najjar,Ulrik Wisløff +12 more
TL;DR: Exercise intensity was an important factor for improving aerobic capacity and reversing the risk factors of the metabolic syndrome.
Journal ArticleDOI
Aerobic interval training reduces cardiovascular risk factors more than a multitreatment approach in overweight adolescents.

TL;DR: It was found that 3 months of twice weekly high-intensity exercise sessions reduced several known cardiovascular risk factors in obese adolescents more than that observed after a multitreatment strategy, which was initiated as hospital treatment.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: An important contribution towards improved aerobic work capacity, endothelial function and cardiovascular health originates from strength training, which may serve as a substitute when whole-body aerobic exercise is contra-indicated or difficult to perform.
Journal ArticleDOI
Aerobic interval training reduces blood pressure and improves myocardial function in hypertensive patients
Harald Edvard Mølmen-Hansen,Tomas Stølen,Arnt Erik Tjønna,Inger-Lise Aamot,Inga Schjerve Ekeberg,Gjertrud Aunet Tyldum,Ulrik Wisløff,Charlotte Bjork Ingul,Asbjørn Støylen +8 more
TL;DR: This study indicates that the blood pressure reducing effect of exercise in essential hypertension is intensity dependent, and aerobic interval training is an effective method to lower blood pressure and improve other cardiovascular risk factors.
