The effect of BodyPump and resistance training with and without a personal trainer on overweight and obese women
No full textAvhandling (doktorgrad) - Norges idrettshøgskole, 2018Background: Individuals categorized as overweight (BMI ≥25.0 kg/m2) or obese (BMI ≥30.0 kg/m2) are currently recommended to perform resistance training 2-3 times a week (60-80% of the 1RM). Although resistance training can be conducted in many different ways and at different venues, many choose to exercise at a health- and fitness club, where you typically can choose between strengthening group sessions, resistance training with a personal trainer and non-supervised resistance training. BodyPump is worldwide a popular group session, prechoreographed and distributed by LesMills International. The session consists of approximately 10 music tracks, exercises for the whole body and 800-1000 repetitions with low to moderate loads (a 1.25 kg barbell, and weights of 0.5 kg, 1.0 kg and 5.0 kg).
Methods and aims: The main purpose of this thesis was to conduct an assessor blinded randomized controlled trial, to investigate different effects of BodyPump and traditional heavy load resistance training (linear periodization, 8-10, 13-15 and 3-6 repetitions) with and without a personal trainer on overweight and obese women after 12 weeks of exercise (3 times/week). A total of 143 women were included and randomly assigned to BodyPump (n=37), resistance training with a personal trainer (n=35), non-supervised resistance training (n=35) or nonexercising controls (n=36). In paper I, the effect of resistance training on muscle strength and body composition were assessed, and in paper II the effect on self-reported musculoskeletal pain. In paper III, within- and between group differences in resting metabolic rate in a subgroup of the participants were assessed, while in paper IV energy expenditure during a single session of BodyPump (n=10) was assessed and compared with a single session of heavy load resistance training (n=8).
Results and conclusion: Losses to follow up were 32%, 17%, 40% and 35% in the BodyPump group, personal trainer group, non-supervised group and control group, respectively. In paper I, the BodyPump group showed no effect on muscle strength or body composition. The personal trainer group increased significantly more in 1RM squat than all the other groups (p≤0.001), and significantly more than the BodyPump group and controls in bench press (p≤0.001). There was no between group changes in body composition. In paper II, the results showed no differences in self-reported musculoskeletal pain at baseline or post-test. In paper III, the resting metabolic rate increased similar in the two groups (p=0.660); 8.5% (±10.8) in the BodyPump group and 10.5% (± 10.4) in the heavy load group. In paper IV, energy expenditure was similar in the two groups (p=0.69); 302 kcal ±67 during BodyPump and 289 kcal ±69 during heavy load resistance training (paper IV).Paper I: Rustaden AM, Haakstad LAH, Paulsen G, Bø K.

Your Post has been Removed
No full textThis open access monograph argues established democratic norms for freedom of expression should be implemented on the internet. Moderating policies of tech companies as Facebook, Twitter and Google have resulted in posts being removed on an industrial scale. While this moderation is often encouraged by governments - on the pretext that terrorism, bullying, pornography, “hate speech” and “fake news” will slowly disappear from the internet - it enables tech companies to censure our society. It is the social media companies who define what is blacklisted in their community standards. And given the dominance of social media in our information society, we run the risk of outsourcing the definition of our principles for discussion in the public domain to private companies. Instead of leaving it to social media companies only to take action, the authors argue democratic institutions should take an active role in moderating criminal content on the internet. To make this possible, tech companies should be analyzed whether they are approaching a monopoly. Antitrust legislation should be applied to bring those monopolies within democratic governmental oversight. Despite being in different stages in their lives, Anne Mette is in the startup phase of her research career, while Frederik is one of the most prolific philosophers in Denmark, the authors found each other in their concern about Free Speech on the internet. The book was originally published in Danish as Dit opslag er blevet fjernet - techgiganter & ytringsfrihed. Praise for 'Your Post has been Removed' "From my perspective both as a politician and as private book collector, this is the most important non-fiction book of the 21st Century.

Effect of regular resistance training on motivation, self-perceived health, and quality of life in previously inactive overweight women: a randomized, controlled trial
No full text© 2016 The Author(s). This is an Open Access article.The aim was to investigate the effects of three different types of resistance training implementation. Design. Randomized controlled trial. Methods. Inactive, overweight women (), mean BMI kg/m2, mean age years, were randomized to one of the following groups: A (BodyPump group training), B (individual follow-up by a personal trainer), C (nonsupervised exercise), or D (controls). The intervention included 12 weeks of 45–60 minutes’ full-body resistance training three sessions per week. The outcomes in this paper are all secondary outcome measures: exercise motivation, self-perceived health, and quality of life. Results. Adherence averaged of 36 prescribed sessions. After the intervention period, all three training groups (A–C) had better scores on exercise motivation (, , ) compared to the control group (D) () (). Groups B and C scored better on self-perceived health (, ), compared to group D () (). For quality of life measurement, there was no statistically significant difference between either intervention groups or the control. Conclusions. Resistance training contributed to higher scores in important variables related to exercise motivation and self-perceived health. Low adherence showed that it was difficult to motivate previously inactive, overweight women to participate in regular strength training.Seksjon for idrettsmedisinske fag / Department of Sports Medicin

No use, distribution or reproduction is permitted which does not comply with these terms.Purpose: High-repetition, low-load resistance exercise in group class settings has gained popularity in recent years, with BodyPump as a prime example. For individuals using exercise for body-weight management, the energy expenditure during exercise is of interest. Therefore, we herein aimed to estimate the energy expenditure during a session of BodyPump and a time-matched session of heavy load resistance training in overweight women (BMI ≥ 25.0). Methods: Eighteen women participated in the study (mean age 35.4 years ± 10.2, BMI 30.4 kg/m2 ± 4.8), 10 exercising BodyPump (50–100 repetitions each muscle group) and eight performed a heavy load session (eight repetition maximum × three sets). The energy expenditure was assessed with indirect calorimetry during the sessions and for two intervals at rest during the recovery phase: 0–20 and 120–140 min after the sessions. Results: The BodyPump group lifted significantly more loads than the heavy load group (19,485 kg ± 2258 vs 15,616 kg ± 2976, p = 0.006), while energy expenditure was similar with 302 kcal ± 67 and 289 kcal ± 69 in BodyPump and heavy load group, respectively (p = 0.69). With no group differences, the resting metabolic rate (RMR) was elevated with 15–22% 2 h after exercise. Conclusion: Overweight women achieved an energy expenditure of approximately 300 kcal (4.7 kcal per min) during a single session of BodyPump, which was similar with the women performing a single session of heavy load resistance exercise.publishedVersionInstitutt for idrettsmedisinske fag / Department of Sports Medicin
