Training camp in Guiyang, China
Skrevet av Ingrid den 26.07.2011
Sitting in my room finally getting online after 5 days. It so crazy being here so far from home were all the terrible violence and bombing has happened. Since we didn’t get to read the news my dad has updated me with texts and we have also watched Chinese news that covers the terrorist attacks. It sounds unrealistic that something like this could happen in peaceful Norway. My first thought goes out to the family of all the victims. So many young people that were helpless shoot down. Looking at pictures in the news of people all over the world laying out flowers at the Norwegian embassies showing that they care and that their thoughts are with the Norwegian people is touching. Luckily for me none of my family or friends were at this places were the terror attacks happened (as I know here from China) but in such a small country as Norway everyone knows someone that’s affected by this. I wish I could be home with my family right now.
Going to ECSS 2011 in Liverpool
Skrevet av Ingrid den 05.07.2011
Tomorrow Im going to the scientific conference ECSS in Liverpool. I am looking forward to get a lot of scientific input. YEAH. This conference is a scientific conference about sport and everything around it. As some of you know I am working on my phd in physiology in the University of Oslo. With a background from the Norwegian School of Sport Science (that’s by the way is the greatest sport school) I do appreciate that I can work in the physiology field. Making people more active and see the beauty of sport I do see as my mission in life. Im now doing research about the long lasting effects of anabolic steroids in Soleus and Edl. Soleus is a muscle that mostly consist of fiber type I (slow twitch myosin) which are shown to be most sensitive to anabolic steroids. But out of curiosity I wanted also to check Edl that is a muscle consistent mostly of fiber type II. Im not near finishing the results but I already see that the effect of using anabolic steroids are huge, and it scares me. It does not surprise me because other has shown this before and Im most interested in the muscle nuclei. But, I do wish to keep sport clean. Sport is not fair genetically. You even have the talent or u dont. But please dont put performance enhancers into the sport. We want to believe that sport is fair. We want to believe that the winner won bec of training hard and talent not bec of drug. If we accept drug abuse sport is worth nothing. Actually it is the scientist in the lab that are winning the medals and not he athlete. We dont want to see that. As a scientist and a top athlete Im telling u all; what am I training for if we put performance enhancement into sport?
