The impact of nonspecific exercise on the coordination of the upper extremities in swimming style crawl
Hejkalová, Barbora ; Jurák, Daniel (advisor) ; Pokorná, Jitka (referee)
Title: The impact of nonspecific exercise on the coordination of the upper extremities in swimming style crawl Objectives: The aim of this thesis is to determine whether the exercise alternating circling of the upper extremities in standing applied during the swimming lessons has impact on improving technically swimming style crawl. Methods: The research involved 30 probands of the 1st degree of Faculty of Physical Education of Sport Charles University who have never taken part in swimming training. During the research was used only non-invasive methods. The measurement of height of body, upper extremity range and body composition on TANITA device. Testing was carried out in the laboratories of sports motorics at Faculty of Physical Education of Sport in Charles' University. Than testing in swimming pool was attended a swimming test at the distance of 25 and 50 m. Probands were testing in time and it was calculated number of strokes in a swimming test at the distance of 25 to 50 m. Results: In the swimming test of 25 m distance it was statistically significant change in overall performance, only a high degree of material significance was confirmed in the frequency of the strokes. In the swimming test of 50 m distance we recorded a statistically significant change in the overall performance only in...

Control of somatic indicators and movement abilities in basic stage training
Michalcová, Naďa ; Chrzanowská, Babeta (advisor) ; Pokorná, Jitka (referee)
Name: Control of somatic indicators and movement abilities in basic stage training Aim: The aim of this bachelors thesis is to monitor the somatic parameters and movement assumptions of the modern pentathlonist aged between 8 to 11 years. Methods: A descriptive method for selected laboratory tests was used in this thesis. The results were arranged and processed. The comparison method was used for measured results of the somatic parameters and movement assumptions. Outcome: Measured values were compared and processed. The results showed that in case of selected tests, there are no age and development differences. Tests, by which the movement abilities were concluded are not dependent on the age and the development of the child. The performance is connected with movements assumptions which are partially inherited. The tests serve as a chech up on the childs natural development for further processing. Key words testing, kids and youth, movement abilities, primary stage of training

Hejkalová, Barbora ; Jurák, Daniel (advisor) ; Pokorná, Jitka (referee)
Title: The impact of technical exercise - alternating circling of the upper extremities - to technical part and performance of swimming style crawl, observed in Charles' University students of the Faculty of Physical Education and Sport Objectives: The aim of this thesis is to determine whether the exercise alternating circling of the upper extremities in standing applied during the swimming lessons has impact on improving technically swimming style crawl. Methods: The research involved 28 probands of the 1st degree of Faculty of Physical Education of Sport Charles University who have never taken part in swimming training.

Testing was carried out in the laboratories of sports motorics at Faculty of Physical Education of Sport in Charles' University. Than testing in swimming pool was attended a swimming test at the distance of 25 and 50 m. Probands were testing in time and it was calculated number of strokes in a swimming test at the distance of 25 to 50 m. Results: Based on testing, we can say that intervention of the exercise alternating circling the upper extremities in probands of intervention group had a statistically significant reduction in...

Blahovcová, Adéla ; Pokorná, Jitka (advisor) ; Čechovská, Irena (referee)
Title: An observation of varying performances of triathletes based upon gender and age in the sport of Iron Distance Triathlons. Objectives: The goal of the thesis is to compare the results of the swim leg in the Ironman World Championship. We will be working with thirteen age groups compiling of 18 - 80 plus year old participants as well as both genders, male and female to gather our results. Our plan is to process results from the years 2005-2014, which is exactly 10 years or one decade. Method: Our method for gathering the results was a multiple analysis that complied a breakdown of the swim portion of an Iron Distance Triathlon for all Age Groups during those specific years. Results: After extensive research analyzing data, comparing data and studying past performances, we found that the participants times in the swim portion of Ironman Triathlon World Championships showed small significant differences over the past ten years. With minor deteriorations or improvements, swimming performances were seen at a consistent level for male and female age group 25-40. Men in the age group 18-54 showed improved outcomes over the women's same age group by 6-15%. In age groups ranging from 55- 80+, swim times increased by 15%. Overall the age groups with the most significant fluctuations in swim times was...

Kopalová, Michaela ; Pokorná, Jitka (advisor) ; Čechovská, Irena (referee)
Title: Evolution of the performance of European junior medalists from the years 2000 - 2008 in swimming Objective: The aim of the Thesis is to find out whether swimmers who won a medal at the European Junior Championship in the period 2000-2008 continue swimming careers for the next five years. Methods: We chose the method of data analysis to describe the process of swimming careers. Data were obtained from scorecards of the European Junior Championships 2000 - 2008, European Championship in short pool 2001-2013 and the Olympic Games 2004, 2008, 2012. Results: Our survey shows that 70% of swimmers after their medal success at the European Junior Championship in 2000-2008 managed to qualify for the upcoming European Championship in the period. Analysis of collected data shows that 25% of competitors achieved medals at the European Championships in the years 2001-2013. Based on our research we can deduce that the most of the medalist from the European Junior Championship do not continue swimming careers in their adulthood. Keywords: Junior age, swimming career, swimming performance, swimming disciplines
