Anthropometrical, physiological, strength and other determinants of rowing performance - review of correlation-predictive analyses
Hellebrand, Jaroslav ; Busta, Jan (advisor) ; Macas, Tomáš (referee)
Title: Anthropometrical, physiological, strength and other determinants of rowing performance - review of correlation-predictive analyses Objectives: To conduct a systematic literature review to search for a best single performance variable(s) (a measure of performance) that is(are) associated with rowing performance. Methods: This thesis utilizes usual review methods in a form of database search, synthesis, and data extraction. Results: After the initial screening of 534 articles the total of 24 articles was included in this thesis for review. We identified 11 performance variables with high coefficient of correlation; Body Mass (kg), Lean Mass (kg), VO2Max (L/min), Power at VO2Max (W), Power at 4mml (W), Body Height (cm), Wingate mean (W), Wingate maximal (W), Wingate minimal (W), Leg Press 1RM (kg), and 2000m rowing ergometer score. Keywords: rowing, performance analysis, correlation, performance prediction, review
Description of selection fitness criteria for selected national teams and dependence of such criteria on performance in a single scull

Title: Description of selection fitness criteria for selected national teams and dependence of such criteria on performance in a single scull Aim: The main focus of this work is to describe current fitness selection criteria to national teams and ascertain the connection between these criteria and performance in a single scull. Methods: The structure of this thesis is descriptive. The practical part presents the relationship between selected fitness criteria obtained from 11 participants. The relationship is expressed as a correlation coefficient. Twelve values were acquired from each participant, sorted into 3 separate categories.  Tests of maximum power (1RM)  Endurance tests  Rowing ergometr tests Results: It was found that rowing federations select competitors primarily through ergometer testing, namely the tests for 2 km and 5 km or 6 km. Sculling performance is mainly dependent on individual's endurance capabilities with a correlation coefficient of r = 0, 62 and on dead lift with correlation coefficient of r = 0, 64. Power output per unit weight during endurance tests turned out to be irrelevant. So did squatting with added weight (r = 0, 00) and 1500m running (r = 0, 03). Ergometer tests which are characteristic for rowing showed medium correlation (r = 0, 58). Conclusion: None of the...
