Trends in human height of elite female artistic gymnasts in comparision with three consecutive generations.
Pospíšilová, Anežka ; Radvanský, Jiří (advisor) ; Procházka, Michal (referee)
There is no common opinion, if the final height of female artistic gymnasts is jeopardized due to excessive training from early childhood. The aim of this master thesis is to compare a trend in human height of artistic gymnasts in three consecutive generations. Auxologic and related information were obtained from 49 elite artistic gymnasts via questionnaire. All were the members of national team. We figured out that artistic gymnasts are statistically smaller than their same-age peers. However, all of them have reached their genetically determined growth potential. The final height of artistic gymnasts across generations was increasing as well as the average female population. According to growth charts, constitutional delay is typical for artistic gymnasts. The age of menarche was statistically higher in the two youngest generations in comparison with the average age of their peers. According to our results, artistic gymnasts are not smaller due to excessive training from childhood, but on the grounds of genetic predisposition for small stature, which is favorable for this sport.

Validation of Czech Version of 3DPAR questionare for adolescent
Svobodová, Eliška ; Procházka, Michal (advisor) ; Radvanský, Jiří (referee)
Author's first name and surname: Bc. Eliška Svobodová Title of the master thesis: The Validation of czech version of 3DPAR questionnaire for adolescents Department: Department of Physiotherapy and Sports Medicine Supervisor: As. MUDr. Michal Procházka The year of presentation: 2013 Abstract: The aim of the study was to test the questionnaire of physical activity "3 Day Physical Activity Recall" and determine its reliability and validity. The research was accomplished by using pedometers Yamax SW 200 on a group of children from 15 to 17 years. The theoretical part of this thesis reviews the possibilities of monitoring the physical activity of youth by subjective and objective methods with some examples of studies already carried out. The results were statistically processed and described. Keywords: physical activity, 3DPAR questionnaire, pedometer I agree the thesis paper to be lent within the library service.

Habitual physical activity in Preschool children: Comparison of common Kindergartens and Forest Kindergarten
Zemlerová, Hana ; Procházka, Michal (advisor) ; Havlíčková, Michaela (referee)
The aim of the work was to objectively examine the physical activity of children in two different types of preschools, in forest kindergarten and common kindergartens. The theoretical part deals with the characteristic of movement in the preschool children, with factors influencing physical activity, the benefits for this age and the means for measuring objectively physical activity. Research is focused on one particular forest kindergarten. Pedometer was elected for measuring the examined physical activity. According to the results children in the forest kindergarten make more steps during their stay in school as well as overall per day than children in regular kindergartens. Conversely in the afternoon after leaving the nursery they are less active than the children from regular kindergartens. The most prominent difference in the level of physical activity between the two groups of children showed during their stay in pre-school facilities. Forest nursery could be a good alternative to preschool education in terms of sufficient physical activity.

Thermogenesis in relation to body exercise
Smutný, Michal ; Radvanský, Jiří (advisor) ; Procházka, Michal (referee)
Thermogenesis is an essential component of human body energy expenditure. It is a part of all metabolic processes. Physical exertion poses a challenge to the thermoregulatory mechanisms by increase of metabolic heat production. The ability of compensation increasing body core temperature (Tc) can be observed by measuring body temperature. Body core temperature measurement can help trainers and doctors to prevent injuries and performance lost. This review provides the reader with the view on the current methods used for measuring increasing Tc during physical aktivity. Also discuss about the human thermoregulation and it's observing by measuring body temperature. The aim of this work is also to describe influence of the technologies and development on the approach in body core temperature measurement.

Diabetes mellitus type I. and physical activity
Douša, Martin ; Radvanský, Jiří (advisor) ; Procházka, Michal (referee)
The bachelor's thesis deals with diabetes mellitus type 1 and the opportunity of compensation by adequate physical activity, focusing on middle age and older patients, having suffered from diabetes for a long period of time. The thesis focuses on the different attributes of the burden, affecting the daily life of patients with diabetes. For better understanding and clarity of the issue, the work is divided into several chapters and sections dealing separately with the influence of physical activity and potential profits from regular, properly indicated motion for compensated patients. The thesis also describes involution changes occurring in the aging organism, which are always necessary to be taken into consideration when selecting a physical activity. The work is supplemented with pictures and graphs in the annex that enable a better show, and outline the issues. In my work, I not only try to show the positive influence of a wellchosen physical activity in patients with diabetes, but also highlight the potential risks and hazards coming from an improperly chosen therapy. Furthermore, I attempt to offer the chance to look at this type of therapy from several different perspectives. My aim is to show that a properly chosen physical therapy in individually selected range and performance should be much more...

Determination of Endurance performance by Conconi's test
Hrstková, Vladěna ; Procházka, Michal (advisor) ; Matouš, Miloš (referee)
My Bachelor Thesis summarizes the major determinants of endurance performance. It deals with The Conconi's test, including the current view of the likely explanations of the physiological mechanisms of the heart rate deflection point (HRDP), which provides an explanation for a purely linear, and inflection HRPC. The practice solution observes whether all tested specimens prove the HRDP and whether they end their measurement at its maximal heart rate (HRmax). Furthermore we individually trace the difficulty of field test implementation, the correlation of deflection rate (Vd) and the average rate speed (RS) in 5 km race and influence of results in inadequate physical rest before the actual measurement. The graphs were analyzed to get course of the HRPC. From the given HRPD values were assessed performance indicators of the ANP level, Vd, the percentage of HR of proportion HRDP to HRmax. According to the HRDP result, optimal training intensity development of maximum aerobic capacity was proposed to each specimen.
