Title: The influence of foam rolling on range of motion, strength of the knee extensors and flexors and H/Q ratio. Objectives: The aim of the diploma thesis was to determine the effect of the foam roller on the range of motion and strength of the extensors and flexors of the knee joint. The muscular strength of the knee extensors and flexors was determined using a Humac norm isokinetic dynamometer. Another goal was to determine the effect of the foam roller on the force ratio of extensors and flexors (H / Q) which is an important detail for the prevention of lower limb injuries Methods: This is an experimental study. The measured research group (n = 12) consisted of the students of the Faculty of Physical Education and Sport at the Charles University. A Black roll foam roller of medium hardness with a non-serrated surface was used. The range of motion of the knee flexors were measured using the sit and reach test and the knee extension test. The range of motion of the knee extensors were measured using a modified Thomas test and Ely's test. The isokinetic strength of the extensors and flexors muscles of the knee joint and the H/Q ratio were measured using a Humac Norm isokinetic dynamometer. Results: Measurements showed that the foam roller affected the range of motion of the flexors and extensors...

Title: Diagnostics of the asymmetries of the deltoid muscles of table tennis players by using tensiomyography. Objectives: The aim of this bachelor thesis was to define the hypothesis about the impact of table tennis on the musculoskeletal apparatus, to determine muscle dysbalance and select suitable exercises for improvement. Methods: This is a case study. The research is done qualitatively by mapping a small number of probands. Six selected individuals were measured, the results were analysed and according to this the recommendations were made. The tensiomyograph TMG 100 was used to diagnose muscular asymmetries in the deltoid muscle. Results: From the measurements of six probands was found that the greatest asymmetry was in the lateral part of the deltoid muscle. Because of the greater flaccidity of a non-playing arm, four probands were recommended to do strengthening exercises and three probands were recommended to do activation exercises on their non- playing arm. At the front of the deltoid muscle, two probands had a shortened muscles on a playing arm and a flapless non-playing arm, so they were recommended to perform strengthening exercises on non-playing arm and stretching exercises on the playing arm. At the back of the deltoid muscle, the players had different results in muscle imbalance,...
