Postural stability of Ultimate frisbee players
Juranová, Magdalena ; Vomáčková, Helena (advisor) ; Maršáková, Kateřina (referee)
Title: Postural stability in Ultimate frisbee players Aims: The aim of the work is to objectively measure and evaluate the dynamic postural stability of a deliberately selected group of Czech Utimate frisbee (UF) players and then compare the measured results with the "Athles Norm 20-30" (AN 20-30) standard, set for the sporting population. The postural stability of the research group of probands was measured once using the computer dynamic posturography - NeuroCom Smart EquiTest System. A partial goal of the work was to describe the results of measuring postural stability with respect to pivoting. This characteristic movement is used by UF players to obtain a suitable position for passing to a teammateduring the game. Methods: This is a scientific research work, specifically a quantitative observational cross-sectional study. The research group (n = 28) was, on the basis of predetermined criteria (to be an active UF player registered under the organization ČALD (Czech Flying Disc Association), age 18-35 years, to attend UF for at least 3 years and to have at least one national team start at the European Championships or in higher competition). UF players who met these criteria were included. Measurement on the Smart EquiTest System from NeuroCom was chosen as an objective way of evaluating postural...
Stability and coordination of Ultimate frisbee players
Juranová, Magdalena ; Medková, Kristina (advisor) ; Honců, Pavla (referee)
The main objective of this bachelor thesis is to describe coordination and the load distribution between the limbs of Ultimate frisbee (UF) players. We evaluate postural coordination (PC) in the following situations: tests in tension compared with tests in compression, tests with or without eye control. We evaluate the weight distribution between lower limbs (LL) and between upper limbs (UL) too. Methods: 20 volunteers enrolled in the study. They were the best national-level players represented by both sexes and aged 20-43 (average age is 31 years). The measurement was performed on the Imoove 300. The entry criteria were: active career in UF of at least 3 years, without serious illnesses (neurological, internal), surgery or injury (muscle rupture, fracture). Each player passed 12 DLC (dynamic life control) tests of Check Up mode. The following instrument set-up options were combined in the tests: type of standing position (stand straddling, PILL (pivot lower limb) step, LLL (lunge lower limb) step); test with eye control test (EC) or test with no eye control (NEC); test in tension or test in compression. The data was tested with a single Wilcoxon test. Results: At a statistical significance level of 0.05, it was shown that in the following assays, PC was better with visual control than without it:...
