Plintová, Ester ; Kovářová, Lenka (advisor) ; Daďová, Klára (referee)
TITLE OF THESIS: Analysis of postural functions and posture in triathletes aged 10-15 years. OBJECTIVES OF THESIS: The aim of this work is to analyze the condition of the musculoskeletal system and posture in triathletes aged 10-15 years and based on that to create a health compensation program and then verify and be able to objectify the main musculoskeletal problems, recommend and provide remedies. METHODS USED: In my diploma thesis I used in testing the level of motor skills tests tested by CTA for the age group of triathletes 8-15 years and then I compared them according to the table determining the level of assumptions using T-points. I used a ray graph to summarize the average results of the group. I tested the analysis of postural functions and posture using physiotherapeutic tests according to the authors Jaroš and Lomíček, and I used Matthias' test as a supplement. During testing according to Jaroš and Lomíček, I used a plumb line, protractor and grid to make the evaluation as accurate as possible. During the physiotherapy measurements, I took photos and videos, thanks to which I was able to better identify postural defects, however they could not be presented in the diploma thesis. I recorded the individual results in tables. RESULTS: My research showed that regular application of a...

Name: Analysis of the current state of training records in triathlon Objectives: Find out the forms of collection, registration and analysis of training data among contemporary triathletes in Czech Republic. Methods: The method of searching domestic and foreign sources was used in the work to create a longitudinal overview of the forms of collection, registration and analysis of training from history to the present. Subsequently, research was conducted in the form of a questionnaire survey on a sample of triathletes in order to determine the actually used functions of these tools (Survio application, CAWI method). 184 respondents completed the survey (return rate 64.8%); 77.2% of men and 22.8% of women aged 37.2 ± 11.97 years. The research group was selected by purposeful selection among hobby and elite triathletes in Czech Republic (72% of hobby and 28% of elite). Results: The rate of using the electronic form of monitoring and recording data from training and competitions is higher for the elite group of triathletes. (elite 93,8%, hobby 81%). At the same time, this group monitors data in their training more often than in the race and uses the training plan more often than hobby triathletes. The advanced features offered by the applications are used almost identically by both groups. The use of...

Jordán, Daniel ; Kovářová, Lenka (advisor) ; Kinkorová, Ivana (referee)
1 Abstract Title: Somatotype comparison of junior triathletes between years 1998 and 2018 Objectives: The goal is to determine the somatotype of junior triathletes in 2018 and to compare the results with junior triathletes from 1998. Methods: For measuring of the anthropometric parameters was used as a method for somatotype determination by Heath and Carter. The gained data were used in specific equations to calculate each compoment. The anthropometric measurements involved five male junior triathletes and six female junior triathletes of Czech selection from the Youth sports centers. Results: By gaining appropriate anthropometric data, the average somatotype of junior male triathletes was set (1,75 - 3,55 - 4,15) and female junior triathletes (2,29 - 2,98 - 3,88). The average of both groups falls to category ectomorphic mesomorph, while the somatotype of the junior triathletes from 1998 (1,96 - 4,35 - 3,14) belongs to category mesomorphic ectomorph. Keywords: somatotype, triathlon, body type, the Heath-Carter method
Nutritional indicators of performance triathletes
Skuhrová, Tereza ; Vilikus, Zdeněk (advisor) ; Matoulek, Martin (referee)
This bachelor thesis is aimed to find out nutrition indicators of performance triathletes and to compare them with non-sportsmen. The next aim is to point out the importace of proper balanced diet in endurance sport and to evaluate the usage of food supplements. This thesis is divided into two parts, a theoretical part and a practical one. Main individual nutrients are described in the theoretical part in connection with energy metabolism and with emphasis on influence of nutrition in triathlon. The practical part summarizes results obtained from an analysis of a four-day nutritional intake of 8 performance triathletes and 8 non-sportsmen. A range of the respondents' age was between 26 and 37 years. The results point out that both groups have higher energy intake than recommended rate. Both groups' intakes of proteins and fats of animal origin are approximately twice higher than recommended as well as their results of micronutrient intake are not balanced. Furthermore, a brief questionnaire shows that 50 % of respondents were not satisfied how they can gain information about nutrition, at the same time 54 % use the internet as a main source of information and only 13 % read a scientific literature. Key words: triathlon, sports nutrition, endurance performance, food supplements, drinking regime

Teplá, Jana ; Kovářová, Lenka (advisor) ; Coufalová, Klára (referee)
Title: Dietary Habits during Long Triathlon Objectives: The main objective of this thesis is to prepare alternative diets from three selected manufacturers offering sports nutrition. Another objective was to ascertain the eating habits of triathletes during race in long triathlon, and their comparison. Methods: We carried out determination of the eating habits of triathletes via a survey. Eleven triathletes on various performance levels participated in the survey. We ascertained in particular the amount of kJ, carbohydrates and volume of liquids intake during a race, the average of kJ, carbohydrates and volume of liquids intake per 1 hour of the race, the average of carbohydrates intake per 1 kg of the racer weight and 1 hour of the race, and then we compared these data with the recommended values. According to the recommended values and products of selected manufacturers, we prepared three diets with a schedule so that they suited sportsmen of 80 kg in weight who can finish the race under 5 hours. Results: 2 racers complied with the recommended values of kJ intake, 5 racers exceeded these values and 4 racers did not reach the values. 4 racers complied with the recommended values of carbohydrates intake, whereas 2 racers exceeded these values and 5 racers did not reach the values. The two fastest...

Zikmund, Jan ; Kovářová, Lenka (advisor) ; Horčic, Josef (referee)
Tittle: Curve- fitting of the critical power in swimming for triathletes Objectives: Comparison of curve-fitting of the critical power at swimmers and triathletes in different performance categories. Methods: This thesis is based on a research. The research took place in laboratories FTVS UK and there was used the swimming simulator called Biokinetic for test measurements. Elite swimmers, triathletes and hobby triathletes participated in the tests. Sportsmen took part in 4 tests. The first test - 10 crawl strokes, the second test - 20 crawl strokes, the third test - 50 crawl strokes and the fourth test - 200 crawl strokes. The obtained data were worked out by using T-test and they were written into tables and charts in programs Excel and Word. There was used program PASW Statistics 18 for statistical processing. Results: It was discovered, that there were no differences in performances in tests by using Biokinetic between swimmers and triathletes. Hobby triathletes made the same performances as elite triathletes. The biggest difference in performances was at female hobby triathletes, who were worse than female elite triathletes and female swimmers. Keywords: Critical power, swimming, triathlon, Biokinetic, testing
