Analysis of the influence of ski training in the first year of the study program PE and Sport at high altitude on the selected students' fitness requirements
KŘÍŽENECKÝ, Daniel
This thesis analyzes the physical predispositions of students from the first grade of the physical education who attended a ski course. This course took place in France. This fact is quite important for the thesis because the course took place in a higher altitude. The main aim of the thesis is to compare results of tested probands before and after the course. At first, there was an information meeting where we provided more information about the aim of this thesis and about the testing. After this meeting we went to KTVS laboratory where the first measuring happened. After that all probands and other students left for the ski course to France for a week. The accommodation was in an Alpe d´Huez center which is situated 1860 meters and the highest point of it which is 3330 meters above the sea level. Probands were practicing in very high altitude all week. In this thesis we also look at how hard it is to work in this altitude, what kind of advantages and disadvantages it might have and which danger might come up. It is also necessary to think about the process of how probands should prepare themselves not to underestimate anything. The second measuring happened after the return to the Czech Republic. It also took place in KTVS laboratory. After the measuring we started analyzing all measured data of probands. We compared this data. After that we realised what this course brought to the students. We wanted to know what happens in following parts: body composition, Wingate test, spiroergometry and spirometry. In each part we were interested in some specific parameters that are related to this topic. We included specific parameters like: body fat, muscle mass, body water, maximum performance, average performance, maximum 5 seconds performance, fatigue index, VO2max, oxygen pulse, minute respiratory volume and vigorous vital capacity.

Sukovič, Richard ; Jindra, Matouš (advisor) ; Brtník, Tomáš (referee)
EFFECT OF DIFFERENT SIZES OF WHEELS OF IN-LINE SKATES ON ENERGY EXPENDITURE Objectives: The aim of this bachelor thesis is to determine the difference in energy expenditure when using different sizes of wheels of in-line skates. Methods: The research group consisted of 5 people in age 26,4 ± 2,2 years. This was an experiment. The calculation of energy expediture was based on the amount of oxygen consumption (VO2) and exhaled carbon dioxide (VCO2), i.e. indirect calorimetry. For the analysis of respiratory gases MetaMax 3B measuring device was used. Three sizes of wheels of the same hardness were tested. The rides were carried out on a 1,5 km section of a cycle path with the effect of the height difference of 2 mm/m. Probands completed one test ride (with a cadence of 70 rpm) on each size set of wheels. Test ride lasted for 5 minutes. For results were processed values of 3 minutes steady state VO2. Results: We found out a noticeable difference in energy output between 72 mm and 90 mm large wheels. The difference between driving on 72 mm and 80 mm large wheels and driving on 80 mm and 90 mm large wheels was, due to the standard error of measurement, insignificatnt. Conclusion: The energy expenditure reached a noticeable increase in driving with a larger diameter of wheels compared to driving on...

Title: Determining the relationship of spiroergometric testing on the canoe ergometer and in canoe sprint by elite competitors. Objectives: The aim of the study was to determine the relationship between the results of aerobic exercise diagnostics in canoeing and on the canoe ergometer by Czech national team members in canoe sprint. Methods: Within our study we tried to find out and compare the physiological response of two functional load exercise diagnostics in canoeing and on the canoe ergometer. To obtain the functional values of physiological indicators in both tests we used mobile spiroergometric equipment Cortex Metamax 3B and sport tester Polar RS 800. Results: Testing canoeists paddling on flat water reached the following average functional values: maximal heart rate (HR) 181 min-1 (±3,9), maximal values of blood lactate (LA) 8,04 ml.l-1 (±1,6), maximal oxygen consumption (VO2max) 51,6 ml.kg.min-1 (±6,7), maximal ventilation (VEmax) 140,2 l.min-1 (±26,5), respiratory rate (RR) 51 min-1 (±3,7), metabolic load (Rmax) 1,14 (±0,07) and anaerobic threshold (ANT) 166 (±7,2). When paddling the canoe ergometer, they reached the average maximum values: maximal heart rate (HR) 181 min-1 (±5,2), maximal values of blood lactate (LA) 9,1 mmol.l-1 (±2,9), maximal oxygen consumption (VO2max) 56,4...

Kopecká, Anežka ; Radvanský, Jiří (advisor) ; Tetřevová, Lenka (referee)
The aim of the study was to compose and realize physiotherapeutic program for children with congenital heart disease to improve their postural-respirational function and to assess the influence of this program on cardiopulmonary functions of the patients. Our group had five patients with mean age of 15,6 years. Each of them underwent initial examination of the motor system, spirometry and spiroergometric exercise test. Physiotherapeutic program consisted of 8 individual therapies and home-based exercise. Therapy was composed from manual techniques, exercise according to Dynamic neuromuscular stabilisation concept and exercise with inspiratory trainer and improvised PEP system. The final examination was performed in the same manner as the initial one. We compared the results of both examinations, but we found no significant improvement after the physiotherapeutic program.

Title: Determining the relationship of spiroergometric examination of sprint canoe competitors while paddling and at the arm crank ergometer. Objectives: The aim of this thesis was to investigate the relationship between functional indicators of aerobic exercise diagnostics on sprint canoe and at the arm crank ergometr. Methods: To obtain the data, we used a standardized stress test for arm crank ergometr. To to measure flatwater canoists while paddling, the spiroergonomic examination with the same stress protocol was used.The devices used during both experiments were sporttester Polar RS 800 and Cortex Metamax 3B device. To detect the functional relationships of measured values the correlation analysis was used.The degree of dependence was determined by Pearson correlation coefficient. Results: Total average difference between the values measured at arm crank ergometr and while paddling at sprint canoe was 2,13%. Correlation analysis showed a strong dependence in 4 of the 7 monitored fiction pointers: VO2 (r = 0,873), VO2max (r = 0,972), tidal volume (r = 0,775) and pulmonary ventilation (r = 0,786). As for the three remaining indicators; respiratory rate (r = -0,023), lactic acid (r = -0,08) and heart rate (r = -0,275) there was no statistically significant difference. Key words: Crank...

VONDRUŠKOVÁ, Jana
In this Bachelor Thesis, the author is focused on the observation of top athletes in 800 m, 1,500 m and 3,000 m runs. The thesis was based on the comparison of racing performance with the results of laboratory tests. The purpose of the work was to predict the performance in certain disciplines based on predetermined tests. We used the content analysis, content synthesis, and measurement method to select the data. We used the measurement method to determine the results from the laboratory. The laboratory tests we used were spiroergometry, spirometry, body composition test, and Wingate test. Then we processed the data using material significance. For significance, we used the Sperman's correlation coefficient. We have defined materiality by Cohen´s d. In the end of the work, we determined the connection between the performance of athletes in 800 and their results from Wingate test, as well as some connection of performances at athletes in 1 500 m, 3 000 m and their results from the spiroergometry test.

Title: Effect of different types of bicycle tires on energy expenditure Objectives: The aim of this bachelor thesis is to determine the difference in energy expenditure when using different types of bicycle tires. Methods: The research group consisted of 5 males in age 26,4 ± 2,2 years. This was an experiment. The calculation of energy expediture was based on the amount of oxygen consumption (VO2) and exhaled carbon dioxide (VCO2), i.e. indirect calorimetry. For the analysis of respiratory gases MetaMax 3B measuring device was used. Three types of bicycle tires were tested. The test ride was carried out in laboratory on the cycling rollers. Probands completed one test ride (with a cadence of 80 rpm) on each type of tires. Test ride lasted on average 4:55 ± 1:50 min. For results were processed values of 4 minutes steady state VO2. Results: We found out the significant difference in energy expenditure between ride with road tires and ride with Fat Bike tires, and also between ride with trekking tires and ride with Fat Bike tires. The difference between ride with road and trekking tires was, due to the standard error of measurement, insignificant. Conclusion: The energy expenditure reached a significant increase while using tires with the largest contact patch compared to using tires with the smallest...
