Differences in the eating habits of rowers and crossfit athletes
Kadlecová, Nikola ; Vilikus, Zdeněk (advisor) ; Petráková Doležalová, Radka (referee)
The theme of this thesis is sports diet. It is divided into two parts. A theoretical part explains balanced died. It describes the mechanics of energy generation during physical activity and the characteristics of rowing and Crossfit. The focus is on diet in those disciplines. Based on the theoretical foundation is build a practical part, where the statistical data are analyzed and evaluated. The goal of this thesis is to discover, whether there is a difference between rower's and Crossfit athlete's diets. To find out, specialized questionaries about eating habits have been used. Sixteen sportsmen/sportswomen have filled the questionaries. Based upon collected data about their intake of selected nutrients in the last month, there were no statistically significant differences in energy income, protein consumption (neither animal nor plant-based), amount of fruit and vegetables, fatty acid spectrum nor added sugar income. The data have nonetheless indicated differences, eg. Crossfitters tend to have higher animal protein consumption and lower intake of fruit. Key words: crossfit, eating habits, nutrition, rowing, sport diet

The most common difficulties in rowing - analysis and possibilities of prevention and compensation
Neuhortová, Kristýna ; Pavlů, Dagmar (advisor) ; Pánek, David (referee)
Title: The most common difficulties in rowing - analysis and possibilities of prevention and compensation Objectives: The main goal of this diploma thesis is to evaluate the most common difficulties and damage to the musculoskeletal system in rowers in the Czech Republic aged 15 to 40 years. Another goal is to evaluate the possible causes and risk factors of individual problems and damage, their treatment and prevention. Methods: In this diploma thesis, the methods of literary research and the method of written questioning were used. The method of literary research was used to gain knowledge about the issue of rowing in domestic and foreign literature. The method of written questioning was used to find out data concerning the most common problems and damage to the musculoskeletal system, their prevention and treatment. Results: Difficulties or damage to the musculoskeletal system are reported by 108 probands (49,54 % of respondents). A total of 252 difficulties or damage to the musculoskeletal system were recorded in rowers. The most common problem of rowers is muscle damage (18,15 % of all problems). The most common problems are located in the forearms and wrists (24,27 % of all problems), lumbar spine (23,01 % of all problems) and knee joint (17,16 % of all problems). The research confirmed only...

Rédr, Andre ; Bílý, Milan (advisor) ; Lukš, Josef (referee)
Title: The Comparison of Results of Diagnostic Methods of Anaerobic Thresholds in Rowing Aims: The aim of the work is to compare the most used diagnostic methods of anaerobic thresholds on a rowing machine. Methods: This diploma thesis is a quantitative empirical research. To compare diagnostic data was used the Concept 2 rowing machine. The rowing machine was also used as an instrument for evaluation of five types of test methods for the anaerobic threshold diagnostics and the sixth control test, respectively. Exanimated functional values were determined using a HR monitor Garmin Fenix 6 and a Lactate scout lactometer. Exponential regressions in MS Excel were used to evaluate lactate curve tests. The homogeneous sample group consisted of 10 club rowers (n = 10). Results: We used basic statistical methods for data analysis, paired t-test, and correlation analysis (Pearson's correlation coefficient). Comparing the functional values of the monitored diagnostics, we found that the descending time protocol of the lactate curve was the most accurate methods of anaerobic threshold diagnostics for the control twenty-minute test. The compared functional values of other tests against the control test showed a statistically significant variation at the level of significance p ≤ 0.05. Other used methods of...

Nutrition at sports with weight categories
Žabová, Anna ; Vilikus, Zdeněk (advisor) ; Tuka, Vladimír (referee)
This bachelor thesis is focused on diets in sports with weight categories. The main goal is to find out about the diets of the professional athletes before the official weighting, what methods of weight reduction these athletes use and whether they experience any negative effects of the diet on their health. Theoretical part focuses on the information about weight categories, nutrition recommendations for particular athletes, forms of weight reduction and human body composition analysis. The practical part is divided into two researches. The first research is carried out in the form of a quantitative questionnaire, in which the respondents provide information on dietary habits and their presence in the weight category. The second research focuses on five light-weight rowers, whose body composition information is compared in the non-competitive and competitive period. The questionnaire has been filled in by 103 competitors from 9 different sports with weight categories. Some outputs are quite worrying, or even alarming. Only less than one third of the respondents races in their category without major weight fluctuations or greater dietary restrictions. Comparing the data from both measurements of the body composition of the athlete (out of season and before the race) turned out as expected with only...

Impact of inspiratory muscle training on the cardiopulmonary system of elite rowers.
Procházková, Sára ; Procházka, Michal (advisor) ; Smolíková, Libuše (referee)
This thesis focuses on the physiological and biomechanical relation between rowing and function of the respiratory system. The theoretical part summarizes various possibilities of using the inspiratory muscle training, primarily on accessible information about its use during elite rowers preparation. The thesis contains three case studies of elite female rowers who followed the inspiratory muscle training according to Volianitis's et al. methodology from 2001. Changes in performance of simulated rowing race and in PImax were monitored. Despite the insufficient compliance of prescribed training, we see an improvement of the observed parameters.
