Zvoníček, Matěj ; Gryc, Tomáš (advisor) ; Bujnovský, David (referee)
Title: Profile of youth footballers as goalkeepers Objectives: The objective of this study was to compare selected parameters of body composition, level of static postural stability and level of lower extremities explosive strength between male and female goalkeepers in soccer and between selected age categories. Methods: A total of 33 male (n = 22) and female (n = 11) soccer goalkeepers participated in the study. They were divided into six test groups based on gender and age category (14-15, 16- 17 and 18-19 years) for performance assessment. These groups were assessed for basic anthropometric data (body height and weight), body composition parameters (% body fat, fat free mass), and level of static postural stability (deviations of the total center of pressure path) in four types of stands (narrow stand open eyes/closed eyes, right/left lower limb stand) and lower extremities explosive strength (jump height, relative force impulse, relative maximum force produced) in four types of jumps (counter movement jump free arms, counter movement jump, squat jump, drop jump). We used a Tanita MC-980MA bioimpedance device (Tanita Corporation, Japan) to assess body composition parameters, a Footscan pressure plates (RSscan International, Belgium) to assess postural stability, and a KISTLER 8611 force plates...

Pekárková, Nikol ; Gryc, Tomáš (advisor) ; Dragounová, Zuzana (referee)
Name: The influence of shooting technique on its accuracy and ball speed in floorball players Goal: The purpose of the work was to verify the procedure for testing the shooting level of male and female floorball players and then to identify and describe the differences in the parameters of ball speed and shooting accuracy between four different types of shots (pull, wrist, golf, hammer) when shooting at two different locations (top and down). Methods: The research group consisted of 2 male and 2 female floorball players of the highest youth competition. Ball speed was measured using a Stalker Solo2 radar device and 2D video analysis using a SONY video camera and TEMA software was used to analyze accuracy. The individual targets for shooting were marked out using holes in the training sheet, which was placed on the floorball goal. The goal was 4 meters away from the shooting spot, and players shot at the goal in random order of shot types and target location. Data were evaluated in MS Excel. A two- sample T-test (p <0.05) was used to express the difference between individual shot types, target location and between men and women. Results: We found significant differences in ball speed: between the pull shot and the wrist, between the wrist and the golf ball, and between the golf ball and the putter....

Hoščálková, Julie ; Gryc, Tomáš (advisor) ; Carboch, Jan (referee)
Title: Kinematics of the full swing in non-handicapped and handicapped golfers with specific disabilities. Objectives: The aim of the thesis was to investigate, analyse and describe the difference in the execution of the full golf swing between a handicapped player and a player without disability limitations. Methods: A sample of 1 able-bodied and 1 handicapped golfer with similar performance was used to investigate the full swing kinematics using the CODA Motion system 3D kinematic analysis and the BodiTrak pressure plate. Specifically, the difference in execution between the players in selected parameters was evaluated. The obtained data were processed in LibreOffice Calc software. T-test for independent samples and Cohen's d were used to determine the statistical and substantive significance of the differences. Results: Statistical and substantive significance of the difference in the execution of the full swing between able-bodied and handicapped players was found (p < 0,01, d > 0,8). Nevertheless, the overall results of the shots were not that different. Keywords: tests, performance, movement, impact factors, analysis

Samková, Eva ; Gryc, Tomáš (advisor) ; Šteffl, Michal (referee)
Title: Influence of Altitude on Physiological Parameters in Snowboardcross Athletes Objectives: The aim of the study was to investigate the effect of altitude and working load on selected physiological parameters (blood lactate concentration, mitochondrial respiration, muscle blood flow and heart rate) in elite snowboardcross riders. Methods: For data collection we used Moxy monitor, Garmin chest belt and EKF Lactate Scout+. The physiological parameters were assessed at two different altitudes and always before and after the sports exercise. The obtained data were then compared and their differences assessed using the statistical method paired t-test, basic statistical and mathematical methods such as mean and standard deviation and percentages were used to express the difference. Results: We found that altitude does not affect mitochondrial respiration or blood flow in lower limb muscles in snowboardcrossers. Furthermore, we found that altitude has an effect on blood lactate concentration and confirmed the so-called lactate paradox. Heart rate was slightly higher after exercise at higher altitude than at lower altitude. Keywords: Oxygen saturation, heart rate, lactate concentration, testing, altitude
