Podrazil, Tomáš ; Horčic, Josef (advisor) ; Kovářová, Lenka (referee)
Title: Comparison of the heart rate values and external performance is based on selected field tests determining maximal heart rate in cycling of cyclist and triathletes Objectives: Objective of thesis is to determine the values of maximal heart rate and external performance from selected field tests in cycling and compare them with one another. Methods: Three cyclist were measured in field tests and acquired results were used to create the graphs and tables. Data were obtained by cycling performance meter Powertap and cycle computer Garmin Edge 500. For the analysis of the measured data was used software TrainigsPeaks.com Results: Based on the results of thesis it can be stated, that the measurement turn out as we expected. The difference of maximal heart rate between test-A and test-B is differed by 3-5 beats, which is not decisive. Both tests can be used for determine maximal heart rate. These tests are suitable for measuring the performance of athletes. Maximal heart rate is not in present an important indicator for training of fitness of individual. For training I would suggest to take a test of lactate curve in the laboratory. Keywords: cycling, external performance, heart rate, terrain test, Powertap

Gerčáková, Daniela ; Bílý, Milan (advisor) ; Kovářová, Lenka (referee)
Title: Comparison of selected anthropometric parameters of competitive quadrathletes and racing kayakers. Objectives: The aim of this work is to assess the somatotype and anthropometric characteristics in elite athletes in marathon kayakers and quadrathletes. Methods: This research included the analysis and comparison of two groups of athletes. Using the Heath-Carter system of measurement, somatotypes were calculated using the computer formula, 'Somatotype - Calculation and Analysis'. Body composition was determined through the use of skinfold calipers SK in conjunction with noninvasive bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA). Specifically, the Tanita 980 MS and BIA 2000 measurement units. Results: Two research samples were developed (speed kayakers as one, quadrathletes as the other), whose results (set average) were compared. On the basis of anthropometric data and calculations, it was found that both research samples corresponded in their somatotype category, ectomorphic mesomorph. According to this research, the speed kayakers (with a focus on marathon distances), are generally taller and heavier than the quadrathlete sample, yet had relatively less body fat. Keywords: Somatotype, body composition, BIA, skinfold, quadrathlon, flatwater kayaking

Kovářová, Lenka ; Macek, Petr (advisor) ; Prahl, Roman (referee)
The church of St. Gothard in Český Brod is one of the most important sights in this town. This Bachelor's thesis is concerned with its history, construction history and collection of architectural projects for the church. The first considerable rebuilding of the original gothic basilica was in 1613 and the second one in the second half of the 18th century, when it obtained a new late-baroque front facade and tower. The author of the baroque rebuilding is an architect Jan Josef Wirch. In the Podlipanské muzeum in Český Brod is deposited a collection of plans, which projected an unrealized regothization of church from an architect František Mikš and Vojtěch Heim, project for reconstruction and painting decoration of the church for realized rebuilding in 1912-13 and plans of look of the church in 1905 from a builder Jan Hola.
