Title: The effect of "brain gym" exercise on tennis players' postural stability Aims: The aim of this diploma thesis is to find out whether "brain gym" exercise completed for 30 days has an impact on tennis players' postural stability Summary: Altogether 12 women, 18-30 year olds, participated in the pilot study. The probands had completed a 30-day exercise intervention program which included a daily exercise for a maximum of 10 minutes. The postural stability was measured before and after the intervention using Neurocom Smart EquiTest System (Sensory Organization Test, Motor Control Test, Limits of Stability) and Standing Stork Test which evaluace the ability to balance vertically on the tip of one lower limb. The measured data were processed by the program Neurocom Data Analyzer, from which the data were subsequently transferred to Microsoft Excel 2010, SPSS 2007 and GPower 2019. To evaluate the effect of intervention the statistical methods - Shapiro-Wilk test, Student's paired t-test, Wilcoxon test were used and Cohen's d was used to determine clinical significance. The level of statistical significance was determined to α = 0,05, when p < 0,05 - statictical significance, p > 0,05 - statistical insignificance. The values of clinical significance were set to: high significance - d > 0,80, medium...
