Theme: Morphofunctional characteristics and physical aktivity profile in Czech elite traceurs Aims: The aim of the work is to describe anthropometric and somatic characteristics and movement profile in elite Czech parkourists. Methods: The research group consisted of 20 men of the elite category of traceurs, (actively competing, n = 5, competing in community competitions, n = 8 and noncompetitors, n = 7). To obtain the necessary parameters, the following will be used: 1. parameters of body typology according to the somatotype methodology (Heath and Carter, 1967). 2. Parameters of body composition and bone health obtained from Dualenergy X-ray absorptiometers (DXA) according to Hologic methodology 3. Parameters of physical activity profile obtained from Actigraf GTX9 according to Actilife methodology. Results: The average somatotype of the evaluated traceurs was 1.8±0,7 - 4.9±0,9 - 3.0±0,7, which means classification into the category of ectomorphic mesomorphs and group B, characteristic of versatile gifted individuals. The traceurs' somatotypes were different with regard to their categorization. The highest values of the mesomorphic component were measured for the group of active competitors and the highest values of the ectomorphic component in the group of non-competitors. Parkourists had an...
