Barthelová, Petra ; Nováková, Pavlína (advisor) ; Hráský, Pavel (referee)
Title: The influence of health and compensation training programme on body posture on women 14-16, who are actively participating in sports aerobics Objectives: The main goal of this research is to find out the created effect of compensating programe on body posture on girls adolescents who actively participate in sports aerobics. Methods: This is a quasi-experiment using the research method of a case study. The effect of the 6-week therapeutic physical education program was tasted on 3 people with upper crossed syndrome. There were 6 girls between 14 and 16 years. The probes were divided into an experimental group and a control group. The therapeutic physical education program lasted 6 week, two times a week for 20 minutes and included balancing and breathing exercises. The methods of data collection at the entrance and exit examinations were kinesiological analysis of posture with aspects from the front, side and back. Photographs taken before the start of the ZTV program and after the rehearsal of the ZTV program were used for documentation. Results: After a 6-week intervention, 2 of the 3 probands who completed the ZTV program showed a significant and obvious improvement in posture in the upper torso. Compared to the control group, the ZTV program met its goal, as the posture in the upper torso...

Muscle imbalances on people visiting fitness facilities in the age of 18 to 25
PRŮDKOVÁ, Lucie
This bachelor thesis refers on muscular imbalances of regular fitness facilities visitors in the age of 18 to 25. Muscle imbalances could be built on basis of wrong technique and overusing specific body parts during exercising. Nowadays especially young people have their physical look as their priority result of visiting a gym. Due that they usually focus just on one or two body parts during all of their actual gym sessions. First part of the thesis explains the term fitness and young adults view on exercising. Next parts consist of spinal kinesiology, posture and muscle imbalances, followed by information about examination and therapy. The goal of this project was to determine muscular imbalances of bodybuilders. The following goal was to create an exercise session which will help them to get rid of these muscle imbalances. Research was conducted along regular visitors of Fitness Centre Pouzar in České Budějovice. Six respondents in total took a part in the research. History taking and kinesiology analysis was used for collection of data before the therapy. Respondents were divided in two groups where the first half of them received set exercise program and the second half did not get anything to follow. Duration of exercise program testing was approximately two months. After this period each of the groups were analysed and compared again. There was found a significant improvement of muscle imbalances of the first group with set up program compared to the second group without any specified program. This bachelor thesis can be helpful for health professionals as well as for public. The aim of the research is to extend the knowledge of exercising in fitness facilities and prevention of muscular imbalances due to wrong habits in exercising.

Muscle imbalance in students of physiotherapy
ČURDOVÁ, Aneta
The muscle imbalance is a phenomenon which was first described by professor Janda. Some muscles have a tendency to shorten themselves, others to loose strength. The consequence of these tendencies is a formation of imbalances which may negatively affect motion senses as well as a whole motion apparatus. Predisposing the formation of muscle dysbalance is predestined by the superiority of tonic or phase fibers in the individual muscle groups. The disruption of coordination between muscles can lead to a formation of problems with motoric apparat. Postural changes and functioning problems can be deepened with lowering of deep stabilization as well as with inappropriate ergonomics. The physiotherapist often deals with patient's muscle imbalances, but that doesn't mean he can avoid the formation of these imbalances in his own body. The physical requirement for this kind of job demands the right ergonomics of work which lowers the risks. The advantage of physiotherapist is in his theoretical and practical knowledge, which he can apply on his own body, balance the muscle groups in his body and thus eliminate the risk of formation of functional problems and painful conditions. The main goal of this work was to map the occurrence of muscle imbalances in the selected group of students of the physiotherapy. The second goal was to suggest some precautions that would help to avoid the functional problems caused by the muscle imbalances. The study was focused on students of the first year of the physiotherapy discipline on the South Bohemia University. There were 37 participants from whom there were 33 women and 4 men. Due to the specific focus on the muscle imbalances the only muscles that were examined were shortened muscles and weakened muscles in connection with the quality of involvement into the motion stereotypes and also hypermobility. Due to the fact that muscle imbalances and functional disorders are closely related to the quality of the stabilization system and breath there was also evaluated the breathing stereotype and the ability to activate the diaphragm. The occurrence of the painful areas in muscles was mapped by the palpation examination. The students were asked targeted questions in order to find out if any of them had regular problems with for example backache, knees and so on and if they had an accident or underwent a surgery of the motion system. The students were also asked about the sports activity, if they do these sports on regular basis and which kind of sports they do specifically. For a complete evaluation of the student's endurance they were marked with the BMI index, the WHR index and the Ruffier index. In almost all cases there were some sorts of imbalances. In the evaluation of the upper body imbalances (upper crossed syndrome to be exact) there were only 2 students who didn't have this dysbalance. On the contrary there were 10 students with all sorts of imbalances and thus the upper cross syndrome was proved. In the evaluation of the lower body imbalances (lower crossed syndrome) all students had some kind of dysbalance, but there were only three students with proven lower cross syndrome. From the evaluation of the breathing types and diaphragm tests was proven that only eight students can activate diaphragm and diaphragmatic breathing. Due to positive occurrence of some kind of muscle imbalances in every student's body it was recommended to accept some sort of precautions. But these precautions can't be used universally, because every combination of different imbalances requires individual approach. This work can be used by professionals as well as by students of physiotherapy. This work can also be extended by another research which would compare the results with, for example, the occurrence of imbalances in higher classes of physiotherapy or in another discipline.

The influence of kinetic activity on correct body posture
MÍKOVÁ, Jiřina
Purpose of my graduation thesis is to find out the influence of a targeted physical activity upon formation of a correct posture habit by pupils of sekunda and tercie at a multiannual high school Česko-anglické gymnázium in České Budějovice. There were 34 probands participating in the research and devided into two groups, experimental and checking, where as both groups counted 17 probands. Both groups were put under an entering test that analysed posture according to Jaroš and Lomíček, shuttle run 4 x 10 metres, which specially tests fitness, and tests for shortened and weakened muscles. Classes of health PE with the experimental group took place under my leading in the following six weeks. The checking group continued with ordinary PE according to the school curriculum under leading of it{\crq}s school teacher. After aforesaid six weeks took place a check out measurement idetical with the entering test. In the entering test 88% of pupils in experimental group had correct posture and 12% had poor posture while 94% pupils of the checking group had correct posture and 6% had poor posture. After six weeks of exercising with the experimental group had 94% of pupils in the check out test correct posture and 6% had excellent posture. 88% of the checking group had in the check out test correct posture and 12% had poor posture. The outcomes displayed that it is possible to improve a posture habit under an influence of a targeted physical activity.

An importance of the muscular imbalance in the context of functional disorders of the spine
JOZOVÁ, Kateřina
ABSTRACT A topic of my thesis is an importance of the muscular imbalance in the context of functional disorders of the spine. The topic has been very up-to-date, because a large proportion of the population suffers from vertebral disorders of functional nature, which are just caused by muscular imbalances. A goal of the first part of the thesis was a theoretic analysis of the problem of muscular imbalances and functional disorders of the spine. A content of that chapter is an introduction to anatomy, kinesiology of an axial skeleton and pathogenesis of the muscular imbalances and functional disorders of the spine. Then it contains information about diagnostic and therapeutic procedures at those disorders. The goal of the research part was to map effects of a long-term exposure of muscular imbalance to the skeletal structures of the spine using standard examination methods of physiotherapy and also to evaluate an efficiency of influencing the imbalances and functional disorders of the spine with standard and alternative therapeutic approaches. For the research part of the thesis I chose a method of the qualitative research. The sample has consisted of three patients who attended a rehabilitation clinic at Hospital in České Budějovice. All three were treated for an incurred muscular imbalance and functional disorders of the spine. The tested sample was monitored for several months and results were processed in a form of case study. The patients learned principles how to deal with those disorders effectively and to implement preventive measures against their emergence. There came about the alleviation or minimisation of the muscular imbalance and about a retreat of a large part of functional blocks of the spine using different ways of treatments at all the patients. Also functions of a deep stabilization system of the spine were improved as well as statics and dynamics of the spine. Consequences caused by a long-term exposure of muscular imbalance were mapped and an effectiveness of the selected therapy was evaluated. This thesis could be used for the purposes of the study of future physiotherapists and also as an information material for patients suffering from muscular imbalances and functional disorders of the spine and in the prevention of those disorders.
