Author: Barbora Pšenková Title: Application of the plyometric method to develop maximum sprint speed Objectives: The aim of this thesis is to create a comprehensive literature search in the field of maximum speed development using plyometric method, followed by compiling a set of plyometric exercises and designing a plyometric training plan. Methods: The method of this work is literature search. Results: Based on the literature search, the theoretical foundations related to maximum speed and plyometrics were analyzed. The results of the literature search confirmed that plyometric training has a positive effect on maximum speed. Furthermore, the principles of creating and applying plyometric training were analyzed, leading to the compilation of a set of twelve plyometric exercises. These exercises were subsequently incorporated into an illustrative training plan, which, after customization according to the individual needs of the athlete, can be suitable for implementation in training practice. Keywords: plyometrics, strech-shortening cycle, speed training, sprint, maximum speed, performance optimization, training plan

Assessment of the level of technical skills of category U12 soccer players of different performance levels
Hodbod, Oliver ; Bujnovský, David (advisor) ; Kaplan, Aleš (referee)
the first league Czech academy (n = 14, age = 11.66 ± 0.25 years, height = 149.31 ± 6.2 cm, weight = 37.61 ± 4.8 kg). The second group included sub 11.50 ± 0.55, height = 149.31 ± 6.2 cm, weight = 37.61 ± 4.8 kg). Fourteen elite players (age 11.66 ± 0.3 years, height 149.31 ± 6.20 cm and weight 37.61 ± 4.82 elite players (age 11.50 ± 0.55, body height 152.36 ± 6.61 cm ght 38.91 ± 5.39 kg) were tested. The players completed field testing in

Nordic Walking and Nordic Running
Pokorný, Matyáš ; Hronzová, Marie (advisor) ; Kuhnová, Věra (referee)
The theoretical part deals with the characteristics of Nordic Walking and Nordic Running, which are modern physical activities based on walking and running, therefore the natural motions of humans, however, combined with significant movements of the arms and upper body as a result of the use of sticks. These activities require mastery of proper technique and selection of appropriate equipment, especially shoes and poles. Simultaneous involvement of upper and lower limbs along with the upper part body muscles leads to equal distribution of weight, respectively relieving joints, and to balanced physical training, which is reflected in increased demands on the circulatory and respiratory systems. The research part first examines the difference in heart rate of Nordic Walking and walking without poles. The observed differences are then compared with the results of other studies. According to our research the difference in heart rate is 13%, which is comparable with the results of the referential studies that came to the values of 14-16%. Another area of the research is to identify the maximum speed of Nordic Running and to determine the best time and the highest average speed of Nordic Running over a distance of 100 m. The maximum speed determined in the study is 22.1 km/hr., the best time for the 100 m is 18.0...
