Using TMG to diagnose muscle imbalances in Jumping
Burgetová, Dominika ; Šteffl, Michal (advisor) ; Kolbová, Kateřina (referee)
Title: Using TMG to diagnose muscle imbalances in Jumping Objectives: The aim of this work was to define a hypothesis about the relation of training load in jumping and muscle imbalances in selected muscle groups using the tensiomyograph TMG and bioimpedance InBody 720. Methods: The bachelor thesis has the character of qualitative research. In particular, five case studies have been carried out, emphasizing the detection of characteristic muscle imbalances that could arise from the training load in Jumping. The tensiomicrograph TMG 100 and bioimpedance InBody 720 were used to measure muscle imbalances. Results: Based on the measurement of five participants, muscle imbalances were found primarily in the gastrocnemicus lateralis, semitendinosus and tibialis anterior. In functional symmetry the most frequently imbalances were found in the ankle muscle groups where tibialis anterior was compared against gastrocnemicus lateralis and gastrocnemicus medialis, and subsequently the imbalances in the legs where gastrocnemicus lateralis and medialis were compared against vastus lateralis and medialis. We also found functional imbalances in the knee where the biceps femoris muscle acted against vastus lateralis, vastus medialis and rectus femoris.

Unilateral functional asymmetry of forearm muscles in sport climbers
Palacký, Vít ; Baláš, Jiří (advisor) ; Hráský, Pavel (referee)
Title: Unilateral functional asymmetry of forearm muscles in sport climbers Objectives: The aim of the study is to evaluate the impact of experienced strain injury of forearm muscles on maximal isometric strength ratios between the flexors and extensors of the fingers in sport climbers. Methods: People were in two groups, twelve people in each of them. In the first group were the climbers after the strain injuries of forearm muscles (earlier than in last 3 months). In the second group were the climbers without these injuries. The dynamometer MIE Medical in Laboratory of sport motoric FTVS UK was used for the method. The maximal value of isometric strength of flexors and extensors of the fingers was measured. For the analysis of the results was used the unpaired t-test for unequal sample sizes with equal variances. Results: The climbers with experienced forearm muscle injury had statistically not significant higher maximal isometric strength ratios between flexors and extensors of the fingers. Higher values of maximal isometric strength of finger flexor muscles were measured in climbers with injuries in anamnesis and the lower values of maximal isometric strength of finger extensor muscles. These two differences were not statistically significant too. Keywords: muscle asymmetry - isometric strength...
