Dyrynková, Nikola ; Kaplan, Aleš (advisor) ; Vostatková, Pavlína (referee)
Thema works: Evaluation of body parameters and performance of elite word-class female hurdlers in the period 2003 - 2022 Aims: The main objective of this study is to compare and evaluate the accumulated results of female finalists in the 100 m hurdles from 2003 to the present, covering a period of 20 years, followed by a comparison of performances in the Olympic Games and world Championships. A secondary objective is to record basic body parameters (height, body weight and Body Mass Index) of the finalists in individual global sporting events (Olympic Games and world Championships). Methodology: We focused on comparing and evaluating the accumulated data of female finalists in the 100m hurdles from 2003 to 2022 in the World Championships and Olympic Games. From each World Championship and Olympic Games, we selected the finalists of the 100 m hurdles (the fastest 8 athletes). We collected information on the WCH, OH, times, rankings, and anthropometric characteristics (height, body weight, and Body Mass Index). Furthermore, we processed the data based on basic statistical characteristics, particularly mean, standard deviations, minimum and maximum values of the performances. We compared all of this data among each other. In the supplementary section, we created tables that serve as source data, while...

Comparison of support phase in the take-off to the hurdle and touch-down after hurdle clearance in disciplines 110 m hurdles and 400 m hurdles
Musil, Daniel ; Hojka, Vladimír (advisor) ; Kaplan, Aleš (referee)
Tittle (Thema works): Comparison of support phase in the take-off to the hurdle and touch- down after hurdle clearance in disciplines 110 m hurdles and 400 m hurdles Thesis'objectives: The objectives of the study are to identify differences in centre of pressure trajectory, in amount and distribution of pressure on foot during the take-off to the hurdle and touch-down after hurdle. This was measured on 110m (100m) and 400m tracks. Methods: Measurements were made with the help of Pedar-x system. Subjects were tested in three trials from the first hurdle to the third hurdle on 110m (100m) and 400m tracks. Hurdle with the shortest flight phase was later analyzed. Results: Difference in the take-off to the hurdle between 110m (100m) and 400m is in distribution of pressure and in centre of pressure trajectory only during the braking phase. Difference in distribution of pressure in touch-down after hurdle on 110m (100m) and 400m track was found between active and passive landing. The centre of pressure trajectory in touch-down after hurdle is longer on 400m track. Key words: hurdles, biomechanics, support phase, Pedar-x

Technique of Hurdle Clearing in 400 Meters Hurdles (Study Review)
Jakoubek, Jiří ; Kaplan, Aleš (advisor) ; Vindušková, Jitka (referee)
Title: Technique of Hurdle Clearing in 400 Meters Hurdles (Study Review) Authors: Jiří Jakoubek Supervisor: PhDr. Aleš Kaplan, Ph.D. Aims: The aim of this thesis is to describe technique of hurdle clearing in 400 meters hurdle race using study review and to examine this technique at particular athlete during training and racing sessions in 400 meters hurdles race. Methods: Technique was compared and examined at young athlete. Two kinograms were used for analysis, one from training and one from racing session. The comparison was made using third hurdle in second track. One hurdle clearance from each training and racing session was used, where individual phases from hurdle crossing were clearly visible. For better and well- arranged comparative analysis the same athlete was always examined. Technique of hurdle clearing was analysed using 3D kinematic analysis. The captured record was transmitted into appropriate format and elaborated in Kinovea program. For superior quality of presented snapshots program Corel photo-point 9.0 was used. Results: The analyzed athlete was found to have imperfect technique of hurdle clearing. Different quality of technique during training and racing sessions used for hurdle crossing was apparent at several points. Among the nodal points of proband's technique, which were...
