Somatotype comparison of current UK FTVS students and UK FTVS students forty years ago
Zapala, Michal ; Honsová, Šárka (advisor) ; Kovářová, Lenka (referee)
Title: Somatotype comparison of current UK FTVS students and UK FTVS students forty years ago. Objectives: Main aim of the theses is to compare the current level of student's somatic prerequisites to successful performance studies at UK FTVS in comparison with the somatic level of students studied forty years ago. Another aim of the theses is to illustrate method for measuring body fat by calliper. Subject and Methods: The total set consists of 901 somatotypes of students UK FTVS. Somatotypes were processed from protocols on the results of measurements, which contains the components values of somatotype and somatic parameters necessary for their determination. Processed values of somatotype were compared through statistical processes and through somatocharts. The illustration was created with a pencil simply in a lines with a minimal of shading. Results: Endomorphic components of somatotypes increased in a comparation with a set of students who studied fourty years ago. Higher values could have result in difficulties with fulfilment of practical credit requirements of endurance skills. Conversely mesomorphic components are lower against second set of students. It may result in difficulties with fulfilment of practical credit requirements of power skills. Keywords: somatotype, retrospective study,...
Comparison of somatotypes in long and short triathlon
Jordán, Daniel ; Kovářová, Lenka (advisor) ; Kinkorová, Ivana (referee)
Title: Somatotype Comparison in Short Distance and Long Distance Triathlon Objectives: The goal is to determine the somatotype of triathletes competing in half ironman distance triathlons with triathletes competing in short distance triathlons. Methods: The Heath and Carter method was used for measuring the anthropometric parameters. The gained data were used in specific equations to calculate each of the three somatotype compoments. The anthropometric measurements involved participants of the Czechman Tour races. Results: By gaining appropriate anthropometric data, the average somatotype of triathletes competing in half distance events (2,1 - 4,4 - 2,9) falls into the category of ectomorphic mesomorph, whereas the somatotype of competitors in short distance events (2,1 - 4,4 - 2,9) falls into the category of mesomorphic ectomorphs. Keywords: somatotype, triathlon, body type, the Heath and Carter method
Compared somatotypes junior triathletes between 1998 and 2018

1 Abstract Title: Somatotype comparison of junior triathletes between years 1998 and 2018 Objectives: The goal is to determine the somatotype of junior triathletes in 2018 and to compare the results with junior triathletes from 1998. Methods: For measuring of the anthropometric parameters was used as a method for somatotype determination by Heath and Carter. The gained data were used in specific equations to calculate each compoment. The anthropometric measurements involved five male junior triathletes and six female junior triathletes of Czech selection from the Youth sports centers. Results: By gaining appropriate anthropometric data, the average somatotype of junior male triathletes was set (1,75 - 3,55 - 4,15) and female junior triathletes (2,29 - 2,98 - 3,88). The average of both groups falls to category ectomorphic mesomorph, while the somatotype of the junior triathletes from 1998 (1,96 - 4,35 - 3,14) belongs to category mesomorphic ectomorph.
