Doping and doping controls in different sports
Vítek, Michal ; Pokorný, Ladislav (advisor) ; Svobodová, Irena (referee)
Sport as a kind of physical activity should, above all, be a way of entertainment for people. However, one cannot forget to mention the other aspects, which sport provides to people, whether from the point of view of health or psychology. It particularly concerns the improvement of both physical and mental form, prevention against health problems, relaxation, improvement of communication, cooperation etc. Sport has become a phenomena of these days. Shining careers, tremendous popularity and last but not least sometimes huge amounts of money offered to the best sportsmen lead to swindles as a matter of course. Nowadays, the desire for success can overcome the limits of fair play, and therefore a lot of sportsmen tend to the use of illegal aids in order to have an advantage over their rivals. In spite of that, doping is not the term only connected with top-performance sports, but also with recreation sports. Dope substances are used on all sporting levels at the present. The main aim of this work is to introduce readers to the problems of using dopes and their detection. The work describes the ways in which doping checks proceed, and in which sports and on which levels doping checks can be anticipated. Keywords Doping, blood tests, testing, doping controls , prohibited substances , prohibited metods...

Nožičková, Gabriela ; Nekola, Jaroslav (advisor) ; Voráček, Josef (referee)
Title: Nutritional supplements as permitted doping Objectives: The main goal of this thesis is to find out for what specific reasons users of additional resources are willing to invest their money in the purchase of supplements, and also what is the decisive factor in choosing a particular type of product. Methods: To find out the knowledge of people sports at a professional or amateur level in the field of nutritional supplements, the method of questionnaire sociological survey was used. This method was used in order to determine the awareness of athletes about this topic, their possible influence by advertising or product prices, and also to ensure the complete anonymity of respondents.

Reasons abuse and the influence of illegal substances in bodybuilding
DRAHOKOUPILOVÁ, Michaela
The topic of my bachelor thesis is "Reasons abuse and the influence of illegal substances in bodybuilding". Today, people can choose from many accessible sports activities and one of them is fitness. In the area of bodybuilding, there are many dietary supplements that could be bought easily on specialised e-shops as well as in stores. But the accessible substances and dietary supplements are not the only ones which are used. Men trying to build muscle mass use prohibited substances or at least they have already heard about them. These substances are used in body-building even though the health problems appear during using them. The theoretical part of my thesis is focused on the issue of doping in body-building. Firstly, the historical development of doping in sport is offered. Further, the thesis describes the groups of pharmacological prohibited substances that support the sportsman to achieve the stated goals. The prohibited methods are connected to the prohibited substances; the fourth chapter discusses these methods. The most important chapter of this thesis is about the health consequences appearing during the using of doping. This chapter is supported by the research that was focused on the awareness of sportsmen about doping and their experiences of changes after using the prohibited substances. The basic of the practical part of the thesis is a qualitative research made by qualitative strategy in data collection. The aim of my research was to map the awareness of sportsmen and their experiences of changes after using the prohibited substances. The following questions were used: Under what circumstances do sportsmen meet the prohibited substances for the first time? Under what circumstances do they use them? What is the knowledge of sportsmen about the illegal substances? What changes do the sportsmen experience after the using illegal substance? The data was collected by a nonstandard semi-structured interview with men practising bodybuilding. The interviews were with the agreements of sportsmen recorded on a dictaphone and then rewritten into the written form and by using the method of paper and pencil they were coded. From created categories, subcategories and codes the schemes showing the information were created. For instance, the reason for using the prohibited substances is because of muscle building. Another scheme of the most used prohibited substances shows the majority of using anabolic steroids that are supported by the scheme showing the health consequences appearing during the using these substances. From the data, it is clear that the changes either positive or negative are experienced by the sportsmen in terms of their physical and psychological condition as well as in their social perception. Thanks to the collected data the aims of this thesis were achieved.
