Effect of yoga practice on subjectively perceived medical condition
Schneibergová, Barbora ; Novotná, Klára (advisor) ; Šonská, Kristýna (referee)
This bachelor thesis focuses on the influence of yoga on the subjectively perceived health status of practitioners. The theoretical part briefly describes the system of yoga, including its history, the most commonly practiced styles and the eight limbs of yoga. In addition, the theoretical part contains a description of the effects of yoga on the organism of healthy individuals, but also its use in various diagnoses. I also focused on the risks of practicing yoga, including various injuries or pain. Furthermore, I briefly described the possibility of using yoga in physiotherapy and the recommendations for practicing yoga from the perspective of a physiotherapist. In the practical part I processed the results of the questionnaire survey. The effect of practicing yoga on health status was described as positive, however, if the approach is correctly chosen and sufficiently individual. If these recommendations are followed and the yoga is practiced under qualified supervision or after proper training, there may be no adverse effects for practitioners.
Risk factors of upper limb injuries and the relationship between general physical characteristics and punch force in martial arts
Sidunov, Matěj ; Pádecký, Jan (advisor) ; Šteffl, Michal (referee)
Title: Risk factors of upper limb injuries and relationship between general physical characteristcs and punch force in martial arts. Objectives: The master thesis has two objectives. First, to find out the possible performance and morphological predictors of upper limb fractures in martial arts participants. Second to find out the performance and morphological predictors and their magnitude of punching force. Methods: In our thesis we used a logistic regression to find out the strength of the predictors of upper limb fracture. On the retrospective history of fractures, the participants were asked, if they have had any upper limb fracture. Furthermore, Pearson's correlation coefficient and linear regression were used for the strength of the predictors of punching forces. Results: We found out, that none of the predictors of upper limb fractures were signiciant. Furthermore, the overall model was not significant as well (p = 0.064, R2 McF = 0.199). Linear regression for the prediction of punching forces was statistically significant (p <0.001, R2 = 0.672). The strongest predictors were handgrip strength and peak concentric fore during a push-up jump (both p <0.05). Keywords: martial arts, mixed martial arts, injury, punching

Analysis and prevention of ancle joints injuries in artistic gymnastics
VOBOŘILOVÁ, Dita
This bachelor thesis is about the most common injuries of ankle joint of the foot in women artistic gymnastics. This theses is focussed on the area of ankle joint, importance of foot arch and following ankle injuries of young gymnasts. It appears to be a common phenomenon and it could be a limiting factor of gymnasts performance. The main aim of this thesis is to create a physiotherapy exercise plan for stability of the ankle joint and coordination of movement. Those excercises shlould decrease muscle dysbalances, improve the stability of joints and in the meanwhile help to reduce the amount of ankle injuries. It should also show how often these gymnasts have injuries and what could possibly be the cause. This bachelor thesis is devided into theoretical and practical part. In the theorectical part, there is briefly described history of gymnastics and its development. After that there is a chapter about disciplines of women artistic gymnastics. Next chapters contains most common injurie, describtion of muscle dysbalances and hypermobility. Next chapter is focused on prevention of these injuries and some principles, which are important for reduction of these unnecessary problems connected with chronic overloading and injuries. Practical part of this thesis contains methodology, which was used for processing individual case reports. I had 5 artistic gymnasts, who train on the high competition level. The data where obtained by kinesiological examination, including special testing and examination on posturograph and pedoscope. The key physiotherapy method was somatosenzory stimulation method, exercises for deep mucle stabilitation system and balance aids. I suggested compensatory and stabilisation exercices and created a therapy brochure for gymnasts. After three months the final examination was performed, which is included in results. This bachelor thesis can be used for trainers, sportsmen, but also physiotherapists struggling with this issue.

ŠVADLENKOVÁ, Tereza
The bachelor thesis deals with the lower extremities issues of tennis players, muscle imbalances, injuries and of influencing them by physiotherapy, by compensatory exercise. The goals of the bachelor thesis include the description of muscle imbalances of lower extremities of tennis players, mapping the most frequent injuries of lower extremities of tennis players and designing lower extremities compensatory exercise which could be included in the training plan. The theoretical part of the bachelor thesis brings basic information about tennis, its history, description of basic tennis strokes, muscle loops and chains, muscle imbalances and the most frequent injuries of lower extremities. At the end of the theoretical part are presented suitable physiotherapeutic methods. In the practical part a qualitative research among tennis players aged 15-18 years from the tennis club LTC Pardubice was carried out. The research deals with 2 case reports of female tennis players and 1 of male tennis player. All of these players play tennis at the racing level, they participate tennis tournaments, and they had in their anamnesis some pain or injury of lower extremities. The research was carried out between October 2020 and May 2021. At the beginning of the research was made an initial examination, which included an anamnesis and a kinesiological analysis. The therapies were based on the initial examination and they included manual treatment, compensatory exercise, stretching and the method of post-isometric relaxation.

Effects of dance sport in the musculoskeletal system of adult individuals
JANÁČKOVÁ, Iveta
Dance sport is a demanding discipline; to participate in sport dance competitions needs daily training. Injuries and misbalance appear due to a huge strain and many dancers are forced to stop their career prematurely. There is not enough literature about the negative impact of dance sport on the musculoskeletal system available, so I decided to summarize the information. Another problem is an insufficient amount of information about possible compensation and prevention for sport dancers and dance coaches. In the theoretical part of the undergraduate thesis I focused on the description of basic kinesiology and anatomy of the musculoskeletal system, the characteristics of dance sport, and mainly on summarizing the information about the influence of this sport on the musculoskeletal system. The practical part of the undergraduate thesis consists of quality research made on two dance pairs and two non-sporting pairs. I got the necessary information from all participants from kinesiology analysis. I made questionnaires to get and complete the information about the dance pairs´ training. I compared the results with the results of kinesiology analysis of non-sporting pairs and I summarized the information about changes in the musculoskeletal system of dance pairs which might be caused by dance sport. Moreover, I planned compensatory exercises for dance pairs. The results of my research prove many effects on the musculoskeletal system and frequent injuries which might be caused by dance sport. Sport dancers should know about them. The undergraduate thesis can be used especially for sport dancers to provide them information about the possible negative impact of dance sport on the musculoskeletal system. It can also be used as an inspiration for dance sport coaches to include compensatory exercises into their lessons.
Příčiny eliminace koní ve vytrvalostních soutěžích a jejich prevence
ŠVARCOVÁ, Jana
The aim of this work was to acquire, process and evaluate information about the most common reasons for the elimination of horses from endurance competition races in the Czech Republic. Information about the veterinary status of horses was obtained from the main judges of various horse races held in the Czech Republic, from the horses' endurance cards, which record the factors evaluated during the competition itself, and where it is possible to find out what worsens most often, and how the cause manifests itself. Veterinary cards of individual horses and races were chosen randomly. The veterinary cards were evaluated with the aid of a full text commentary, giving detailed descriptions of each worsened factor, including their frequency. It was then suggested how problems could be avoided. Individual data was summarized, and the differences between individual groups of competitions were expressed. Based on the analysis of veterinary cards from participating horses in endurance competitions, recommendations were made on how to prevent problems, and what specific problems the riders should consider during the race. The most serious and common problems of horses in terms of endurance are described. It was found that the most common reason for the worsening of horses in endurance races is the factor known in Czech as "Chody", or Lameness. The most frequent deteriorating factor in veterinary controls was with the Mucous Membrane. In more than 80% of horses, more than two factors worsened during the race, which did not improve during the race in any way, but often even worsened. Many factors affect deterioration, from training and preparation of the horse, to the knowledge of the horse itself. The results show that most riders in the Czech Republic are not sufficiently informed. There is insufficient care for horses during endurance races. The riders are not experienced enough to prevent injuries or deterioration of the horse's health resulting in exclusion from races.

Bláha, Martin ; Majorová, Simona (advisor) ; Prokešová, Eva (referee)
Title: Level of first aid knowledge of ice hockey coaches Objectives: The main objective of this bachelor thesis was to determine the level of knowledge of ice hockey coaches regardless of the level of coaching license. The partial objectives are whether time since passing the coaching license affects the level of first aid knowledge of ice hockey coaches and whether first aid knowledge is higher in ice hockey coaches with higher coaching license. Methods: In my work, the method of anonymous survey was used. The questionnaire consisted of two parts, where the first part contained 9 general questions about coaching activities, from which i then evaluated the results and answered the research questions. The second part of the survey contained 18 questions on first aid knowledge. Results: Based on the survey, it was found that ice hockey coaches do not have sufficient knowledge in first aid. The results showed that the average success rate of the respondents (38) was only 58.3%. It was also found that time since licensure has a negative effect on the first aid knowledge of ice hockey coaches. Coaches who completed their coaching license studies recently (0-2 years) demonstrated better knowledge in this subject than coaches who completed their studies two or more years ago. Coaches who hold a B...
