Comparison of somatic parameters of female canoe sprint and canoe slalom competitors
Tulachová, Johana ; Busta, Jan (advisor) ; Bílý, Milan (referee)
Title of project: Comparison of somatic parameters of female canoe sprint and canoe slalom competitors Objectives of the work: The aim of this work is to compare the anthropometric parameters (body structure and body composition) of sprint canoe and canoe slalom female competitors. Methods of data processing: Anthropometric measurement was carried out by Riegerová, Přidalová, Ulbrichová (2006) and all parameters were all in accordance with the ISAK methodology used in the study by Ridge et al. (2007). A Harpenden-type caliper was used to measure skinfolds. Somatotypes were determined according to the methodology of Carter & Heath (1990). A bioimpedance scale (Tanita MC-980) was used for body composition analysis. The data were subsequently analyzed using descriptive (mean, standard deviation, median, minimum and maximum value, %) and exploratory statistics to assess statistical (T- test, p<0.05) and substantive (Cohen's d, d>0.8 ) of the significance of the difference between female in canoe sprint and canoe slalom. Results: In the compared groups, significant statistical differences were recorded in the circumferences of the biceps (p=0.00, d=1.43), forearms (p=0.04) and thighs (p=0.00, d=1.87). Sprint female canoeists and kayakers, on average, have a higher body weight by almost 4 kg, also a...
Sponsors' perception of canoe slalom
Chaloupka, Václav ; Bačáková, Radka (advisor) ; Voráček, Josef (referee)
Title: Sponsors' perception of canoe slalom Objectives: The aim of this thesis is to find out how Czech companies approach sports sponsorship. Another aim is addressing the reasons why canoe slalom still lacks the adequate level of popularity among Czech society in comparison to other minority sports. Based on the data from our research, I will suggest a new marketing campaign for the Czech canoe union in order to support the increasing popularity of this sport. Methods: The main method used in this thesis was a quantitative method, specifically a survey across Czech companies. Data from our research will be analyzed and used in creating a new marketing strategy. Results: We have found out that companies prefer to sponsor mostly individuals followed by sports teams and clubs. Also, they mostly sponsor mass sports. Canoe slalom should build its promotion strategy upon the best individual athletes, who are already well-known to increase its popularity. Key words: Marketing, marketing strategy, popularity, campaign, canoeing
Possibilities of influencing muscle imbalances in canoeists through physiotherapy
HAVRLANTOVÁ, Marie
This bachelor's thesis deals with muscle imbalances in canoeists and possibilities of their influence through physiotherapy. Canoeing, specifically whitewater kayaking, is a power-endurance water sport, whose goal is to pass across the river stretch as soon as possible. This sport puts high demands on the shoulder muscles and the trunk, on which different muscle imbalances arise, that are impaired by inappropriate compensatory exercise and poor stretching and can lead to injury. The aim of this thesis is to find out, what muscle imbalances and postural disorders occur in canoeists (whitewater kayakers) and how can one influence these problems with physiotherapy. The first (theoretical) part describes the general knowledge about canoeing - history, characteristics and the kinesiology of the paddling movement. Furthermore, sports training, muscle imbalances and sport medicine are generally described there. The second (practical) part describes the physiotherapeutical methods used in this study. It also contains the results of the research itself, which was processed in the form of case studies. Each case study comprises of anamnesis, initial kinesiological examination, the course of the individual therapies, final kinesiological examination and the final evaluation of therapy. The research lasted in the lenght of 8 therapies. The research showed, that the most common muscle imbalances in whitewater kayakers are: weakening of the deep stabilization system, upper cross syndrome and shortening of the hip flexors. With these imbalances are associated postural disorders in the form of increased lumbar lordosis and thoracic kyphosis, shoulder protraction and forwarded head posture. This thesis can be used in the practice of physiotherapy, sports coaches or as an educational material for a specific group of sportsman.

The relationship between selected conditional abilities and performance in white water slalom (category C1).
Busta, Jan ; Suchý, Jiří (advisor) ; Lehnert, Michal (referee) ; Bielik, Viktor (referee)
The aim of the study was to identify the relationship between selected fitness skills and the performance demonstrated in nomination races (NR) to the Czech Republic national team (NT) and for the Olympic Games. At the same time, we wanted to determine the optimal level of conditioning assumptions and define a model single-canoe sportsman. We were also searching to determine the differences between Senior NT and Junior NT. The research sample (n=17) of the Czech highest competitions series (Czech Cup) participated in testing to determine level of strength, endurance and partly speed assumptions. There were also measured anthropometric parameters (body dimensions and composition) in detail. Testing took place only 5 weeks before NR. The condition indicators were subsequently correlated with the NR performance. For indicators for which significant and at least moderate correlation were found, the possibility of performance prediction was also found. The highest correlations with performance were found in case of on-water sprints: 20m (rs=0,65), 40m (rs=0,86, resp. rs=0,62), 80m (rs=0,58) and 200m (rs=0,795). The on-water sprints are the only indicators, which could be possibly used for the NR performance prediction. In multiple regression of the 2 40m and 1 200m sprints was found high determination...

Relationship between selected specific and general indicators of strenght in white water slalom competitors in C1 men category
Říha, Martin ; Bílý, Milan (advisor) ; Baláš, Jiří (referee)
Title: Relationship between selected specific and general indicators of strength in water slalom competitors in category C1 Objectives: The aim of the study was to find out the relationship between the maximum strength tests at the gym and the explosive force test when paddling on flat water. Another aim of the thesis was to compare the measurement with results in selection races to Czech national team 2018. Methods: The test battery for general force tests included the bench press test, the attachment on the bench, the one arm attachment on the bench and the one arm pull up on the bar. To test the explosive force on a flat water we used a three-axis piezoelectric load cell 9137. Dewesoft Sirirus and Dewesoft, Dewetron, were used to diagnose the course of force. Correlation analysis was used to determine the relationship between the measurements. The degree of dependence was determined by the correlation coefficient value. Results: A strong dependence rate (r = ≥ 0.7) was demonstrated in the water test and the one arm attachment on the bench. There was no evidence of a strong degree of dependence on bench - press exercises (r = 0,63), the attachment on the bench (r = 0,58)and the one arm pull up on the bar (r = 0,04). The paddlers who achieved the best results in specific and general strength...

Čapková Ebelová, Eliška ; Kračmar, Bronislav (advisor) ; Pánek, David (referee)
Title Objectives: Methods: Results Key words Comparative analysis of chosen muscles in locomotion through shoulder girdle The aim of this study is to describe and to compare selected exercises performer during indoor training toward the canoe forward stroke. The research was conducted in an intentionally chosen sample of ten probands with high level of performance in whitewater slalom. We watched activity of ten selected muscles during canoe forward stroke, on simulator, diagonal pull, stretch of arms with elastic resistance, dumbbell pulls and pull ups by surface electromyography. Study evaluates intraindividual and subsequently interindividual the size of the muscle activation considering reference movement, forward stroke on flat water. The results proved similarities of the forward stroke and on simulator in terms of average muscle activation. M. latissimus dorsi shows higher activation during canoe forward stroke, on simulator, stretch of arms with elastic resistance, dumbbell pulls compared with other tested exercices. locomotion through the shoulder girdle, shot, canoeing, paddling, electromyography, muscular activity
