Baumová, Nikola ; Šteffl, Michal (advisor) ; Soukupová, Vendula (referee)
Title: The effect of the menstrual cycle on performance in sports Objective: The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of the menstrual cycle on performance in sport using the results obtained from previous studies dealing with the effect of the menstrual cycle on performance in sport. Methods: This thesis was carried out as a systematic review. Sources of information were scientific articles and studies from the PubMed, Scopus, EBSCOhost and EBSCOhost databases and literature related to the influence of the menstrual cycle on sports performance. Results: A total of 45 studies were selected for this study (9 cross-sectional, 33 cohort and 3 intervention studies). A total of 3086 probands (2364 from cross-sectional, 644 from cohort and 78 from intervention studies) aged 18 to 35 years were included. Conclusion: In most cases, no effect of MC on sports performance was found. If any effect was observed, the worst phase of MC for performance appeared to be the mid-luteal phase, while the best was the follicular phase. Keywords: menstrual cycle, menstrual phase, follicular phase, luteal phase, strength, power, force, muscular performance, aerobic, aerobic power, aerobic capacity, endurance, endurance power, endurance capacity, anaerobic, anaerobic power, anaerobic capacity, athletic...

Aerobic Capacity Influence Possibilities in Parkinson`s Disease Patients
Plichtová, Klára ; Hoskovcová, Martina (advisor) ; Vondráková, Ivana (referee)
Author: Klára Plichtová Institution: Rehabilitation, Faculty of Medicine in Hradec Kralove Title: Aerobic Capacity Influence Possibilities in Parkinson's Disease Patients Supervisor: Martina Hoskovcová, MD Number of pages: 101 Number of attachments: 7 Year of defense: 2013 Key Words: Parkinson's Disease, Aerobic Capacity, Aerobic-strengthening Circuit Training, Xbox 360, Kinect, The Biggest Loser Ultimate Workout Summary: The thesis deals with the possibility of influencing aerobic capacity in patients with Parkinson's disease through aerobic-resistant training. It compares two forms of training, a real one (group aerobic-resistant circuit training) and a virtual one (Xbox game console and Kinect sensor). To assess the effect of aerobic-resistant training following assessment was used: spiroergometric examination, UPDRS III motor score, 6MWT, MINI BESTest, PDQ-39 and lower limb muscle strength measuring. The study group included 8 patients with Parkinson's disease. The thesis confirms in a case report form the results of recently published studies that recomend aerobic-resistant training in patients with Parkinson's disease and briefly discusses the advantages and disadvantages of both examined forms.

The effects of the application of insoles in sports shoes on aerobic capacity of soccer players
Stehlík, Jiří ; Frýbort, Pavel (advisor) ; Kokštejn, Jakub (referee)
Title: The effects of the application of insoles in sports shoes on aerobic capacity of soccer players Objectives: Effects of insoles Bootmatetsi on aerobic capacity of football players. Methods: The research sample included a soccer player in the U16 category (n = 19). The Yo-Yo Intermittent Recovery Test Level 1 was used to verify the interventional effect of the Bootmatetsi insoles. For the subjective perception of physical activity during the pretest and posttest was used a 15-degree Borg scale of 6 - 20. A five-point Likert scale was used to evaluate the comfort of Bootmatetsi insoles. The data was processed using Microsoft Office Excel 2010. Results: The application of Bootmatetsi insoles to football boots has provided a significant improvement in aerobic performance compared to original insoles (d = 1.1). Performance improved on average by 24%, i.e average improvement VO2max by 2,43 ml.min-1.kg-1. At the same time, research group claims that Bootmatetsi insoles have been rated as comfortable. Keywords: insoles, Bootmatetsi, aerobic capacity, VO2max
