Effect of Supplementation on Somatic Parameters
Kostikidou, Marianthi ; Kinkorová, Ivana (advisor) ; Heller, Jan (referee)
Author: Bc. Marianthi Kostikidou Title: Effect of supplementation on somatic parameters Objectives: The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of a 60-day long supplementation with Tribulus Terrestris on the body composition of healthy men. Methods: This diploma thesis is a double-blinded experiment. The theoretical part was mainly processed on the basis of information from electronic sources in English and Czech language. The subjects of this study were within the range of 18-35 years old and were randomly divided into an experimental (TT1) and a control (TT2) group. We examined changes in basic anthropometric parameters (height, weight, circumferences, skinfolds) and body composition estimated by bioelectrical impedance (BIA). The statistical analysis of the data was evaluated using ANOVA. The level of significance was set to 0.05. Results: In TT1 we observed significant changes in anthropometric parameters. Changes in body composition estimated by BIA were not of statistical significance. Statistically significant changes in TT2 were noted in both anthropometric measurements and BIA. Changes in both groups could be caused by various factors. Keywords: ergogens, nutritional supplements, tribulus terrestris, testosterone, caliperation, body composition, bioelectrical impedance
Somatotype comparison of current UK FTVS students and UK FTVS students forty years ago

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,...

Detection of body fat percentage by using the caliperation on Viva Fitnes clients in České Budějovice
PELEŠKOVÁ, Anna
The aim of this Bachelor Thesis is to detect a body fat percentage among clients attending fitness centre Viva Fitnes in České Budějovice. In total, two hundred respondents of both sex were measured and analysed. The measuring was mainly concerned with gym and indoor lessons clients. Basic somatic proportions and body fat were surveyed via skin fold Pařízková caliperation method. The procedure and fieldwork results are listed in the practical part. The theoretical part provides current knowledge overview regarding the issue of human body composition necessary to understand the basic issues of the Thesis. The resulting statistic values are processed in form of graphs, charts and statistical significance.
