Title: The effect of the compensation program on the reduction of muscle imbalances for football players U17 and U19 Objectives: The objective of this study is to design and test the effect of a set of compensatory exercises for U17 and U19 soccer players that will lead to a reduction in muscle imbalances. Methods: The theoretical part used content analysis of documents and other scientific publications discussing muscle imbalances in football players. In the practical part, an entrance diagnosis was performed to detect muscle imbalances. In the practical part of the study 38 players (boys) of the U17 and U19 category of the MFK Chrudim football club were included. Both categories (U17 and U19) were divided into two groups, the intervention group and the control group. The probands were tested with a standardized protocol according to the muscle test according to Janda (2004). The rating scales were also taken from these tests. Furthermore, the testing was completed with tests according to Kolar (2009), focusing on the deep stabilization system (diaphragm test, intra-abdominal pressure test) and joint mobility of the lower limbs in the form of a deep squat test. Other tests used were the Thomayer test, deep- seated forward bending according to the test battery: the Unifittest (6-60), and an...
Možnosti kompenzace svalových dysbalancí způsobených jízdou na koni u hobby jezdců
VYDLÁKOVÁ, Klára
This bachelor thesis deals with the possibilities of influencing muscle imbalances occurring in hobby horse riders. The aim of this bachelor thesis was to summarize and describe the most common muscle imbalances that occur in horse riders and also to suggest possible influences on these imbalances. These two objectives were achieved in the theoretical part of the bachelor thesis. The third and fourth objectives were to design a suitable exercise unit and also to evaluate its effect. This objective is already related to the practical part of this bachelor thesis, the actual research. The thesis is divided into two parts, the theoretical part and the practical research. The theoretical part summarizes the knowledge about muscle imbalances, the riding seat, its errors and compensatory exercises. The practical part is devoted to the description of the research that was conducted. It also includes the actual exercise unit constructed from the described methods. The research itself was conducted in the form of qualitative research and involved a total of 4 probands. All of these probands signed an informed consent to undertake the research, which is available for inspection by the author of this thesis, as well as the consent of the riding club in which the probands ride. The research begins with a questionnaire and baseline examination to help determine the muscular imbalances that are present in the riders. Based on these examinations, an appropriate exercise unit was then designed and its effect was further monitored. Two exercise units were actually designed. The main exercise unit was designed for home-based exercise, which probands performed at least 4 times a week. The secondary exercise unit was aimed directly at the pre- and post-riding periods. The designed exercise unit consisted of a total of 12 exercises that focused primarily on activating the HSSP, stretching shortened muscles, and strengthening weakened muscles. The research lasted for two months, during which time the probands underwent a total of 4 exercise unit checks. The conclusion of the thesis and the discussion summarises all the findings that have been identified through this undergraduate research. The thesis can be useful as a source of information for all hobby riders and physiotherapists who encounter this issue.

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. After 8 therapies was performed an output kinesiological analysis and also was written an overall evaluation of the therapy.
Possibilities of physiotherapy at lumbar spine pain at the people with sedentary employment.
ŠIMKOVÁ, Vendula
This bachelor thesis deals with the possibilities of physiotherapy for people with sedentary jobs who suffer with pain in lumbar spine region. The lumbar spine region is one of the most loaded part of the spine, because there is a transfer of movement from lower limbs to the torso. The sedentary lifestyle and lack of the movement are very serious problems which affect the modern society and bring many potential risks, which have on the human body. The aim of this work was to describe the negative factors causing lumbar spine pain during sedentary work, to define shortened and weakened muscle groups related to lumbar spine pain and to create an exercise session which will relieve the low back pain in sedentary work. The practical part was performed in the form of qualitative research. The research group consisted of 4 people with sedentary jobs, who also have pain in the lumbar spine area. At the first visit, I acquainted the probands with the schedule and content of therapy and then I took an anamnesis and performed an initial kinesiological analysis. The exercise session was consisted of drills to activate the correct breathing pattern, movements from deep stabilization system, exercises from dynamic neuromuscular stabilization, the Moses method, the McKenzie method and relaxation techniques. The therapy was performed for 3 months. At the end I processed a final kinesiological analysis. The results of the research showed that the biggest changes occurred in the testing of shortened muscles, especially the flexors of the hip joint, and the pain in the lumbar spine was relieved.
Playing the accordion for school-age children from the perspective of physiotherapy
SMOLÍKOVÁ, Dagmar
This bachelor thesis deals with the issue of playing the accordion by children in a school age within the perspective of physiotherapy. Ergonomics of playing the accordion is currently still in the background of interests. For the player (in this case school-aged child), playing the accordion presents a one-sided physical activity and because of incorrectly loaded musculoskeletal system, the muscle imbalance evolves. Incorrect habits, can sooner or later, easily case problems such as back pain, poor posture and many others. The goal of this work was to describe the problem of playing the accordion, determine, how incorrect habits affects the musculoskeletal system and design an exercise program school-aged children playing the accordion. In theoretical part, playing the accordion, axial system, school-aged child evolution, posture, deep stabilization system and selected physiotherapeutic concepts are described. Practical part is processed by form of qualitative research. Data were contained by form of case reports, which includes anamnesis together with kinesiologic analysis. The research group was formed by children, who are already playing the accordion for 2-3 years. I worked with probands for 3 months. In first four therapies, my supervision over probands was once a week and after the fifth therapy, the time period of my supervision was extended for another week. Before the first therapy, I created an exercise program, which was individually modified according to abilities of each proband. Exercise program contained stretching and relaxing exercises of the cervical spine and wrist, activation of correct breathing stereotype, activation of a deep stabilization system with elements of dynamic neuromuscular stabilization and acral coactivation therapy, compensation exercise with overball and sensomotoric stimulation. In the end, during the last therapy, I determined kinesiologic outcome and long-term rehabilitation plan. Based on the research and subjective feelings of probands, I observed and improvement of breathing stereotype, posture during playing the accordion and spine pain relief.

The thesis describes both the anatomy of the muscles that make up DSS and its physiological and pathological function. The thesis continues by describing running techniques, running equipment, footwear or running injuries, and there is a chapter on the relationship between functional muscle imbalances and running. There are presented suitable physiotherapeutic methods and procedures at the end of the theoretical part. The goals of the thesis include the description of the most common muscle imbalances of recreational runners and a compilation of suitable compensatory exercise units for recreational runners. The practical part of the bachelor's thesis is processed in the form of qualitative research, which consists of case studies. The research group consists of four recreational runners, two women and two men. These recreational runners run regularly. They run twice a week for one year at least. The research lasted 3 months. At the beginning of the research was provided an initial examination, including an anamnesis and kinesiological analysis. Therapy was based on the initial examination which included compensatory exercises and some manual treatments. Final kinesiological analysis and an overall evaluation of the therapy were performed after three months. During the final examination were recorded changes of the musculoskeletal system and postures of all probands. The results have shown better DSS activity, stabilization of key joints and it also affected some shortened muscle groups. The thesis includes examples of muscle imbalances of recreational runners and its physiotherapy. To the public as well as to professionals it can serve as a source of information about running and its connections with the musculoskeletal system.
