Prevention of development of functional vertebragenous disorders among powerlifter community
ČERNOTA, Pavel
This bachelor's thesis deals with the options of prevention of development of functional vertebragenous disorders among the powerliftting community. The main purpose of this thesis was to propose a model of a therapy focusing on prevention of development of functional vertebragenous disorders, that remain one of the most common form of injury among powerlifters. Another purpose of this thesis was to examine the efficiency of this therapy by comparing the results gathered during the preand post-therapy assessment. The theoretical part of this thesis deals with spinal anatomy and mechanics. It also discusses the formation of functional disorders, the concept of the potential of the functional capacity, and compares the importance of mobility and stability. The empirical part of my work uses the qualitative research method. Three different subjects were examined and based on the initial assessment, a 4-week-long individual therapy was recommended. The therapy used the concepts from kinesiotherapy and some elements of the manual medicine. The therapy was successful in improving the function of the deep stabilisation spine system and joint mobility. However, the thesis couldn't provide evidence, whether the therapy had positive effect for prevention of the development of functional vertebragenous disorders.
