The Verification of the Use of the Heart Rate Variability in the Management of Training Process in Adolescent Mountain Bikers
KADLEC, Jakub
Cross-country Olympic (XCO) is one of the endurance sports. The training process of mountain bikers is very demanding because the rider must be complex in endurance and anaerobic skills. Alfa and omega of the training process is a periodization of training load and recovery. Heart rate variability (HRV) can help us assess body's condition and readiness for training. In the practical part of the work, an experiment was carried out, which was attended by eight adolescent mountain bikers. The intervention took place during the training camp. The total intervention time was four weeks. The participants were randomized into two groups. The first experimental group (ES) (n = 4) was a graduated training camp with a heart rate variability guided training load. The second group was a control group that used a classical predefined training plan. For evaluation of HRV training efficiency a VO2max test and 20 minutes time trial (20TT) on an ergometer were used. The results showed an improvement in mean power output during 20TT in the experimental group (PRE 303.5 W; POST 317.5 W) and relative values (PRE 4.58 W.kg-1; POST 4.68 W.kg-1). On the other hand, there were no changes in average power (PRE 308 W; POST 305.7 W) and relative values (PRE 4.20 W.kg-1; POST 4.20 W.kg-1). From a statistical point of view, there was no effect of HRV training on performance indicators (p <0.05). Our experiment failed to confirm the usefulness of HRV training for cyclists.
The verification of usability of the heart rate variability in the training process for cyclists
KADLEC, Jakub
Alternation of intensity and rest in the right proportion is crucial for the development of sports performance. The correct timing of the practice can be simplified by monitoring heart rate variability. The aim of the thesis is to verify connection between the current readiness to give a sport performance and HRV. The verification had been performed using HRV monitoring and stress tests. The stress tests were undertaken in Functional Load Diagnostic Laboratory belonging to the Department of Sport Studies at the University of South Bohemia. The experiment had been running for two months. The participants of the experiment were two cyclists of XC category. One of the limiting factors of the experiment is the number of participants. The statistical significance of values was gained by comparing spirometry and spectral analysis of heart rate variability results. Correlation of values of sympathetic nervous system stimulation and minute ventilation can be considered as statistically important. Connections of only one of two experiment participants were statistically important for the thesis. The first of the probands showed 32 statistically important correlations out of 140. The second of the probands showed 11 statistically important correlations out of 140. More statistically significant correlations have been proven in cyclist with higher level of performance. The connection between the level of performance and the HRV, the importance of which is particularly in determining the level of compensation, has been confirmed at least to some extent.

Title: Training plan for kickboxing world championship with the focus on nutrition and regeneration Objectives: The purpose of the thesis is the training plan for kickboxers to the world championship not only within physical healht and conditional trainings, but also mental fitness and with full strength in their weight category. The thesis includes the list of United information about nutrition, the regeneration proces and fitness preparation. Additionally, brief knowledge about kickbox and its history. Methods: In this thesis I have used literature research from the selected chapters about kickboxing, regeneration and nutrition. I drew from my own years of experiences and discussed the training plan with my trainer, Vít Masopust, along with my own fitness knowledge supported by my research. Results: The result of the thesis is a one month training plan consisting of a fitness preparation and the procedures of regeneration. I have selected the exercises from my own experiences and literature research about sport trainings. The first two weeks of training plan are focused on the overall development of a kickboxer including determination, strength and dynamics, while the last two weeks are focused on the speed (of a kickboxer). Keywords: regeneration, nutrition, kickbox, training plan,...
