O presente estudo teve como objetivo, estabelecer o modelo da estrutura do desempenho esportivo por meio das adaptações antropométricas e motoras de atletas de equipe de voleibol masculino, adotando o ciclo de preparação da Seleção Brasileira Sub-19 para o Campeonato Mundial, no ano de 2005. A amostra foi intencional e composta por 12 atletas, com média de idade de 17,76+0,71 anos. Para o volume de treinamento, foi adotada a análise documental a partir de manuscritos elaborados pela comissão técnica. As variáveis analisadas nas três avaliações foram organizadas na seguinte ordem: Carga horária de treinamento; Antropométricas (estatura, massa corporal, somatória de sete dobras cutâneas, percentual de gordura); Potência de membros superiores (arremesso de “medicine ball” com três quilogramas); Potência de membros inferiores (saltos contramovimentos, “squat jump”, altura de alcance de salto de ataque e bloqueio, impulsão de saltos de ataque e bloqueio); Agilidade e resistência de velocidade (deslocamentos em 30m e 78m); Resistência muscular localizada (abdominais 30 segundos). Para verificar a influência do tempo de treinamento nas adaptações do desempenho foi utilizado o Modelo Linear Geral de Medidas Repetidas; para analisar e explicar a correlação entre as variáveis foi utilizada a Análise Fatorial das Componentes Principais. Os resultados encontrados permitem estabelecer as seguintes distribuições do volume de treinamento das categorias: treinamento físico: 94,92 horas (31,35%), treinamento técnico: 79,83 horas (36,32%), treinamento tático: 125,72 horas (41,53%) e o treinamento psicológico apenas 2,25 horas (0,74%). Em relação às variáveis e a influência do fator “treinamento”, na mudança das médias, identificamos valores com poder de observação superior a 99,9% para as variáveis estatura (F=93,15, p=0,000) e agilidade (F=26,08, p=0,000); 98,9% alcance de ataque (F=14,60, p=0,000); 97,4% resistência de velocidade (F=12,50, p=0,002); 96,3 % alcance de bloqueio (F=11,54, p=0,003); 91,1% impulsão de bloqueio (F=9,06, p=0,006); 89,7 % massa corporal (F=8,64, p=0,007); 86,3% resistência muscular localizada (F=7,79, p=0,009); 58,8% impulsão de ataque (F=4,12, p=0,050); 54,7% envergadura de bloqueio (F=3,75, p=0,061). O modelo das componentes principais produziu uma explicação da variabilidade total em cada avaliação (92,15% na primeira avaliação, 91,22% na segunda avaliação e 85,95% na última avaliação). O tempo destinado à duração das sessões de treinamento e a quantificação das categorias física e técnica demonstraram maior volume no período preparatório, com a finalidade de adaptar o organismo dos atletas para cargas mais intensas, conforme a aproximação do período competitivo. As adaptações durante a preparação demonstraram diferenças significativas e elevado poder de influência do treinamento nas variáveis antropométricas e motoras. O modelo do desempenho esportivo estabelece, com elevado percentual de variância nos três momentos de avaliação, a primeira componente (estatura e envergaduras de ataque e bloqueio), massa corporal e saltos específicos (alcance de ataque e bloqueio). Ao ser identificada a inter-relação entre as variáveis descritas, torna-se mais evidente a necessidade de se destinar maior atenção para os atletas mais altos, e consequentemente mais fortes. / This study had as objective to determine the structure of sport performance through the anthropometric and biomotor adaptations on the athletes from the male volleyball team during the macrocycle of under-19 Brazillian National Team in preparation to the 2005 world championship. The sample was composed of 12 athletes (17.76±0.71 years old). Training volume analysis was according to the manuscripts recorded by the coaches. The athletes were tested in three different moments and the measured variables were organized as followed: Training volume quantification; anthropometry (height, body mass, sum of seven skinfolds, % body fat); muscle power of the upper extremities ( 3 kg medicine ball throwing ); muscle power or the lower extremities ( squat jump. countermovement jump, attack and block height, attack and block vertical jumping height); shuttle test for agility ( 30 m) and shuttle test for speed resistance (78 m); abdominal strength (situps 30 s). The linear model for repeated measures was used to verify the influence of training time exposure on the adaptations on the performance; the factorial analysis of the mean components was used to analyze and explain the correlations among the variables. The results presented the following distribution for training volume: physical conditioning (94.92 hours – 31.35%); technical practices (79.83 hours – 36.32%), tactical training (125.72 hours – 41.53%) and psychological training (2.25 hours – 0.74%). Related to the measured variables and the influence of the training in the mean changes, it was identified values with observational power superior to 99.9% to the variables height (F=93.15, p=0.000) and shuttle test for agility (F=26.08, p=0.000); 98,9% attack height (F=14.60, p=0.000); 97,4% shuttle test for speed resistance (F=12.50, p=0.002); 96,3 % block height (F=11.54, p=0.003); 91,1% block vertical jump (F=9.06, p=0.006); 89,7% body mass (F=8.64, p=0.007); 86,3% abdominal strength (F=7.79, p=0.009); 58.8% attack vertical jump (F=4.12, p=0.050); 54,7% standing block height (F=3.75, p=0.061). The model of the principal components presented results that explained the total variability on each testing moment (92.15% moment 1; 91.22% moment 2; 85.95% moment 3). The time spent on training sessions and the quantification of the categories physical conditioning and technical practices demonstrated a highest volume at the preparatory period which aimed to promote adaptation on the athletes´ organism in order to prepare them to more intense work loads in direction to the competitive period. The adaptations occurred during the preparation revealed significant differences and high power of training volume influence in the anthropometric and biomotors variables. The model of sport performance demonstrated high percentage of variance at the three distinct testing moments, the first component (height and standing height for attack and block), body mass and specific jump tests (attack and block height). When identifying the inter-relation among the described variables, it is important to highlight the need to carefully deal with the tallest and consequently the strongest athletes.

The main point of this master´s thesis is the comparison of motor abilities by children who have been actively dedicated to sport gymnastics for at least four years and by those who have been involved in no sporting activity at all. On the basis of the results of motor tests and statistics calculations it was determined whether the sport gymnastics provides young school-age children with a particular impact on their motor abilities. That was even the aim of the whole study. The master´s thesis contains a list of twelve chosen motor tests that were carried out with children.

Title: Changes in motor performance of competition level adolescent and adult football players during winter training period. Objectives: The objective of this thesis is to confirm the efficacy of winter training on changes of motor performance by measuring and comparing topical condition of the players with the help of initial and final somatic and fitness parameters diagnostics of two football teams (adult men and adolescents) that compete in football competitions at similar amateur level and by comparing the achieved results. Methods: The methods used were measuring, comparison and data analysis. The assessment of motor performance of individual players was based on the series of tests UNIFITTEST 6-60 that was complemented with tests of specific football skills: long distance kick and heavy ball throw. Results: The conclusion is that during the winter training period that took 8 weeks included 16 training sessions and several training matches, the proposed training plan affected positively the motor performance of the tested players. The most substantial advance was recorded in 2 km run and long distance kick tests in which 96% of players significantly improved. The Bílé Podolí players improved their run time by 27 seconds on average and the Vrdy players improved by 21 seconds on average. In the...

In the practical part there is a description of testing procedure which finds out the level of space orientation, balance and rhythm coordination abilities by pupils in the forth form at primary school. The tests results are statistically analysed and annotated. Obtained data are compiled in charts and diagrams. There is a supplement to the practical part containing the compendium of activities for coordination development. Key words: coordination abilities, primary school age, motor learning, motor tests

Title: Relations between high, jumping and speed-dexterity parameters in older students' volleyball Objectives: The aim of this work is to identify and evaluate the relationships between high, jumping and speed-dexterity parameters in older students' volleyball in the years 2008 to 2012. Methods: For the processing and evaluation of data retrieved from the results of standardized tests for volleyball in individual years and generally used method of comparison (comparison) data were also used basic statistical methods (arithmetic mean, standard deviation, maximum, minimum, range of variation, T-sections, McCall criterion). The evaluation was performed by means of graphs and verbal assessment. Results: In the selection of the 20 highest players in each year from 2008 to 2012 could not be confirmed that the majority did not reach above the average of the absolute values after smash jump start, but it was confirmed that the majority did not reach above-average values when measuring speed-dexterity test, known as K-test measured against a whole group of players in a given year. Furthermore, according to the processed data confirmed that most of the selection of 20 of the K-test the best players in each year from 2008 to 2012 will achieve above-average values of the absolute jump start after smash...

Title: Junger junior's Athletic skills Objectives: To describe the athletic skills of secondary sports school pupils (non athletes) and to compare them with the athletic skills of children who are members of an athletic club. There will be evaluation tables created to measure the given skills. Another aim is to measure and compare general performance test results of both groups. Comparasion will be done against the general population and each other Methods: Observational cross-sectional study, observation, descriptive analysis, video recording, scaling, comparison Results: Secondary school pupils did not achieve similar results in general performance tests. The smallest differences in motor tests were recorded in the long jump, in other tests were bigger differences. In hurdlets, pupils differ from athletes, as I expected. The assumption that the best children in general performance tests would be the best in motor tests did not confirm completely. For pupils, this assumption was clearer, with athletes the best performers in motor tests didn't have the best results. Key words: Junger junior's, motor skills, performance, motor tests, older school age

Asperger syndrome and high-functioning autism is a form of pervasive developmental disorder characterized by impaired social interaction and communication and restricted and stereotyped interests. These children are often clumsy and motor uncoordinated. They also performed worse in standardized tests of motor function. In this diploma thesis we used Movement Assessment Battery for Children 2 (MABC-2) for assessment motor skills in children with Asperger syndrome and high-functioning autism aged 7-10 years in comparison with the group of children developing typically. Our study included 9 children with Asperger syndrome, 3 children with high-functioning autism and 64 children with typical development. Evident motor deficit (below 5. percentile) was found in 2 children with Asperger syndrome and 3 children with high-functioning autism. 1 child with Asperger syndrome was in a risk of motor deficit (6.-16. percentile). Children with Asperger syndrome and high-functioning autism performed significantly worse than children developing typically in a total score of this test. Significant difference was found in two components of MABC-2, in Aiming and catching (AC) and Balance (BAL). Better results reached children with typical development. Results of this study indicate that children with Asperger syndrome...

Title: Biathletes long term physical preparedness level in preparatory period Objectives: To compare in selected control tests from prepartory period the best results of present biathlon junior representants and junior results of the best present biathlon sportsmen, who are nowadays in the world biathletes top, and to give long term development overview according to these tests. Methods: In this thesis, data collection method, data analysis method and comparison method was used. Data collection method was the first step where we summarized all available junior results from selected preparatory period tests. Furhter, the data analysis method was used to select the best achieved time for each junior competitor in selected tests and from all results. Comparison method was chosen for thesis conclusion where we compare and present all junior competitors best results in well-arranged tables and charts. Arithmetic mean was used as statistical method for work with results Results: On the grounds of performance level comparison shown in preparatory period control tests in 2001-2012 period, of present junior group and junior level performance of present top world biathlon sportsmen, we discovered that long term performance level of present juniors is worse than performance level of the then juniors....

Title: Postural evaluation of volleyball players at young school age Defining the problem: The question of why to evaluate postural maturity of children after one year of life is becoming more frequent. Growing number of children whose parents want them to have athletes, but it is not always targeted early sporting activity for the benefit. In this issue could help mature postural evaluation and implementation of specific tests to assess the suitability of the beginning of targeted sports. The work deals with the evaluation of postural maturity of children younger than school age who are dedicated to volleyball, using a set of simple motor tests and their evaluation and comparison of performance in physical tests and evaluations according to the coaches. Objectives: The present study aims to assess postural maturity groups of children younger than school age, who regularly, at least a year, dedicated to volleyball. Evaluation will be using a battery of simple clinical tests. It also aims to assess the physical fitness of children and compare the results of physical tests with tests of postural maturity and performance broken down by coaches. Methods: Testing was performed using a selected group of children 7 clinical test battery evaluating postural maturity. Followed by testing the same group of...
