Comparison of selected fitness assumptions for teams various kinds of sports

The thesis deals with the comparison of the fitness predispositions and body composition in various kinds of sports teams. The aim of the thesis was to determine the differences between the fitness predispositions and body composition among ice-hockey players, cyclists and track-and-field athletes with comparable levels of performance from South Bohemia aged 15-18. As the main tests we used spiroergometric VO2max tests, the Wingate test on a bicycle ergometer and the analysis of body composition on the Tanita BC 418 MA device. The theoretical part of the thesis deals with the transport mechanism of the organism and the factors that affect performance in those given sports. The practical part describes the tested teams, the used testing devices and the research process. Next, we analyze the obtained values and compare them against each other. All values were obtained using the load-test laboratory at the University of South Bohemia in the Department of Physical Education and Sport in České Budějovice. There are slight differences between the individual teams in each of the three tested aspects that are characteristic for the given sports
