Evaluation of the jump height of professional handball players in correlation with dynamic postural stability

Title: Evaluation of the jump height of professional male handball players in correlation with dynamic postural stability Aims: The aim of this thesis is to evaluate the jump height in professional handball players using the mobile application My Jump 2. Another goal is to evaluate dynamic postural stability, which was evaluated using a dynamic postural posturography device NeuroCom Smart EquiTest. The last goal of the thesis is the subsequent correlation of jump height and dynamic postural stability. Methods: This diploma thesis is a quantitative correlation study, in which the research used a deliberately selected group of professional handball players n = 20 with an average age of 25.64 ± 3.66, who play in the highest domestic competition and have simultaneously played handball for at least 10 years, with no history of serious orthopedic, internal or neurological injury. The evaluation took place in the kinesiology laboratory of the Department of Physiotherapy, UK FTVS. The mobile application My Jump 2 was used to evaluate the jump height and the NeuroCom SMART EquiTest device was used to evaluate the dynamic postural stability. The deliberately selected group of handball players was subjected to a jump height assessment first performed in the form of a Countermovement jump (CMJ), and then from..
