PRVÁ AKADEMICKÁ KNIŽNICA S ÚSPEŠNÝM PROGRAMOM DOBROVOĽNÍCTVA
Dobrovoľnícky program seniorov v Univerzitnej knižnici UMB píše už svoju sedemročnú históriu. Z pôvodne pilotného projektu vznikol program, ktorý spája pracovníkov knižnice a dobrovoľníkov/dobrovoľníčky do funkčného celku. Toto spojenie prináša benefity pre inštitúciu, pracovníkov, dobrovoľníkov i používateľov. Rovnako dlho spolupracuje Univerzitná knižnica UMB s neziskovou organizáciou Centrum dobrovoľníctva v Banskej Bystrici

Long jump: the are body height and body weight good predictors of performance in elite jumpers?
Long jump are cyclic-acyclic movements of maximum intensity. It is a discipline thatcombines speed and jump in technique, that is, the speed-strength properties of competitors.Speed, agility and explosiveness are of special importance in jumpers. The main goal of theresearch is to determine the influence of Body height (BH) and Body weight (BW) with the bestachieved results of Long jump. Material and methods: In study included 21 top male jumpers(BH=184.19±4.68cm; BW=78.86±6.81kg). Their achieved best results were analyzed. Pearsoncorrelation coefficient was used to determine the relationship between body height and bodyweight and the results of long jumpers. Univariate model of regression analysis was applied andthe relevant coefficients were calculated. The level of acceptance of statistical significance was setto p<0.05. Results: Simple regression analysis did not show a statistically significant effect of Bodyheight on the results in the long jump (BH vs. Long jump R=0.183; p>0.05), while Body weightconfirmed a significant inverse relationship with the results of the jump (BW vs. Long jump R= -0.442; p<0.05). Conclusion: Long jumpers contain a large percentage of active muscle mass thatintegrates and generates motor explosive abilities for the success of long jumpers, primarilystrength and speed, which is confirmed by the results of the study. However, a good jumptechnique is also necessary, but with optimal body weight, because any increase in weight has anegative effect on the length of the long jump.

The role of SSC cycle in ice hockey off-ice training
The Stretch and shortening cycle (SSC) is one of the most common used mechanismin a human body. The objective of this study was to determine a level of slow and fast stretchshorteningcycle utilization in elite ice hockey players and prescribe some off-ice trainingrecommendations. The sample included 23 professional ice-hockey players of the SlovakTipos league team HKM Zvolen (2 goalkeepers, 7 defenders, 14 forwards; age 26 ± 4.79years; height 182.87 ± 6.28 cm; bodyweight 87.22 ± 6.54 kg) in this research. The Depthjump (DJ) test, the Bilateral squat jump test and the Bilateral counter-movement jump testwere recorded in order to analyze the players’ ability to use fast and slow SSC cycle in lowerlimbs. The results showed no correlation between DJ and SJ or CMJ tests. However, Pearsoncorrelation revealed strong correlation between SJ and CMJ (p < 0.01, r2 = 0.949). 1 playerachieved better score in CMJ test within the range between 10 – 15 % (11.97 %). 16 playersscored better in CMJ test than SJ, but the percentage difference was insufficient (from 1.46to 8.20 %) and finally higher SJ performance than CMJ performance was measured in 6players (from 0.47 to 16.3 %). 6 players, who don’t utilize SSC efficiently due to their poortendon stiffness compared to high explosive muscle strength production were instructed toadd more plyometric exercises to their training regimen. On the other hand, 16 players weremore prone to injury due to insufficient load bearing capacity compared to their ability togenerate power. They were instructed to add more maximal strength exercises and strengthexercises with emphasis on eccentric phase of movement in order to build the capacity fordecelerative movements.

Comparison of gnostic and balancing capabilities different sport disciplines
Background: The quality of proprioception, which we classify as Gnostic functions, affects a person's physical performance. Sports performance requires a good perception of one's own body, a sufficient ability to control one's body and keep it as stable as possible in space. The purpose: The purpose of the research was to compare the state of Gnostic and balance abilities between different sports disciplines, in comparison with the control group. Methods: 80 probands of both genders, aged 18-30 years, were divided into 7 groups of 10, according to sports discipline. The last control group consisted of 10 probands who did not perform any sport. Active athletes were selected for the research, involved in the highest competition of their discipline from various sports: sprint, athletic walking, throws, long jumps, judo, basketball and ice hockey. For the diagnosis of gnostic functions, tests were chosen to examine the modalities of kinesthesia, somatognosis and stereognosis. To test the equilibrium functions, 6 tests using BOSU with both, visual and non-visual control were used. Results: Results at the level of statistical significance at the level of p = 0.05 were demonstrated between the groups of jumpers and basketball players in the kinesthesia test and in the somatognosis test between all athletes and the control group. The stereognosis test showed significant differences between all groups except the sprinter and basketball players. In the equilibrium tests, a statistically significant difference was shown only in the test of standing on both lower limbs without visual control, between the groups of sprinters and the control group, sprinters and basketball players and between the control group and all athletes together. Conclusions: Based on the results, we can say that there are significant differences in some proprioceptive and equilibrium modalities in different sports. We assume that the type of sport can have an impact on the quality of these functions

To determine the association of cardio-respiratory fitness with anthropometric characteristics in collegiate athletes
The purpose this present study was to determine the relationship ofcardio-respiratory fitness (VO2max) with anthropometric characterssuch as BMI, hip-waist ratio and % body fat in collegiate athletes. Atotal of 100 healthy collegiate athletes with mean age of 19.51 yearswere voluntarily participated in this study. The mean weight (kg),height (mtr), BMI, hip-waist ratio and % body fat of all the subjectswere 52.29, 1.62, 19.81, 1.16 and 14.07 respectively. The VO2 maxwas measured by Bruce treadmill test and the mean VO2 max was56.65 ml/kg/min. the Pearson’s correlation test were applied betweenthese variables and statistical significant relation were foundbetween BMI and Vo2 max as well as between % body fat and VO2max but statistical insignificant relation found between hip-waistration and VO2 max. Therefore the finding of the present researchsuggests that VO2 max is directly associated with BMI and % bodyfat
