The physiological adaptation to training is specific to the muscle activity, dominant energy system involved, muscle groups trained, as well as intensity and volume of training. Despite increasing popularity of snowboarding only little scientific data is available on the physiological characteristics of female and male competitive snowboarders. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to compare the aerobic capacity and maximal anaerobic power of elite Polish snowboarders with untrained subjects. Ten snowboarders and ten aged matched students of Physical Education performed two exercise tests. First, a 30-second Wingate test was conducted and next, a cycle ergometer exercise test with graded intensity. In the first test, peak anaerobic power, the total work, relative peak power and relative mean power were measured. During the second test, relative maximal oxygen uptake and lactate threshold were evaluated. There were no significant differences in absolute and relative maximal oxygen uptake between snowboarders and the control group. Mean maximal oxygen uptake and lactate threshold were significantly higher in men than in women. Significant differences were found between trained men and women regarding maximal power and relative maximal power. The elite snowboarders demonstrated a high level of anaerobic power. The level of relative peak power in trained women correlated negatively with maximal oxygen uptake. In conclusion, our results seem to indicate that the demanding competition program of elite snowboarders provides a significant training stimulus mainly for anaerobic power with minor changes in anaerobic performance.

The Dennison’s method is aimed at stimulating different mental functions through natural movements of the whole body. This method is mostly used in dyslexic disorders therapy among children through restoring and activating natural developmental mechanisms leading to improvement of integration of both hemispheres, which directly affects the child’s learning processes.

Metoda Dennisona jest skierowana na stymulację różnych funkcji psychicznych przez wykorzystanie naturalnych ruchów całego ciała. Główne zastosowanie znajduje w terapii zaburzeń dyslektycznych u dzieci, przywracając i aktywizując naturalne mechanizmy rozwojowe, co poprawia integrację obydwu półkul mózgowych i ma bezpośrednie przełożenie na procesy uczenia się dziecka.

AIM The aim of the work was to examine the influence of PNF-therapy (proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation therapy) based rehabilitation on the improvement process of motor impairment in patients after ischemic stroke located in the left hemisphere. Our study was carried out in K. Gibiński Central Clinic Hospital of the Medical University of Silesia in Katowice-Ligota. MATERIALS AND METHODS The research subjects were represented by a group of 20 patients (15 female and 5 male) aged 49–86 years, hospitalized in the abovementioned facility. Physical therapy in a stroke department begins (in the first 24 h) withcomprehensive evaluation of motor function, mobility, balance, coordination, sensation, and proprioception. Tests used to measures them include: Lovett scale, Brunnstom scale, Rankin scale, Up and Go Test and the Functional Reach Test. Goals that are measurable and realistic were set by the doctors and rehabilitation team, and were reevaluated in the last 24 h before discharge. RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS The results of our study indicate that a PNF-therapy based rehabilitation program helps in promoting the recovery of muscle strength, preventing complications due to disabilities and improves adapting to activities of dailyliving.

WSTĘP Celem pracy było sprawdzenie wpływu postępowania rehabilitacyjnego z zastosowaniem koncepcji PNF (proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation) na proces usprawniania motorycznego pacjentów po niedokrwiennym udarze mózgu zlokalizowanym w lewej półkuli. Badania przeprowadzono w Samodzielnym Publicznym Centralnym Szpitalu Klinicznym SUM w Katowicach Ligocie (SPCSK SUM). MATERIAŁ I METODY Materiał badawczy stanowiła grupa 20 hospitalizowanych pacjentów (15 kobiet i 5 mężczyzn) w wieku od 49 do 86 lat. Do weryfikacji procesu badawczego wykorzystano skale: Brunnstom, Rankina i Test Lovetta oraz testy funkcjonalne: Up and Go Test i Functional Reach Test. Badania przeprowadzono w ciągu pierwszych 24 godzin po zakwalifikowaniu pacjenta na Pododdział Udarowy Oddziału Neurologii SP CSK SUM oraz w ciągu ostatnich 24 godzin przebywania badanych na oddziale, po przeprowadzonym procesie usprawniania motorycznego. WYNIKI Wszystkie przeprowadzone testy wykazały poprawę zarówno w zakresie siły mięśniowej, napięcia mięśniowego, jak i odzyskania sprawności w codziennych czynnościach.
