| Popis: | The submitted study dealt with the influence of education in the area of motor activities (MA) on the modulation of health. The selected research method was an experiment which included a total of 54 purposely selected respondents from the age of 20–71 years. The experimental group was divided into an experimental group of 20 respondents and a control group of 34 respondents. Within 6 months of the research the respondents of the experimental group performed the predefined MA. All participants of the research survey underwent an analysis of human body constitution by means of bioelectric impedance, before and after the experiment. The assessed indices were the content of body fat, active body mass with water content and without water content, basal metabolism and water content. The results show a statistically significant increase of active body mass in the experimental group compared with the control group. Favourable results are also found in the area of basal metabolism, which increased after the targeted intervention in the experimental group. The values of BMI and the content of body fat decreased after six months as predicted. It can also be stated that a very general education of nurses in the area of MA has a significant and positive impact on the constitution of the human body. |
