Název v původním jazyce
Physical activity of truck drivers
Popis výsledku v původním jazyce
Profession of a truck driver is very demanding both mentally and physically. It requires high level of psychological resistance during the work under pressure from their superiors and dispatchers, typically in time constraints. The aim of this study was to analyse movement habits of truck drivers. These habits are in direct dependence on conditions and circumstances of the work performance. Within a questionnaire survey, we have built up a questionnaire which was further spread by an electronic way. The survey was attended by 270 persons – mostly men (96.3 %), whose average age was 38.7, they were typically doing this job for 20-30 years (46 % of respondents). Most drivers put on their body weight during this job (68 % of respondents), namely, the gain was between 10 and 20 kg (38 % of respondents). Daily frequency of eating was either 3-4 times a day (43 % of respondents), or even 1-2 times per day (44 % of respondents). 59 % of respondents answered that they do not have regular sleeping regimen. Concerning their physical activity, 39% of respondents perform physical activity more than 5 times a week, mostly in their leisure time (54 % of respondents). The most popular activities of truck drivers are run, rope skipping, press-ups, squats, sit-ups, lift weights.
