advised to perform numerous flexion exercises
daily. The following operative treatments
are performed: for the valgus deformity
of foot – the Grice - Green operation or
Grice – Greena – Sotirow operation, for the
talo – naviculare arthrodesis – the Sotirow,
and the Steindler method or other in the
cases of the correction of axis of halluces,
resection of metatarsal bones heads, transposition
of tendons. Kinezytheray is useful
for all non – operative cases and in all operative
cases as the post – operative treatment.
Results and conclusions
1. Flexions test of toes is a simple method
to recognize the functional situation
of the foot. This examination should
be used by all orthopedic surgeons as
well in people designing shoes for the
shoe industry. This examination is very
important in the screenings of feet in
children in every kindergarten.
2. Kinezytherapy of foot is the best method
for every patient. Additionally, the
wooden shoes for adults and youth are
advised as prophylactic measures.

key words: secular changes – motor
abilities – adiposity – children
Recent changes of lifestyle including
inadequate nutrition, and reduced physical
activity and work load have had a significant
impact on somatic development – especially
body adiposity along with functional
capacity and also motor abilities of the
growing organism. Relationship between
energy intake and output due to reduced
physical activity has contributed to the
increase of depot fat, and reduced also the
development of skill, endurance, muscle
strength and others. These changes have
contributed to an increasing prevalence of
overweight and obesity, which concerned
also children and adolescents. Comparison
of the level of adiposity, aerobic power,
muscle strength and skill revealed significant
negative changes since the middle
of the last century up to the recent
years. International comparisons included
school children and adolescents; measurements
repeated during past decades
demonstrated also similar changes in Czech
children of preschool age. Skinfold thickness
(triceps, subscapular, suprailiac) and
motor tests (broad jump, ball throw, 20 m
run) were evaluated. Significant increase
of adiposity and worsening of the results
of motor tests – especially broad jump and
ball throw were revealed in the prevailing
majority of subjects; performance in 20 m
run did not change. Gender differences, i.e.
greater adiposity and reduced motor performance
was found already in preschool
girls. Lifestyle obviously has already been
negatively influencing children in preschool
age; however, spontaneous active
children and/or those who participated
in special physical education classes have
always shown a higher level of motor devel-
