Effects of Kinesio Taping on Muscle Strength and Dynamic Balance of Lower Limbs After Eccentric Exercise
Objective:To investigate the effects of kinesio taping(KT)on muscle strength and dynamic balance ability immediately after eccentric exercise,and to provide theoretical basis for reducing the risk of sports injury.Methods:30 healthy male college students were recruited and randomly divided into 3 groups(control group,pressure group and KT group)with 10 people in each group.For pressure group and KT group,lastic bandage and kinesio taping were applied to the front of the thigh before exercise,and Y balance and isokinetic muscle strength of the dominant lower extremity were tested before and immediately after exercise,respectively.Results:Before exercise,there were no significant differences in the relative peak moment,average power,average peak moment and Y balance of knee extensor muscle in 3 groups(P>0.05).After exercise,the relative peak moment,average power and average peak moment of knee extensor muscle in 3 groups were significantly decreased compared with before exercise(P<0.05).There was no significant difference among all groups(P>0.05).After exercise,the maximum distance of Y balance test of lower limbs in front,inside and outside directions of 3 groups was significantly decreased compared with that before exercise(P<0.05).Compared with the control group,there were significant differences in the maximum distance in 3 directions between the KT group and the pressure group(P<0.05).Conclusion:High intensity exercise can induce fatigue of lower limb muscle group,and kinesio taping can not promote muscle strength recovery,but can improve lower limb dynamic balance ability.
