简要总结
This study evaluates the effects of kinesio taping applied to the quadriceps femoris on delayed-onset muscle soreness, lower-extremity range of motion, and explosive jump performance following a fatiguing exercise protocol in healthy sedentary males.
详细描述
Participants undergo a fatiguing sit-to-stand exercise protocol to induce exercise-induced muscle damage. Using a controlled crossover design with repeated measurements, participants complete both a kinesio taping (KT) condition and a non-taping (N-KT) control condition, separated by a 96-hour washout period. Measurements including subjective muscle soreness, active range of motion of the hip, knee, and ankle joints, thigh circumference, and squat jump performance are evaluated at baseline, 24, 48, and 72 hours post-exercise.

入选标准
- •Healthy male participants aged between 18 and 25 years.
- •Individuals with a sedentary lifestyle, defined as no regular exercise participation during the past six months.
排除标准
- •Individuals with a history of lower extremity musculoskeletal injury within the previous six months.
- •Known skin hypersensitivity or allergic reactions to acrylic adhesives.
- •Current use of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), analgesics, or antioxidant supplements.

研究组 & 干预措施
Kinesio Taping (KT)
Application of Y-shaped kinesio tape to the quadriceps femoris muscle with 25%-50% tension immediately after the fatigue protocol.
干预措施: Kinesio Taping (Device)
Non-Taping Control (N-KT)
Participants complete the fatiguing protocol without any taping application during the recovery period.
