Atletizm atlama sporcularında gastrocnemius kasına uygulanan kinezyo bantlamanın sıçrama yüksekliğine akut etkisinin incelenmesi

Abstract

Amaç: Bu çalışmanın amacı atletizm atlamalar branşı sporcularında gastrocnemius kasına uygulanan kinezyo bantlama fasilitasyon ve inhibisyon kas tekniklerinin sıçrama yüksekliğine akut etkisinin incelenmesiydi.
Yöntem: Araştırmaya 17 atletizm atlamalar branşı sporcusu dâhil edildi. Sporcular rastgele fasilitasyon ve inhibisyon grubuna ayrıldı ve sporcuların her iki gastrocnemius kasına kinezyo bant uygulaması yapıldı. Sporcuların squat, serbest ve aktif sıçrama yükseklikleri Microgate Optojump® ölçüm aleti ile bantlama öncesi ve bantlamadan 24 saat sonra bant çıkarılmadan değerlendirildi.
Bulgular: Fasilitasyon ve inhibisyon gruplarının yaş, vücut ağırlığı, boy uzunluğu ve vücut kütle indeksi değerleri arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı fark yoktu (p>0,05). Fasilitasyon ve inhibisyon gruplarının bantlama öncesi ve bantlama sonrası squat, serbest ve aktif sıçrama yükseklikleri ve bu sıçramalar sırasında üretilen güç değerlerinin benzer olduğu ve gruplar arasında fark olmadığı belirlendi (p>0,05).
Sonuç: Çalışmamızın sonucunda atletizm atlamalar branşı sporcularında gastrocnemius kasına uygulanan kinezyo bantlama fasilitasyon ve inhibisyon kas tekniklerinin dikey sıçrama performansına etkisinin olmadığı belirlendi.

Investigation of acute effect of kinesio taping applied to gastrocnemius muscle on jumping height in track and field jumping athletes

Abstract

Purpose: The aim of this study was to investigate the acute effect of facilitation and inhibition kinesio tape application techniques applied to the gastrocnemius muscle of track and field jumping athletes on jumping height.
Methods: Seventeen track and field jumping athletes were included in the study. The athletes were randomly allocated to the facilitation or inhibition group and the kinesio tape was applied to both gastrocnemius muscles of the athletes. The squat, free jump, and active jump heights of the athletes were assessed with the Microgate Optojump® measuring device before taping and 24 hours after taping while the tape was on.
Results: There was no statistically significant difference between the groups in age, body weight, height, and body mass index values (p> 0.05). It was determined that the squat, free and active jump heights before and after banding of the facilitation and inhibition groups and the power values produced during these jumps were similar and there was no difference between the groups (p> 0.05).
Conclusion: As a result of our study, it was determined that the application of facilitation and inhibition kinesio tape applied to the gastrocnemius muscle on athletics jumpers did not affect the vertical jump performance.
