THE EFFECT OF RESPIRATORY MUSCLE’S KINESIOLOGY TAPING ON PHYSICAL FITNESS PARAMETERS IN MALE UNIVERSITY STUDENTS: DOUBLE-BLIND CROSS-OVER STUDY

Öz

The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of diaphragmatic kinesiology taping on physical fitness parameters in university students. Twenty male university students participated in this study voluntarily. Muscle facilitation technique was applied on back and abdominal region coinciding diaphragm muscle. For sham application, same tape material was applied without a special stretch or technique. International Physical Activity Questionnaire Short Form (IPAQ-SF), 2 km walking test, prone plank, side plank, Sorenson test and Standing stork test were used for evaluation. After the first evaluation, we waited 72 hours for the second application. Firstly, 10 participants had tape application and the other half had sham taping. In the second session, we changed the application. In the taping and placebo applications, a significant relationship was found between prone endurance test values before and after application (p<0.05). In the kinesio tape and placebo applications, a significant relationship was found in 2 km walk performance compared to untaped condition evaluation before and after the application (p <0.05). In the before-after evaluations within the group, a significant difference was found in the kinesio tape and placebo applications in the 2-kilometer walking test, but there was no statistically significant difference in the comparisons between the kinesio tape and placebo applications.

ERKEK ÜNİVERSİTE ÖĞRENCİLERİNDE SOLUNUM KASI KİNEZYOLOJİK BANTLAMASININ FİZİKSEL UYGUNLUK PARAMETRELERİNE ETKİSİ: ÇİFT KÖR ÇAPRAZ TASARIMLI ÇALIŞMA

Öz

Bu çalışmanın amacı, üniversite öğrencilerinde diyafragmatik kinesiyolojik bantlamanın fiziksel uygunluk parametreleri üzerine etkilerini araştırmaktı. Bu çalışmaya 20 erkek üniversite öğrencisi alındı. Diyafragma için sırt ve karın bölgesine kinezyobandın kas fasilitasyon tekniği kullanıldı. Plasebo uygulama için aynı bant materyali, diyafragma kasına herhangi bir özel gerim ve teknik olmaksızın sadece yapıştırıldı. Değerlendirme için; Uluslararası Fiziksel Aktivite Anketi Kısa Formu (IPAQ-SF), 2 km yürüme testi, prone plank, side plank, Sorenson test ve Standing stork test kullanıldı. İlk ölçümlerde 10 katılımcıya kinesio tape, 10 katılımcıya plasebo bantlama uygulandı. İlk değerlendirme bittiğinde kinesio tape hemen çıkarıldı ve 72 saat dinlenme süresi verildi. İkinci ölçümde uygulama değiştirildi. Kinesio tape ve plasebo uygulamalarında prone endurans değerlendirmesinde uygulama öncesi ve sonrası arasında anlamlı bir farklılık bulundu (p<0,05). Kinesio tape ve plasebo grubunda 2 km yürüme testi değerlendirmesinde uygulama öncesi ve sonrası arasında anlamlı bir farklılık bulundu (p<0,05). Grup içi önce-sonra değerlendirmelerinde 2 kilometre yürüme testinde kinesio tape ve plasebo uygulamalarında anlamlı fark bulundu ancak kinesio tape ve plasebo uygulamaları arasındaki karşılaştırmalarda istatistiksel olarak anlamlı fark görülmedi.
