Abstract
This study examines the changes in muscular activation and muscle fatigue substances when taping treatment is applied in squat exercise and treadmill exercise, in which quadriceps femoris muscle are used frequently so as to clarify the effects of taping as an aid of exercise ability improvement.BR 30 healthy male adults in their 20’s participated in the study, in which tapes were put on their quadriceps femoris muscle, and various variables as the indicator of muscular activation and muscle fatigue substances were measured by electromyography(EMG) measurement technique before and after exercises.BR The following conclusion was drawn up: 1. In exercise using muscular strength of the lower limbs, all of the value of the normalized RMS for muscle activity after exercise of the taping group showed significant statistical difference from that of the non-taping group and control group. 2. In exercise using muscular strength of the lower limbs, the value of the MDF with muscle fatigue after exercise of group showed significant statistical difference from that of the non-taping group and control group.BR Therefore, the results of this study demonstrate that the application of taping treatment in sports activity or daily life where quadriceps femoris muscle are used a lot can have positive effects on the improvement of muscle activity and relief of muscle fatigue.
