Abstract

(p> .223). There was a significantly positive correlation (r= .622, p= .002) between the K-tape condition and VJH and a negative correlation (r=−.515, p= .014) for IAT after 20min of exercise. Discussion: The rigid tape condition resulted in lower levels of expected performance of VJH and IAT in recreational athletes, compared to the no tape condition, while the K-tape and sham tape conditionsdidnotpositively ornegatively affect either the subject’s expectation of performance or comfort levels. Despite these differences in perception therewas no actual effect of any tape condition onVJH and IAT performance in recreational athletes. Interpretation of these results shouldbe limited to the2 specificperformance tests used which may be considered a limitation of this study.
