Summary

The objective of the project is to investigate the influence of application of Kinesio Taping in young athletes in football, muscle strength and muscle activation in the performance of the Single Leg Hop Test tests and Triple Hop Test methods: will be conducted a randomized, placebo-controlled and double-blind. 24 individuals will be athletes who fit the criteria for inclusion will be randomized into 2 groups (Placebo, Kinesio Taping Taping) and will be submitted to the tests of Single Leg Hop Test, Triple Hop Test, the isokinetic evaluation and electromyographic of Rectus Femoris dominant lower limb. Then the intervention shall be carried out with application of Kinesio Taping for activation of rectus femoris muscle group and placebo intervention Kinesio Taping with application of Kinesio Taping of transverse way the rectus femoris without tension in the Placebo group Taping. The volunteers will be re-evaluated 30 minutes after application of the technique and 12:0 am after with the same tests for that later can be compared the results obtained in each group. Analysis: will be achieved statistical tests and adopted a significance level of 5 percent

Conditions

  • Kinesio Taping

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Kinesio Taping

Application of Kinesio (Kinesio Tex Gold ®) of black color. The tape will be applied from proximal to distal, leaving the anterosuperior iliac spine Bottom, passing over the Rectus Femoris and ending in the region of the anterior tibia tuberosity with a voltage of 25 %.

DEVICE

Kinesio Taping placebo

The volunteer who is allocated at random in the placebo group will receive an application of Kinesio transverse way the rectus femoris muscle, in order to verify a possible placebo effect of application of tape.
