Summary

The study is assessed the electromyographic activity response of non-dominant biceps brachii muscle during unilateral-dominant concentric, eccentric and isometric biceps brachii muscle contractions under kinesiotaping and non-taping conditions. The aim of the study is to determine the synergistic effect of kinesiotaping which is applied on non-dominant biceps brachii muscle on force irradiation.

Conditions

  • Healthy

Interventions

OTHER

Force Irradiation

For the force irradiation, while the subjects perform dominant elbow flexion at an angular velocity of 60°/s for concentric contractions, 30°/s for eccentric contractions, at 90° elbow flexion position for isometric contractions with a maximal effort level, electrical activity of the non-dominant biceps brachii and triceps brachii muscles are recorded.

OTHER

Kinesiotaping

For kinesiotaping, the elbow positioned in 30°-45° flexion and kinesiotaping facilitation technique is applied origin to insertion of non-dominant biceps brachii muscle before 24 hours the experiment.
