RESUMO
The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of strenuous exercises on resting heart rate, blood pressure, and maximal oxygen uptake. To achieve the purpose of the study, a total of 30 subjects were selected, including 15 people who performed continued regular exercises and 15 people as the control group. With regard to data processing, the IBM SPSS Statistics ver. 21.0 was used to calculate the mean and standard deviation. The difference of mean change between groups was verified through an independent t-test. As a result, there were significant differences in resting heart rate, maximal heart rate, maximal systolic blood pressure, and maximal oxygen uptake. However, the maximal systolic blood pressure was found to be an exercise-induced high blood pressure. Thus, it is thought that a risk diagnosis for it through a regular exercise stress test is necessary.
RESUMO
This study aims to examine the effects of kinesio taping (KT) on explosive muscle and sustained maximal muscle exertions of lower limbs in pre- and post-strenuous exercises (SE) up to exhaustion. Twenty healthy college males (mean age 20.4 ± 1.08 yr) participated in the experiment for both the conditions of strapping KT (KT group) and no strapping KT (control group) . They all took pre- and post-SE isokinetic tests (IK test) .<BR>The KT was strapped around muscle groups related to flexion and extension motions of a knee joint before the experiment. The effects of KT were confirmed on the exertion of the explosive muscle strength in flexion motion of post-SE, and the sustained muscle strength in pre- and post-SEs. It was inferred that the effects of KT relate to the fatigue state of muscle groups related to motion and motion types, and interpretation of these effects differs by the load intensity and the variables used for evaluation.
