Investigation of the Effect of Foam Roller and Kinesiotape Application on Performance Parameters, Pain and Fatigue With Football Players

Investigation of the Effect of Foam Roller and Kinesiotape Application on Performance Parameters, Pain and Fatigue

The aim of our study is to compare the effects of foam roller plus dynamic stretching and kinesiotape plus dynamic stretching on performance parameters,pain and fatigue in football players. The results of our study will show the effects of the best choice between applications and help to reduce waste of time.

The aim of our study is to compare the effects of foam roller plus dynamic stretching and kinesiotape plus dynamic stretching on performance parameters,pain and fatigue in football players. The results of our study will show the effects of the best choice between applications and help to reduce waste of time. Performance parameters include; flexibility, dynamic reaction time, sprint and agility.

The hypotheses the investigators will test for this purpose; H1: Foam Roller application is more effective on performance parameters than Kinesiotape application. H2: Foam Roller application is more effective on pain than Kinesiotape application. H3: Foam Roller application is more effective on fatigue than Kinesiotape application.
