Limitations and advice
DOMS, muscle overstretching, pain, DOMS muscle damage, spasms, muscle fatigue
There are several limitations to the present study. First of all, this study only tested the blood outcomes at 48 h but did not analyze the blood outcomes for 72 h, which may also have a certain impact on the reliability of the conclusion. Secondly, due to the difficulty in controlling the amplitude and the height of the jump during the DOMS modeling process, the effect after the jump may be inconsistent and the results may be biased. Thirdly, the sample size of this study is relatively small. To increase the universality, it is necessary to expand the research participants, increase the sample size, and observe more deeply the short-term and long-term effects and action mechanisms of KT and CS application schemes.The mechanism of action of KT is to affect the tension force of the skin and promote blood circulation through the density difference of the patch when sticking. Reasonable use can enhance the contractility of damaged muscles, eliminate local pain, reduce muscle overstretching, and reduce muscle fatigue and spasms. The function of CS is to wrap the muscles, contract and gather the muscle groups, and make the muscles more powerful. It can provide good support for muscles, reduce muscle shaking, and achieve local protection, provide stability. The method adopted by CSKTG is to use CS combined with KT. Since both CS and KT are elastic, KT plays a role in direct contact with the skin. At this time, the position of CS is applied on top of KT. Since the two methods are superimposed, because of the CS cover, KT may it cannot play a normal role. On the other hand, from the experimental results, it can be seen that CS combined with KT has a better effect on preventing DOMS, and the superimposed effect of the two is better than that of CS or KT alone. It can be explained that there are similarities in the working principles of KT and CS. At the same time, KT may make CS more fit within a reasonable range and may enhance the stability and effectiveness of CS. Therefore, whether the application of CS on KT will limit the functionality of KT needs further experiments to verify.In this study, male participants without systematic training were selected, in the later research, female participants can be studied to test the reliability of the results; It is suggested that KT and CS can be carried out after DOMS caused by different sports in the future. In addition, the mechanism of KT and CS to prevent DOMS muscle damage needs to be further elucidated.
