Abstract

Cilj ovog rada bio je istražiti učinak postavljanja kinesiotaping (KT) metode na m. gluteus medius odrazne noge s pretpostavkom da bi bolja funkcija tog mišića (obzirom na njegovu važnu ulogu u kompresiji femura u acetabulum) doprinijela boljoj posturalnoj stabilizaciji kuka i zdjelice u okviru unilateralnog vertikalnog skoka iz mjesta s pripremom. Bolja posturalna stabilizacija bi, očekivano, rezultirala većom visinom skoka i/ili većim mehaničkim izlazom angažiranih mišića. Uzorak ispitanika činio je 41 student koji su bili podijeljeni u eksperimentalnu i kontrolnu skupinu. Testiranje unilateralnog vertikalnog skoka s pripremom provedeno je na platformi za mjerenje sile, a varijable koje smo uzeli u obzir su: visina skoka (m), snaga pri odrazu (W/kg) te odrazna brzina (m/s). Razlike u veličini promjene u promatranim varijablama od prvog do drugog mjerenja, između dvaju skupina ispitanika, analizirane su ANOVA-om za ponavljana mjerenja. Zaključak ovoga rada je da KT metoda postavljena na m. gluteus medius nema značajnog pozitivnog niti negativnog utjecaja na snagu pri odrazu, odraznu brzinu te visinu unilateralnog skoka kod tjelesno aktivnih osoba mlađe životne dobi. Potencijalnih razloga zašto u ovom istraživanju KT nije utjecao na poboljšanu izvedbu unilateralnog vertikalnog skoka je nekoliko. Počevši od činjenice da se KT-om pokušalo utjecati na mišiće koji više služi u stabilizaciji kukova nego u propulziji istih, do toga da se testiranje provelo samo neposredno (15 min) nakon aplikacije KT-a. Jedan od razloga može biti što uloga m. gluteus mediusa nije krucijalna u unilateralnim vertikalnim skokovima u kvantitativnom smislu ili što su ispitanici bili zdravi bez ikakvih patologija u zglobu kuka.

Abstract (english)

The main purpose of this study was to research the effect of the kinesio taping (KT) method when put on the m. gluteus medius with the assumption that an eventually better function of this muscle (taking in consideration his important role in hip compression) would lead to a better postural stabilization of the hip during unilateral CMJ (countermovement jumps). A better postural stability would, therefore, lead to a higher jump and/or to a higher power output of the targeted muscles. The sample was made of 41 male student which were divided in one experimental and one control group. The testing was completed on a force platform that measures ground reaction forces and the observed variables were: jump height (m), take-off power (W/kg) and take-off velocity (m/s). The difference in the amount of change in the observed variables from the first to the second mesurement, between the two groups, was analyzed with ANOVA for repeated measurements. The conclusion of this paper is that Kinesio Taping applied on the m. gluteus medius don't have any relevant positive or negative impact on power at take-off power, velocity at take-off and jump height on unilateral CMJ in young healthy, physically active students. There are few potential reasons why the KT didn't improve performance in the unilateral counter-movement jump. One of them could be the fact that the tape was put on a muscle that is more important in hip stability rather than hip propulsion. Another reason could be that the function of the m. gluteus medius is not crucial in unilateral vertical jumps or that the results would be different if the subjects would have some hip pathologies.
