Abstract

Objective: Kinesio taping (KT), helps athletes move more stably and safely by providing support to muscles and joints. Thus, it allows athletes to develop more strength and speed. It also supports athletes to exercise with higher performance and have a faster recovery process. This study aims to examine the acute effect of KT applied to athletes on balance and vertical jump strength. Methods: Tests including vertical jump/leg-back strength and balance parameters of right and left one foot and two feet were applied to 19 male athletes with a mean age of 20.5±1.6 years. After taping was applied to the gluteus maximus, medius, and quadriceps muscles of the athletes, the tests were repeated. Results: A significant difference was found in all parameters (vertical jump strength p
