Abstract: Objective: To study the effect of Kinesio Taping for rowing athletes with muscular fatigue. Methods: 16 elite athletes from Beijing Rowing Team participated in the study. Using the methods of muscle detection and blood biochemical indexes to test athletes' fatigue state immediately after exercise, 12 hours after exercise and 36 hours after exercise. Results: 12 hours after exercise, both the elasticity of left trapezius of experiment group and the stiffness of left biceps and left trapzius of the experiment group decreased significantly as compared with those of control group (P<0.01); both the elasticity of right biceps and the stiffness of right trapezius of experiment group decreased significantly as compared with those of control group (P<0.05). 36 hours after exercise, the disappearance rate of CK in experiment group was significantly higher than that in control group (P<0.01). Conclusion: Kinesio Taping has positive effect in changing muscular fatigue, eliminating CK. The longer it is used, the better the effect.
