Abstract
The Effect of a Sports Baselayer with TPU (Thermoplastic Polyurethane) Bands to the Exercise Performance based on the Method of the Exercise Prescription
The test was performed before and after fitting the sports baselayer with a one week interval between tests. The anaerobic power and muscle activity of the Biceps Femoris (BF) were improved significantly using the sport base-layer. The results of the other testing items also showed a slight increase in exercise performance but the difference was not significant. The sport baselayer reinforced by the TPU power band on the main muscles of the body is believed to have a positive effect to the entire exercise
