Seven women and 9 men taekwondo athletes forming the Turkish National Taekwondo Team participated in this study. A closed basket weave taping technique was applied to the dominant and non-dominant ankle. Tests were performed both in un-taped and taped conditions. Peak torques values at 60 and 180 degrees/s were nonsignificantly lower in the taped condition (p > 0.05). Ankle taping resulted also is a significant reduction in jump height (p < 0.05). The findings of this study suggest that ankle taping affect detrimentally performance in this group of taekwondo athletes.en10.3233/IES-2009-0336info:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessIsokinetic strengthtaekwondotapingvertical jumpArticle1727378Q3WOS:000267950800004Q4
