Recent studies have shown that KT application over quadriceps femoris muscle does not alter the magnitude of electromyographic (EMG) activity in healthy subjects 26 , 27 and

While the cross-sectional area was unaffected, the T 2 intensity in the quadriceps femoris was markedly lower in the NSAID group (∼27–35%) in the 10 days following exercise, suggesting that NSAID supplementation either accelerated the
