RockTape Cyclists have introduced a revolutionary approach to performance kinesiology taping called PowerTaping™. Based on a “kinetic chain” approach to movement, PowerTaping is designed to reinforce the entire neuromuscular component of athletic performance. So instead of providing support to an isolated joint or muscle group, PowerTaping reinforces the entire chain of muscles, joints and nervous system components responsible for a movement pattern.

The result? Enhanced efficiency of movement, structural reinforcement of motor patterns, and improved fluid dynamics all contribute to reduced fatigue, faster recovery and improved biomechanical function.

The manual, “PowerTaping – Taping Movements, not Muscles,” provides a full introduction to the powertaping method. In addition to an excellent overview of the kinetic chain theory, it provides beautifully illustrated instructions for taping the kinetic chains for different sports. And it's performance enhancement that is legal!

Benefits of Power Taping

» Relief of swelling, edema and bruising
» Stronger activation of weak, injured or imbalanced muscle groups
» Delayed onset of fatigue
» More rapid recovery PowerTaping a Cyclist
» Improved flexibility/range of motion in tight muscles
» Regained coordination in weak or injured muscle groups
» Correction of balance inefficiencies
» Regained speed after injury or overuse
» Enhanced muscle activation (timing)
» Relief from muscle inhibition following injury or overuse
