Abstract:

In order to study the relationship between lower limb muscle fatigue and clothing pressureduring running sports, thirty females were employed as subjects.Their lower kimb musches' clothing pressure and surface electromyography data were measured objectively in the state of running sports when wearing sports pant of different clothing pressures. The results show that there is a correlation between root mean square and muscle fatigue status. The increase of clothing pressure has the effect on alleviate of muscle fatigue, and effects focus on the middle and late of the running. In view of relation tested part, effects vary depending on the site simultaneously, and vastus lateralis muscle affected most visibly due to larger clothing pressure.

Key words: clothing pressure, lower limb, muscle fatigue, surface electromyography, running sport
