Objectives

Narrative objectives1

To evaluate the non-inferiority and equivalence of foot tape's flrxibility-enhancing effect on static stretching by setting the primary outcomes with straight-leg-raising (SLR) and floor-finger-distance (FFD) as indicators of hamstrings flexibility.

Type of intervention

Maneuver

Interventions/Control_1

Participants assigned to the Stretching group will be subjected to static stretching of the hamstrings. One researcher whose participant allocation is concealed will individually teach how to stretch. The frequency of treatment is to hold for 30 seconds only once.

Interventions/Control_2

kinesiology tape (NK-50, NITTO DENKO, Japan) is attached to the sole of feet of the participants assigned to the foot tape group. The tape will be applied by the same investigator who will be blinded to the participant's assignment.
