Two primary observations were made of athletes wearing Goode Wraps compared to placebo wraps. One involved a standing vertical jump and the other place kicking a football. Two motor tasks, vertical jumping and kicking, with two different athletes were investigated.
A NAC 400 High Speed Video Recording System was utilized to record ten kicks and jumps. In addition, the vertical jump was measured with a Kistler force plate. Each was tested 5 times with/and without the semiconductor imbedded wraps. The results for both were digitized utilizing an Ariel Performance Analysis System (ASPAS).
The vertical jumper wore ankle wraps, knee wraps and compression shorts. The kicker wore knee wraps.
The vertical jump results showed average jump height, vertical take-off velocity and vertical push-off impulse to be greater in the semiconductor jumps. Comparison of the best semiconductor and best control jumps revealed larger vertical impulse—resulting in larger vertical take-off velocity and jump height for the semiconductor jump. The kicking results showed that maximum ball velocity, knee joint angular velocity, and thigh and shank angular velocities at contact were larger in the semiconductor kicks.
Paired t-test, however, showed that the differences between the two conditions were not statistically significant (p greater than .05). Although no significant performance improvement was found, trends in the data suggest that external application of semiconductors may have a positive effect on motor performance. It is recommended that a larger study be undertaken to further illuminate the subject.

They are elasticized cloth bands or sports wraps. Each of these is impregnated with a unique blend of natural rare earth semiconductors that increase circulation to reduce pain or prevent swelling. Goode Wraps are available for the foot, ankle, knee, elbows, and wrist. In fact, the semiconductors can be added to almost any cloth like material.
