腰帶一般使用於物料搬運作業上增加抬舉效能，以保護從業人員不致因不當的施力造成腰椎的傷害。在運動中的使用大都在舉重或健美等力量型的項目上，對豎脊肌群等需要承擔很大阻力的運動中有非常重要的作用。目的：探討划船選手使用腰帶對軀幹肌肉肌電訊號、划槳動能的影響。方法：以十名大學男性划船選手（年齡 20.27 ± 1.09 歲；身高 176.8 ± 4.98 公分；體重 71.91 ± 10.12 公斤），在安裝拉力計（Load cell）的划船測功儀上實施使用及不使用腰帶各十槳的衝刺划槳測驗，同步記錄划槳過程中豎脊肌、腹直肌與腹外斜肌肌肉肌電訊號及拉槳過程中之拉力數值。結果：（一）動力學方面：有無使用腰帶在最大力量（574.2 ± 40.7 v.s 559.5 ± 59.4 牛頓）、平均力量（984.1 ± 94.0 v.s 954.3 ± 99.5 牛頓）、時間－力量曲線（380.8 ± 29.5 v.s 368.2 ± 34.6 牛頓*秒）及斜率（3260.5 ± 410.7 v.s 3323.5 ± 420.1 牛頓/秒 ）均無顯著差異；（二）豎脊肌（0.154 ± 0.024 v.s 0.142 ± 0.032）、腹直肌（0.150 ± 0.041 v.s 0.154 ± 0.032）與腹外斜肌（0.120 ± 0.029 v.s 0.103 ± 0.043 ）正規化數值在有無使用腰帶下均無顯著差異。結論：在高強度的划船過程中，對於軀幹肌群，使用腰帶並無法減緩其負荷，也無穩定軀幹使划船效能增加。
