SCJ 43.1 Progressive Exercise Strategies to Mitigate Shoulder Injuries Among Weight-Training Participants
Nontraumatic shoulder disorders are prevalent among weight-training participants
as a result of training patterns as well as adaptive shoulder joint and muscle characteristics. This article presents a progressive approach to exercises designed to mitigate well-known joint and muscle characteristics that have been associated with shoulder disorders. Using a progressive evidence based model, practical applications are presented that will guide sports medicine and strength training professionals in their ability to provide an evidence informed upper extremity weight-training program for both patients and clients.
