The effect of two common corrective and scapular-focused training approaches on shoulder strength, range of motion, proprioception, shoulder girdle function, and scapulohumeral rhythm in female athletes with scapular dyskinesis

to compare the effects of two common corrective exercises and scapular-focused approaches on the strength, range of motion, and proprioception of the shoulder joint, shoulder girdle function, and scapulo-humeral rhythm in female athletes who are suffering from scapular dyskinesis.

The present study has three groups: Intervention group 1: common corrective exercises. Intervention group 2: scapular-focused exercises, and control group: no exercise. This study is a randomized controlled trial with a control group, with parallel groups and with a sample size of 36 people.

The first stage was the selection of subjects based on the inclusion criteria; the second stage was random grouping with blinding of subjects; the third stage was the pre-test; the fourth stage was two months of training; the fifth stage was the post-test. The testing and training locations were the laboratory of the Faculty of Physical Education, Shahid Bahonar University, Kerman, and the Palladium Club and Ardeshir Hemmati Club in Kerman, respectively.

Inclusion criteria People with scapular dyskinesis confirmed by the McClure test exclusion criteria Acute injury to the scapula and shoulder, including fractures and dislocations A history of injury to the aforementioned area in the past six months A history of shoulder surgery Receiving any type of rehabilitation and exercise therapy in the past six months Having pain greater than 3 on the VAS scale

Experimental group 1:common corrective exercises, Experimental group 2: scapular-focused exercises, and Control group: No exercise.

Shoulder joint strength; shoulder joint range of motion; shoulder joint proprioception; shoulder girdle function and scapulo-humeral rhythm

The researcher randomly assigns the subjects to one of three study groups, including the corrective exercise program, the scapular-focused program, and the control group, using the website (https://www.randomizer.org). On this website, the researcher must complete the relevant information and then click the calculate button. Questions and answers include: How many sets of numbers do you want to generate? 3. How many numbers per set? 12. Number range: 1-36. Do you wish each number in a set to remain unique? Yes. Do you wish to sort the numbers that are generated? No. The result of the calculation will be 3 sets of 12 unique numbers in each set.
