Abstract des Autors
We discuss the importance of a specific strengthening program for the rotator cuff muscles in the competitive backstroke swimmer. The muscle firing pattern of 12 shoulder-girdle muscles was compared in painful and normal shoulders of competitive swimmers doing the backstroke. The key findings showed that the supraspinatus, teres minor, and subscapularis decreased their firing during pull-through in swimmers with painful shoulders, which was most likely due to impingement. At the same time, the latissimus dorsi and pectoralis major increased their activity in order to compensate for the rotator cuff and depress the humeral head. Verf.-Referat
