Strength and Endurance
Conditions
Brief summary
The objective of this study is to explore the relationship between two different fatigue tests (Xco Endurance Test and Shoulder Endurance Test) and strength/endurance of shoulder rotators muscles, measured with an isokinetic device. The tests will be organized during two different sessions, in a randomized order. One session will be dedicated to isokinetic evaluation. The other one will include the performance of the two functional tests.
Interventions
OTHERRealization of the 3 tests
The participants will have to perform the isokinetic evaluation during one session and the two functional tests during another session. Those sessions will be separated by 14 days.
