Brief summary

The study is randomized and single-blinded. Ethical approval is taken from ethical committee of Riphah International University, Lahore. Participants who meet the inclusion criteria will be enrolled and allocated in group A & B through sealed envelope method by Non-probability Convenient random sampling technique. Subjects in Group A will receive closed kinetic chain exercises. Group B will receive thrower's ten exercises.

Detailed description

This study will be a randomized clinical trial duration of study will be 10 months. Data will be collected by convenient sampling technique from Pakistan cricket board. Three outcome measures will be compared by using different tools pain is measured by NPRS, mobility is measured by goniometer and performance is measured by upper limb rotation test .pre and post assessment is done Participants are divided into two groups group A undergoes closed kinetic chain exercise , group B undergoes throwers ten exercise observed values will be analyzed by using SPSS 27 software

Interventions

The group participated in 6 weeks of training session lasting for 45-50 minutes.The individual was positioned standing with the elbow joint completely extended, palm on the wall, and shoulder flexion at a 90° angle

OTHERthrower's ten exercises

Throwers ten exercise are used to improve strength and endurance of rotator cuff muscles and scapular stabilizers, pre and post assessment is done as my study will be randomized clinical trial , 5-10 minutes of warm up , 45 minutes of resistance training and 5-10 minutes of cool down is added.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Pain measure through NPRSPre and 6 week post interventionalPain measure through NPRS, The NPRS scoring system is a widely used tool in healthcare for assessing pain intensity. It typically uses a scale from 0 to 10, where 0 indicates no pain and 10 represents the worst possible pain.
Mobility measure through GoniometryPre and 6 week post interventionalMobility measure through Goniometry, Goniometry measures glenohumeral (shoulder) mobility by placing a goniometer axis on the humeral head or acromion process to score active and passive range of motion degrees. Normal adult values typically reach 170°-180° for flexion and abduction, 70°-90° for internal rotation, and 90°-100° for external rotation
performance measure through upper limb rotation testPre and 6 week post interventionalperformance measure through upper limb rotation test, The Upper Limb Rotation Test (ULRT) for the glenohumeral joint is scored by counting the total number of valid repetitions (touches) achieved across three 15-second trials. The final score is the average or sum of valid touches per side, reflecting shoulder stability, dynamic control, and trunk rotation coordination
