Pain, Shoulder Pain, Scapular, Abdominal Muscles
Conditions
Interventions
The training program for the control group (composed of 22 participants) will be carried out for 8 weeks, twice a week, on alternate days, with a duration of one hour. The program consists of traditio
joint mobilization (of the glenohumeral and scapulothoracic joints)
elongation of the glenohumeral capsule
muscle stretching (of the pectoralis minor and trapezius muscles). The training program of the experimental group (composed of 22 participants) will be carried out for 8 weeks, twice a week, on altern
muscle stretching (of the pectoralis minor and trapezius muscles). Core training will also be carried out (bridge exercise, lateral trunk flexion exercises, and front board).

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Evaluation of scapular kinematics (in degrees) obtained through isoinertial sensors. This assessment will be carried out at the beginning (before randomization) and at the end (after 8 weeks) of the intervention. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Pain and disability assessment (score) obtained through the SPADI questionnaire. This assessment will be performed at the beginning (before randomization) and at the end (after 8 weeks) of the intervention.;Assessment of muscle strength and power of the shoulder's internal and external rotators (in N/m and Watts) obtained using an isokinetic dynamometer. This assessment will be performed at the beginning (before randomization) and at the end (after 8 weeks) of the intervention.;Assessment of upper limb stability (in touch per second) obtained through the Closed Kinetic Chain Upper Extremity Stability test. This assessment will be performed at the beginning (before randomization) and at the end (after 8 weeks) of the intervention.;Assessment of scapular positioning (in centimeters) obtained through the length of the pectoralis minor muscle and the shoulder-table distance. This assessment will be performed at the beginning (before randomization) and at the end (after 8 weeks) of the intervention.;Assessment of glenohumeral internal rotation deficit (in degrees) obtained through goniometry. This assessment will be performed at the beginning (before randomization) and at the end (after 8 weeks) of the intervention.;Evaluation of the isometric resistance of the trunk (in seconds) obtained by means of a stopwatch. This assessment will be performed at the beginning (before randomization) and at the end (after 8 weeks) of the intervention. | — |
