Скачать или смотреть Does swimming create imbalances in the rotator cuff muscles??

Swim and strength coaches are often focused on improving shoulder internal rotation to improve range of motion and position for the early vertical forearm. In addition to mobility it’s important to consider the rotator cuffs role in centering and stabilizing the shoulder during powerful arm strokes from the larger muscle groups. It’s well documented the internal rotators often become over developed and dominant at the expense of external rotation, leading to potential shoulder issues throughout the season. Here’s a few drills to consider adding to your in-season arm care program to maintain that balance. Thanks to physiotherapist @danielmoedas for these great examples working with the Portoguese national team.

Does a water-training macrocycle really create imbalances in swimmers’ shoulder rotator muscles?
