Abstract:The forward bending posture is a risk factor that can cause musculoskeletal injury for workers working in industry. Previous studies have been largely concerned with examining the effects of turtle neck, slouched posture, and kyphosis on the scapular upward rotators. However, no studies have investigated the effect of forward bending of the trunk on the scapular upward rotators to date. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of forward tilting of the trunk and the shoulder flexion angle on the… Show more
“…www.jkema.org of scapular upward rotators is affected by the posture and inclination of the trunk. [23][24][25] Robert-Lachaine et al 26 reported that the scapulohumeral rhythm in full-can exercise is significantly higher than that in empty-can exercise. These findings suggest that scapular and humeral movements are affected by the position of the arm.…”

Background Full-can exercise was associated with a significantly higher scapulohumeral rhythm than empty-can exercise. These findings suggest that the movements of the scapula and glenohumeral joint are affected by the position of the arm.
