Effects of a dry-land strengthening exercise program with elastic bands following the Kabat D2 diagonal flexion pattern for the prevention of shoulder injuries in swimmers

Ivan Della Tommasina,

et al.

Abstract: Background: During the repetitive execution of the swimming strokes, the muscles responsible for the internal rotations of the shoulders tend to become stronger compared to the muscles that oppose these movements. The aim of this study was to analyse the effect of a strengthening program for the shoulder rotator muscles using elastic band exercises in a diagonal Kabat pattern (D2 for flexion) in swimmers, to develop an effective, quick and easy-to-implement protocol for preventive training routines.Methods: A … Show more

“…Kabat diagonals are internal and external rotation movements of the shoulder. According to Della Tommasina et al [40], a repetitive process of these movements is necessary to perform physiotherapy, from which a more effective range of motion recovery will be obtained [41]. The elbow and shoulder are the upper limbs' main joints, articulating the arm's largest segments.…”
