Thera-Band application changes muscle activity and kyphosis and scapular winging during knee push-up plus in subjects with scapular winging

Abstract: Scapular winging (SW) is defined as increased prominence of the whole medial border of the scapula. Many researchers recently recommended knee push-up plus (KPP) for enhancing serratus anterior (SA) activation. However, during push-up plus, thoracic kyphosis (TK) may usually occur as a compensatory movement. Thus, the purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of Thera-Band application during KPP on rectus abdominis (RA) activity, TK angle (TKA), SA activity, and amount of SW in subjects with SW.Fifte… Show more

“…The long thoracic nerve characteristically arises from 5th to 7th cervical nerve root [23]. The serratus anterior muscle weakness is innervated by the long thoracic nerve, which is important in controlling and maintaining normal scapulohumeral rhythm [24]. During the shoulder flexion, the serratus anterior muscle assists in the upward rotation and keeps the scapula to the thorax [25,26].…”

“…Individuals were considered eligible if they had scapular winging which was measured by using a scapulometer. If the medial border of the scapula protruded by a distance ≥ 2 cm from the posterior thoracic rib cage in a quadruped position, the scapula was considered to have winging [9]. The scapulometer was positioned on the T5 spinous process and measurement was performed between the scapular medial border and spinous process.…”
