Other: Training group
Six teams, consisting of 13 to 25 players each, were randomized into two groups throughout their competition season; the training Group (intervention Group) and the Control Group.The intervention group completed strength training exercises Three times a week the Whole competition season.
|
Three teams participated in a seven--month, three--times--a--week shoulder--muscle strength--training program while three teams participated in a comparable handball training program but did not conduct any specific upper--body strength training.
|
Other: Control group
The three teams in the Control Group trained as normal throughout the season and participated in a comparable handball training program, but did not conduct any specific upper--body strength training

Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Shoulder pain (Visual Analogue Scale)
Time Frame: 7 months
|
Effects of this strength--training program were evaluated by comparing pre-- and post--training data from a survey on shoulder complaints based on a self--report questionnaire (quick DASH) and Visual Analogue Scale (VAS).
The players completed the VAS form on shoulder pain in the beginning of the season, then once a month throughout the season, and then in the end of the season.
