Shoulder Endurance Assessment in Upper Limb Athletes

May 19, 2023 updated by: Camille Tooth, University of Liege

Relation Between Different Tests Aimed to Assess Shoulder Endurance in Upper Limb Athletes

The objective of this study is to explore the relationship between two different "fatigue tests" (Xco Endurance Test and Shoulder Endurance Test) and strength/endurance of shoulder rotators muscles, measured with an isokinetic device.

The tests will be organized during two different sessions, in a randomized order. One session will be dedicated to isokinetic evaluation. The other one will include the performance of the two functional tests.
