Shoulder External Rotator Eccentric Training For Subacromial Pain Syndrome, Eric Chaconas
Shoulder External Rotator Eccentric Training For Subacromial Pain Syndrome, Eric Chaconas
Physical Therapy Collection
Background and Purpose: Rotator cuff weakness has been associated with subacromial pain syndrome (SAPS). The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of eccentric training, isolated to the shoulder external rotators, on strength, strength ratios, range of motion, upper quarter balance, pain, perceived function and global change.
Methods: Forty-Four participants, 19 females (mean age 46), with greater than 3 months of shoulder pain were randomized into two groups. The experimental group performed an external rotator eccentric training exercise (ETER) for three sets of 15 and a scapular retraction exercise, with a resistance band, for 2 sets of 10, …

Power Development For Golf, Scot D. Morrison, Eric Chaconas
Physical Therapy Collection
Golf is a popular sport attracting participation from all age groups. The strength and conditioning professional will often encounter golfers who are looking to improve their game through rotational power development. By gaining a sound understanding of the development of rotational power in the golfer, the exercise professional will be better able to address this need. The purpose of this article is to discuss power development principles, address golf-specific power development, and give some specific exercise options that can be implemented.

The Influence Of The Environment On Play Participation In Children With Disabilities, Marcia Hamilton
The Influence Of The Environment On Play Participation In Children With Disabilities, Marcia Hamilton
Occupational Therapy Collection
Children with disabilities face challenges with accessing opportunities to play and physical activity (Owen, 2010). Statistical evidence supports the concern for the growing issue of secondary health problems related to lack of physical activity (Cooper, 1999; Council on Disabilities, 2008; Heath, 1997; National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence, 2008; Spencer-Cavalier and Watkinson, 2010, US Department of Education, 2005). This is of further concern because of a rising incidence of disability in children (US Department of Education, 2005). This research was conducted to help provide an understanding of how children with disabilities can access play. Eleven children with moderate to …

The aim of this study was to assess gross motor abilities, classifying them in stages, of children with Down syndrome and children without developmental disorders, and to compare them with each other. Twelve children with Down syndrome, from two special schools and twelve children without development disorders, from a regular school of Caxias do Sul city, in Brazil, were evaluated.
Six gross motor abilities were assessed: balance in one foot, walking on straight line, running, jumping on one foot, throwing and catching, through the tables of Gallahue and Ozmun (2001).
The children with Down syndrome could not keep up with …
