    THE TSM MONTHLY POST TSM SERVING THE SANTA MONICA BAY AREA SINCE 1955 The Official Team Santa Monica Swim Club e-Newsletter February 2016 TEAM SANTA MONICA INJURY PREVENTION High performance in any sport carries a degree of risk. Some sports more than others but even the low impact sports like swimming need a strategy to limit and/or deal with potential or actual injury. The most common injury or complaint in swimming is shoulder pain. Shoulder function is highly dependent on the coordinated function of many muscle groups. These include the muscles around the shoulder, those that control the scapula or shoulder blade, muscles in the upper and lower back, as well as abdominal and pelvic muscles. Since the shoulder is an inherently unstable joint, muscle forces are critical for maintaining stability, proper motion, and painless function. The repetitive overhead activity of the swimming stroke can result in fatigue of these muscles. This in turn can lead to distinct changes in the function of the shoulder, resulting in the pain that is commonly known as “swimmer’s shoulder.” One of the major factors causing shoulder pain is overuse and subsequent fatigue of the rotator cuff muscles, scapular muscles, and muscles of the upper and lower back. Consequently, this fatigue can lead to shoulder instability and predispose a swimmer to shoulder pain. The risk of injury and pain is especially true for swimmers who swim with poor technique. It is well established that a comprehensive program to develop strength, endurance, balance, and flexibility of the muscles is the most important way to prevent “swimmer’s shoulder".
