Twenty participants (N = 20) were recruited among USM staff and randomly divided into two groups, exercise group (n = 10; age = 40.10 ± 5.363 years old; BMI: 33.30 ± 4.90 kg/m2) and control group (n = 10; age = 44.30 ± 6.913; BMI: 29.0 ± 4.00 kg/m2). This experimental study use comparative analysis of pre and post-training. During both pre and post-training, a few measurements were carried out, passive 90°/90° test (hamstring flexibility), vertical jump test (muscle strength) and squat test (muscle power). Participants in the exercise group performed eccentric training using thera-band on both legs three times per week for eight weeks while participants in the control group did not perform any exercise. The data collected were analysed using paired and independent t test to measure significant differences between groups and within group. As a result, the exercise group showed significant increase (p < 0.05) in both left and right hamstring flexibility after the eight weeks of intervention. However, muscle strength and power did not significantly (p > 0.05) affected by eight weeks of eccentric training.

    ORIGINAL RESEARCH SHOULDER EXTERNAL ROTATOR ECCENTRIC TRAINING VERSUS GENERAL SHOULDER EXERCISE FOR SUBACROMIAL PAIN SYNDROME: A RANDOMIZED CONTROLLED TRIAL IJSPT Eric J. Chaconas, PT, PhD1 Morey J. Kolber, PT, PhD2 William J. Hanney, PT, DPT, PhD1 Matthew L. Daugherty, PT, DPT1 Stanley H. Wilson, PT, EdD4 Charles Sheets, PT1 ABSTRACT Background: Shoulder pain affects up to 67% of the population at some point in their lifetime with subacromial pain syndrome (SAPS) representing a common etiology. Despite a plethora of studies there remains conflicting evidence for appropriate management of SAPS. Purpose: To compare outcomes, for individuals diagnosed with SAPS, performing a 6-week protocol of eccentric training of the shoulder external rotators (ETER) compared to a general exercise (GE) protocol. Study Design: Randomized controlled trial Methods: Forty-eight individuals (mean age 46.8 years +/–17.29) with chronic shoulder pain, and a clinical diagnosis of SAPS were randomized into either an experimental group performing ETER or a control group performing a GE program. The intervention lasted for six weeks, and outcomes were measured after three weeks, six weeks, and again at six months post intervention. Results: The primary outcome of function, measured by the Western Ontario Rotator Cuff Index, demonstrated a significant interaction effect derived from a multilevel hierarchical model accounting for repeated measures favoring the experimental group at week 3: 14.65 (p=.003), Week 6: 17.04 (p<.001) and six months: 15.12 (p=.007). After six months, secondary outcome measures were improved for Numeric Pain Rating Scale levels representing pain at worst (p=.006) and pain on average (p=0.02), external rotator (p<.001), internal rotator (p=0.02), and abductor strength (p<.001).

METHODS: N=12 men and women completed a traditional (TRAD), concentric (CONC), and eccentric (ECC) full-body resistance workout at 65% of a measured 1 repetition max with each condition matched for work. During each condition, the subject was fitted to a metabolic cart and metabolic variables were recorded through indirect calorimetry and heart rate monitor. Blood glucose and blood lactate were taken at five different stages.
