简要总结
The purpose of this study is to determine if stabilizing the scapula (shoulder blade) during a common shoulder stretch is more effective at improving shoulder range of motion than not stabilizing the scapula. Investigators hypothesize that scapular stabilization during horizontal adduction stretching will demonstrate greater gains in shoulder range of motion than stretching without scapular stabilization.

结局指标
主要结局
Change in Posterior Shoulder Tightness
时间窗: Change from baseline posterior shoulder tightness to immediately following manual stretching. The baseline is measured, followed by 3 stretches held for 25 seconds and then the follow up measure is taken. This is the conclusion of this measure.
An inclinometer is used to measure posterior shoulder tightness.
次要结局
- Change in Internal Rotation(Change from baseline internal rotation to immediately following manual stretching. The baseline is measured, followed by 3 stretches held for 25 seconds and then the follow up measure is taken. This is the conclusion of this measure.)
