Abstract(s)
The stability of the shoulder complex demands the contribution of scapular and glenohumeral muscles. After rotator cuff surgical repair, the self-assisted forward elevation adapted from Neer protocol is usually performed in the rehabilitation process. Once there is a lack of information that describes the muscle activity during the descendent phase of the exercise, it is important to make this analysis and define the most effective progression for the exercise. To analyse the muscle activity variation timings and level of activity in supine and semi-sit position with short and long lever, during the descendent phase of the self-assisted forward elevation of the Neer protocol.
