Abstract

INTRODUCTION: Volleyball players repetitively use their shoulders for overhead serving, spiking and blocking, which commonly leads to shoulder pain. Overuse of the rotator cuff muscles can lead to rotator cuff tendinitis or tears, which is more commonly seen in adults than in young athletes. More often, pain from shoulder instability and resulting impingement is seen in young athletes. In addition to the rotator cuff muscles, there are also ligaments that help to stabilize the shoulder joint during movement. In volleyball, the player’s arm typically goes into extreme positions and rotations for hitting. When these muscles and ligaments are over worked and unable to restrain excessive movement of the shoulder may lead to occurrence of injuries. Resistance training (RT) can improve players’ maximal force and power production, reduce the incidence of injury, and contribute to faster injury recovery times, thereby minimizing the number of missed practice sessions and competitions. There are specific forms in which overload may be introduced during resistance training. Aim: To determine the effectiveness of resistance training using therabands and dumbbells on the strength of internal and external rotators of shoulder in male volley ball players. Objectives: To compare the pre and post values of peak torque of internal and external rotators of shoulder in subjects who have undergone resistance training using therabands and resistance training using dumbbells. Methodology: A total of 30 players were recruited in experimental and control group. The demographic data including age, height, weight were calculated through data calculation sheet. Initial evaluation of strength of shoulder internal and external rotators was done by using isokinetic analyzer. Results: After the analysis, the results revealed significant improvement of internal and external rotators P (<0.00) in experimental group than the control group. Conclusion: To compare the pre and post value of peak torque of internal and external rotators on subjects who have made resistance training using therabands and dumbbells between the experimental group and control group.
