SCAPULAR (MIS)ALIGNMENT In our video you will learn about the function of different muscles acting on the scapula and classical 'dysfunctions' of the scapula described in the literature and their suspected underlying courses. Be aware that there is a big prevalence of scapula dyskinesis in non-overhead athletes with 33% and even more in overhead athletes with 61% (Burn et al. 2016). So in a lot of cases scapuly dyskinesis might be a functional adaption rather than a contributing factor to should

💪 Scapular Retraction – Anatomy in Action We explore the anatomy of scapular retraction, highlighting the muscles and movements involved in drawing the shoulder blades toward the spine. 📚 It’s part of the Anatomy Programme on Physiopedia Plus, ideal for clinicians and students focused on upper body mechanics and postural control. 👉 Subscribe to access the full programme: https://members.physio-pedia.com/why-physioplus/ #ScapularRetraction #ShoulderAnatomy #AnatomyProgramme #PhysiopediaPlus #J

Why Train Scapular Retraction? 🏋️‍♂️🦴 Most people focus on pulling with their arms, but neglect the crucial role of the scapula in upper-body strength and shoulder health. 💪 The Cable Scapular Retraction specifically targets the rhomboids and middle trapezius, muscles that are key for stability, control, and efficient pulling mechanics. 🦾 Pro Tip: Don’t just pull with your hands. Focus on squeezing your shoulder blades together. 👐 This shifts the effort from your arms to the muscles that st
