|
Purpose : This study was to investigated the effect of intensive serratus anterior muscle and lower trapezius muscle training with Thera-band on muscle activation and height of shoulder in people with round shoulder.
Method : Sixteen students with rounded shoulder were recruited in D college and randomly allocated both groups. Both serratus anterior training group(n=8) and lower trapezius group(n=8) were performed intensive muscle training with Thera-band for 6 weeks(10 sessions/time, 3times/week, total 18 times). We measured height of shoulder and muscle activation with EMG MR 3.8 software(NORAXON Desktop DTS, USA) for comparing the results of pre-post training.
Result : There were significant difference on scapular height and muscle activation in both serratus anterior group and lower trapezius group(p<0.05). However, in correlation between height of shoulder and muscle activation, we could not find significant difference in both group(p>0.05).
Conclusion : This study indicated that both of serratus anterior muscle and lower trapezius muscle intensive
training using Thera-band effect the improvement rounded shoulder in college students.
