Abstract
INTRODUCTION : Swimming has a distinct profile of injuries and medical conditions. The shoulder joint being the most vulnerable joint to injury. Most of the injuries arise due to repetitive microtrauma and over use, stemming from the faulty techniques executed during swimming. Important functions of the scapulae include the contribution to the glenohumeral stability, retracting and protracting the scapulae along thoracic wall, elevating the acromion, acting as a base for muscular attachment and aiding in proximal to distal transfer of energy and forces, which accounts for the optimal shoulder function. These functions are in turn dependent upon the normal functioning of the scapular stabilizing muscles. AIMS & OBJECTIVES : AIM - To measure and compare, the differences between the scapular positions within and between Elite and Recreational Swimmers. Significance of the Study : After measuring the elite and recreational by keibler I & II method there is significant different between both type of swimmer. This study the help them to know scapular muscles is being very important for swimmers to propel their body in water without any scapular muscles dysfunction. OBJECTIVES : 1. To examine and compare the measurements of the scapular positions in Recreational Swimmers by suing KEIBLER I (450) & KEIBLER II (900). 2. To examine and compare the measurements of the scapular positions in Elite Swimmers by using KEIBLER I (450) & KEIBLER II (900). 3. To compare the measurements of the scapular positions between Recreational an Elite Swimmers, when measured by both KEIBLER I (450) & KEIBLER II (900) methods. METHOD AND MEASUREMENT : There are 50 elite and 50 Recreational swimmer has participated voluntarily for this study. By using KEIBLER I (450) and KEIBLER II (900) method the measurement has been taken to examine the difference between elite and recreational. RESULT : After measuring with KEIBLER I & II the data is collected and compared between each other where there is mean difference is (P < 0.0001) but there was no significant difference between Elite and Recreational when Keibler II method is used. CONCLUSION : After examination it is found that, the scapular positions changed in both types of Elite & Recreational Swimmer but there was no difference in Recreation and Elite Swimmers’ measurements, when checked by Keibler II Method.
