Summary

This study aims to shed light on the supraspinatus and infraspinatus muscles, which play a significant role in rotator sheath tendinopathy and tears. It includes isometric measurements of muscle thickness, fiber length, and pennation angles, as well as muscle strength, using ultrasound to evaluate the muscle architecture of the supraspinatus and infraspinatus muscles in tennis players.

Conditions

  • Exercise
  • Muscle Weakness
  • Rotator Cuff Injuries

Interventions

exercise

The study will include 40 tennis players diagnosed with rotator cuff lesions who meet the inclusion criteria. The 1st group will be randomly divided into 2 groups as control (n=20) and 2nd group as core exercise (n=20). Unlike the control group, core exercises will be added to the routine exercise program of tennis players once a day, 3 days a week for 8 weeks.
