Brief Summary  

Study design- Randomized Controlled Trial

Purpose of the study -was to evaluate the effectiveness of 6 weeks of exercise intervention on FHRS posture, muscle strength and forced vital capacity in overhead athletes

Objectives-To evaluate the effect of strength training and stretching on over head athlete having forward head rounded shoulder on posture, strength of muscles and a forced vital capacity.

Method – 54 overhead athlete with forward head rounded shoulder posture who meet the inclusion criteria were included in the study and randomly divided in to two groups the exercise intervention is given for the 6 weeks to see the effectiveness, experimental group (n=27) received strengthening and stretching training and control group received conventional neck isometric exercise (n=27)  pre and post assessment were done for posture angle CV and RS angle muscle strength of SA,LT,DNF and ER and forced vital capacity.

Result – There was significant difference in FHRS posture, muscle strength and FVC in over head athletes with strength training and stretching. The baseline values of outcome measures were suggest that the experimental groups showed statistically significant improvement in terms of FHRS posture, muscle strength and FVC than control group values.

Conclusion- study concluded that the exercise intervention given for experimental group was effective in treating FHRS posture as it improves CV and RS angle, strength of the muscles and a forced vital capacity in overhead athletes.
