Abstract

The fitness benefits ascribed to weight training (WT) are well known; however, participation is not without risk. Common WT exercises often place the shoulder in unfavorable positions such as end-range external rotation (High-Five Position), predisposing the shoulder to anterior instability. This column presentswtexercise modifications designed to mitigate anterior shoulder instability.
