Brief Summary

The aim of this study was to compare the parameters of scapular muscular endurance, scapular stabilization, scapular dyskinesia, upper extremity functional status and postural alignment of adult women aged between 40-65 years old who were performing clinical pilates exercises regularly compared with sedentary adult women in the same age group and to determine whether regular exercise had an effect on these parameters.
