Brief Summary

Purpose of the study:

• To investigate the effect of rotator cuff training on hand grip strength in adults with different body mass index.
• To investigate the effect of rotator cuff training on hand grip static endurance in adults with different body mass index.
• To investigate the effect of rotator cuff training on hand grip dynamic endurance in adults with different body mass index.
• To investigate the effect of rotator cuff training on upper limb function in adults with different body mass index.

Conditions

Hand Grasp

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• Hand grip strength

  The JAMAR Hydraulic hand dynamometer is used to measure hand grip strength in (Kg) , It will be evaluated before and after training for each subject in both groups. Each subjects will be asked to grasp the handle with the dominant hand and perform hand grip with maximum effort only during exhalation and after a verbal cue given by the examiner " one, two, three, go". The subjects will be instructed to maintain maximum contraction for 5 seconds. Three measurements will be taken with a rest interval of 60 seconds between trials in order to avoid muscle fatigue during the assessment and the average of the three measurements will be calculated to measure hand grip strength.

  up to six weeks

Secondary Outcomes (3)

• Hand grip static endurance

  up to six weeks

• Hand grip dynamic endurance

  up to six weeks

• Upper limb function

  up to six weeks

Study Arms (2)

open chain exercises for rotator cuff muscles and advices for postural correction

EXPERIMENTAL

Group will be subdivided into three subgroups according to their body mass index to normal, over weight and obese type1. All subjects will receive open chain exercises for rotator cuff muscles and advices for postural correction.
