When does shoulder strength testing change your treatment plan? Our clinical perspective @JaredPowell12 @JeremyLewisPT see link for full text 👉tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.…

@JeremyLewisPT @King2980 @Luke_Emmett Can we trust pain-free shoulder force measurements? Hot off the press -jospt.org/doi/10.2519/josptm… The key finding: People were ranked fairly consistently, but readings varied substantially—even with the same clinician in the same session.

Thanks for the kind words 👍🏼

Hot off the press 📝 discussing the role of strength testing in RCRSP - open access: tandfonline.com/doi/epdf/10.… @JeremyLewisPT @JaredPowell12 Thanks to @jmmtonline for the opportunity 🙏

Many congratulations 👏

@JaredPowell12 thanks for posting 👍🏻 Can I ask why you favour resistance training? Personal preference? Based on supporting evidence? Thanks

Patients/clients often want fixing too, which probably drives therapists to try and take the role of the fixer somehow🤷‍♂️ Then when it ‘works’ and a person gets better it’s a self-fulfilling prophecy

🙏Thanks

Great thank you so much for sharing!

In other words...If I set up a trial comparing two weekly time-efficient resistance training programmes to treat shoulder pain that last 6 weeks - is that long enough to see an expected effect on strength??? Thanks

Thanks! I'm aware of Iverson and @BradSchoenfeld 's work on time-efficient training - do we know the minimal number of weeks we need to train prior to seeing significant gains in strength??

Thanks for sharing. Do we have data on how many weeks training we need to perform before we see a significant improvement in strength? Thinking along the lines of minimal effective dose?? 1/week for ?weeks to see sig change??

Practical implication - could a trial get away with 1 session per muscle group per week for 6 weeks to see improvements in strength in that muscle group? Trying to think of ways to boost adherence. 2/week for 12 weeks seems unrealistic for general population in a clinical setting

Do we have data on frequency and duration of training to see significant gains in strength for untrained individuals? Does 3 sessions/week for 12 weeks provide significantly more strength gains than 1 session/week for 6 weeks? Does matching weekly volume matter for strength?
