Evaluation of muscle activity and predisposition to pain in male volleyball players
Shoulder injuries in volleyball are one of the most common due to the extreme articular ranges involved in the plays of this sport. Currently, there are not many studies that can provide information for the resolution of this problem. This study proposed using surface electromyography and accelerometry to analyze flexion and abduction gestures in a group of 13 players, whit electromyography it evaluated muscle contribution in right and left shoulder and accelerometry evaluated motor control index. It was found that this group of players does not present a predisposition to pain, or pathological movements because the muscle contribution and motor control index don`t have alterations. The anterior deltoid contributes mainly to the flexion movement and the middle deltoid for abduction.
