AN INDIVIDUAL WHO HAS SUSTAINED A SHOULDER INJURY WILL ENCOUNTER NUMEROUS PROFESSIONALS THROUGHOUT THE RECOVERY PROCESS. TO OPTIMIZE OUTCOMES, THESE PROFESSIONALS NEED TO HAVE A FUNDAMENTAL UNDERSTANDING OF THE COMPLETE RECOVERY PROCESS OF COMMON SHOULDER PATHOLOGIES, RANGING FROM INITIAL INJURY MECHANISMS, SURGICAL CONSIDERATIONS, AND POSTOPERATIVE/REHABILITATION MANAGEMENT TO CONSIDERATIONS OF POSTREHABILITATION DESIGN. ALL PROFESSIONALS INVOLVED WILL GREATLY BENEFIT FROM BEING AWARE OF EACH OTHER'S PRIMARY ROLES AND LIMITATIONS. THIS ARTICLE AIMS TO LINK THE ENTIRE SPECTRUM OF RECOVERY FROM COMMON SHOULDER PATHOLOGIES, FROM INJURY, TO POSTREHABILITATION DESIGN.

Postrehabilitation Strength and Conditioning of the Shoulder: An Interdisciplinary Approach

ABSTRACT Artificial intelligence (AI) and chatbot technologies have rapidly emerged with promising applications in public health, including developing personal lifestyles and exercise routines. This article examines the effectiveness of AI-based chatbot platforms to generate personalized exercise regimens. Chatbots are freely accessible to users with Internet access and may be more cost-effective than a personal trainer. This review highlights multiple examples of AI being used to offer fitness advice, supplement athletic coaching, and create everyday exercise routines. The results of these studies demonstrate a positive outlook on using AI for strength and conditioning applications, for personal and professional use. Despite having the potential to replace personal fitness trainers for everyday users and athletes alike, more extensive research should be performed using AI combined with physicians, personal trainers, and nutritionists to determine areas where AI can be further optimized. More research focusing on the effectiveness of AI-generated routines for the everyday user may further validate the potential for chatbot-mediated exercise. This brief review aims to evaluate the efficacy of AI-generated personalized fitness regimens, emphasizing physical fitness, athletic performance, and overall physical and mental well-being. The video abstract for this article can be found in the video SDC 1.

ABSTRACT Wheelchair basketball (WCB) is one of the most popular sports for athletes with disabilities. Athletes with a wide range of disabilities compete in the sport, making WCB highly inclusive while presenting unique challenges for various aspects of performance support. This review aims to provide an overview of the existing literature on physical characteristics and competition demands of elite WCB athletes to provide practitioners with the best physical preparation practices for improving performance. Many physical characteristics and capacities have been reported to improve performance and are useful for setting performance benchmarks. Assessment of these capacities in WCB athletes requires special considerations due to the impacts of individual disabilities and interactions between the athlete and the wheelchair. Profiling WCB athletes also requires understanding the competitive demands that cannot be extrapolated from nondisabled basketball. To track game movements, this review describes previous studies tracking game movements with various tracking devices, and recent studies have identified inertial sensors as an accurate and practical option. Athletes' internal responses to game demands vary based on disability, particularly spinal cord injuries, so special considerations for internal load monitoring include implementing individualized monitoring strategies.

Physical Characteristics and Competition Demands of Elite Wheelchair Basketball

ABSTRACT Despite continued success, female athletes are still underresourced and minoritized in research and applied spaces. This has translated to disparate injury and health outcomes among female athletes resulting from a sport infrastructure built on male physiology. The purpose of this article is to propose an evidence- and experience-based menstrual cycle (MC) phase–based training model for practitioners working with elite female athletes in team sport. Here, we provide physiological rationale, privacy considerations, and best practices to support female-centric training. The following model proposes periodization based on a theorized capacity of adaptation rather than acute performance or symptomology alone because evidence suggests that performance changes across the MC may be highly individual. In addition, strength and conditioning programs are formulated to balance stressors and recovery in the pursuit of optimal adaptation, irrelevant of acute exercise performance. Finally, we identify future directions for applied practitioners and researchers, and the potential need for collaborative innovations between the communities. Creating a training model based on the physiology and experience of female athletes communicates to female athletes that they belong in sport and are worthy of our time, attention, and resources to improve their health, safety, and performance now and through active retirement.

Menstrual Cycle Phase–Based Strength &amp; Conditioning Training for Elite Team Sport Female Athletes

ABSTRACT This review briefly outlines the benefits and limitations of traditional methods for prescribing resistance training (RT) exercise intensity (i.e., the percentage of 1 repetition maximum, velocity-based training, and rating of perceived exertion) for special populations based on mechanical and psychological indicators. Given these limitations, the repetition in reserve (RIR) method, which quantifies the discrepancy between potential and actual repetitions, has been proposed as a safer, more effective, and adaptable alternative to optimize RT in special populations. This study provides an overview of the main RIR scales used in scientific literature and synthesizes RIR validation studies. Although the validity and reliability of the RIR method have not been extensively tested across different special populations, and a scarcity of studies applying it in clinical contexts has been detected, this review proposes a practical application that integrates existing scales for prescribing RT in rehabilitation settings and for individuals with chronic health conditions. In conclusion, the RIR method shows promise for broader application in clinical settings, and further research is needed to validate its effectiveness in diverse population groups.

ABSTRACT This article provides the first academic history of the barbell back squat and its evolution from a bodyweight exercise in the 19th century to a loaded exercise, used for a variety of purposes, in the present age. In doing so, the article highlights 3 key drivers in the evolution of the back squat—those being changes in equipment, the diversification of strength sports, and scientific communication concerning the safety and efficacy of the movement. The goal of this article was not to provide a dry and irrelevant history but rather to stress the complexity of the squat's prominence within fitness programs and the need to hold a nuance view toward the “optimal” way to approach this movement. In doing so, it examines how the movement evolved from 1 primarily done on the tips of one's toes, to a loaded movement on tippy toes, to a flat footed movement. By contextualizing the back squat's history, this article challenges rigid notions of “correct” squatting technique and encourages a more nuanced understanding of exercise selection in strength and conditioning practice. It concludes by highlighting the importance of critically examining the social construction of knowledge in fitness and sport, and the value of historical perspective in informing contemporary training practices.

ABSTRACT The isometric midthigh pull (IMTP) is a commonly used strength diagnostic tool that can give insight into an athlete's force-generating capacities. The resulting force-time curves generated are commonly analyzed using commercial software packages that provide a variety of metrics. Although these software packages are useful, they are often costly and operate as a “black box,” limiting the control over how these metrics are calculated. A template created in Excel can be used to analyze isometric data. However, creating a custom script to analyze isometric trials can be more time-efficient. To provide users with an alternative analysis option, this article provides a guide for selecting IMTP force-time curves and variables for analysis and how to use Python to perform these analyses. Basic procedures are provided to ensure that accurate force-time curves are selected and analyzed, followed by strategies for using Python to read files, filter data, calculate force-time curve variables, graphically present data, and write results to a report are discussed. Although the script provided can be used to analyze the IMTP force-time curve data, it can be modified to examine other metrics as needed by the user (see, Supplemental Digital Content 1, http://links.lww.com/SCJ/A412).
