THE ROTATOR CUFF MUSCLES ✍️.

✅ The four rotator cuff muscles are the supraspinatus, infraspinatus, teres minor, and subscapularis. These muscles surround the shoulder joint, connecting the scapula (shoulder blade) to the humerus (upper arm bone). Their main functions are to stabilize the shoulder joint and enable a wide range of motion, such as lifting, rotating, and moving your arm.

✅ Rotator cuff muscles and their functions:

Supraspinatus: Initiates the lifting of your arm away from your body (abduction). It is the most commonly injured rotator cuff muscle.

Infraspinatus: Helps externally rotate your arm (rotating your arm outward).

Teres minor: Also helps with external rotation of the arm and adduction.

Subscapularis: The largest of the four, this muscle performs internal rotation of the arm (rotating your arm inward) and helps secure the arm during pushing and lifting movements.

A Surge In Overuse Injuries

Year-round sports are a way of life for many and involve people across all age groups. From elite professionals and athletes with an avid interest to casual participants and folks who simply want to stay fit, all are at risk for cumulative trauma disorders (CTDs). CTDs are generally described as tissue damage resulting from repetitive demand over the course of time. The term refers to a vast array of diagnoses stemming from occupational, recreational, and habitual activities.

It was established more than 100 years ago that biological tissues adapt to the level of stress placed upon them. Today, researchers such as Lorimer Moseley call that process “bioplasticity.” All kinds of injuries, such as tennis elbow, runner’s knee, and “pulled” hamstrings, can occur due to overuse. Shear, torsion, compression, tension, and bending are the injury mechanisms we tend to see in such cases. Mechanical strain in tendons, ligaments, nerves, and other connective tissues results in...
