Great to watch all your videos. A slight reminder for testing rotation shoulder by slightly positioning into flexion if focus is on deep rotator cuff. Thanks dears

[@ehsanwasi]

Thanks sir you are a good man

[@k_a_y_l_e_e]

short and sweet yet, incredibly informative. very useful for someone like me who's in the process of learning this as a new skill. much appreciated.

Thank you, anything that I want to look up going through my course, you guys have it all- incredible volume of content!

[@Physiotutors]

😎

[@copernicus99]

Excellent videos! Could you PLEASE do a video which discusses shoulder exercises that should be omitted from resistance training protocols due to the risks involved to the shoulder complex, and recommended modifications to exercises to increase safety for shoulders? That would be most helpful and appreciated!

[@Physiotutors]

You are reading our minds ;--) we are currently developing our exercise videos! you can expect content on these topics soon!

[@copernicus99]

Great! As one who is addicted to the iron game, one of my primary concerns is avoiding injury in the gym, so I'm very much looking forward to them!

[@HeyIntegrity]

Can you do best positions for isometric strengthening rather than just testing. Especially for anterior deltoid, posterior deltoid,teres major, etc

[@SuperLars3n]

is it a good way to also test the flexion/extension, abd/add bilaterally as you do in the elevation/depression, protraction/retraction?

[@Physiotutors]

You always want to compare sides. Some people argue that it's hard to distinguish both sides when testing at the same time and with different hands (left+right). Others say they can compare better when the movements are tested at the same time. Up to you if you know what you are doing and have a good reason for it.

In how many days after surgery we can use this is there any gravity eliminated positions

really helpful👍👍👍👍

[@Physiotutors]

+Saad Majid thanks 🙏🏼

[@johnosullivan1782]

Really good video but would be great if you guys could have done a small bit of detail into why you guys are performing the exercises .

[@Physiotutors]

Hey John, The goal of Resisted Isometric Testing is to find out whether the pain is myogenic, meaning coming from the muscle/tendon.

[@johnosullivan1782]

Awesome, thank you. Also how long do you provide resistance for in terms of seconds ?

[@Physiotutors]

+John O sullivan usually around 3 seconds

[@johnosullivan1782]

Thanks you!

[@rasmiathaw3583]

Thank you 😍

[@Physiotutors]

No worries

[@sumalatha7859]

Too good to learn practically 😍❤tq

[@draishwaryaa8242]

Are resisted isometrics used to rule out different muscles which could be a structural impairment in a given case?

[@Physiotutors]

Not specific enough for single shoulder muscles. It can give you a quick impression though about musculotendinous involvement and strength even though reliability is not too high.

[@draishwaryaa8242]

@@Physiotutors Thank you!

[@junedmansuri1486]

Can u pls provide details of isometric MVC test..??

[@Physiotutors]

check out our video on the MRC scale which might answer your question

[@natalieaceves8408]

Are you basically doing manual muscle testing to assess strength?

[@Physiotutors]

Yes, more or less

[@nilooniloo7159]

Oh no.why i didn't watch this before my exam😓😓 i did it wrong...

[@Physiotutors]

Now you know where to find us for future exams!;)
