Recruitment of Shoulder Complex and Torso Stabilizer Muscles With Rowing Exercises Using a Suspension Strap Training System.

Background: Suspension training systems, which use body weight resistance under unstable conditions, may be effective for muscle strengthening in persons with scapular dyskinesis or subacromial impingement syndrome.

Hypothesis: Greater arm, scapular, and trunk muscle recruitment will occur during horizontal abduction row exercises.

Study Design: Descriptive laboratory study.
