This study aimed to determine the absolute and relative reliability of concentric and eccentric flexion, extension, horizontal abduction, and adduction movements of the shoulder using a functional electromechanical dynamometer (FEMD). Forty-three active male university students (23.51 ± 4.

- The study investigated how trunk rotation muscle strength affects the speed and distance of rotational medicine ball throws in college students, analyzing gender differences and muscle strength asymmetries.
- Thirty physically active college students participated, using various exercises and measurement tools to assess their trunk strength and throwing performance.
- Results indicated a strong correlation between trunk strength and throwing performance, significant sex-based differences in throwing velocity and distance, but no notable asymmetries in strength between dominant and non-dominant sides.
The main objective of this study was to test the relationship between shoulder internal rotation strength and standing throwing velocity. A repeated measures cross-sectional study was conducted with 20 professional handball players (mean ± SD; age: 19.28 ± 2.

Fortunately, these changes can be modulated by an optimal nutritional intervention. This case study represents the first nutritional intervention of a moderate altitude athlete.
