Comparison of shoulder external rotator strength and the asymmetry ratio between workers with and without shoulder impingement syndrome. J Strength Cond Res 35(12): 3364-3369, 2021-Shoulder impingement syndrome (SIS) is the most common shoulder problem causing shoulder pain. Several studies have indicated that shoulder external rotator muscles provide dynamic stability to the shoulder joint. However, the relationship of SIS to changes in shoulder external rotator muscle strength remains controversial. The purpose of the study was to compare the shoulder external rotator strength and asymmetry ratio between workers with SIS and the normal group in a side-lying position. Twelve male industrial workers with SIS and the normal group of 12 workers participated in this study. A pulling sensor measured shoulder external rotator muscle strength in a side-lying position with the shoulder at 0° and 90° of flexion. The asymmetry ratio was calculated by a specific formula using the shoulder external rotator muscle strength of the dominant side and the unaffected side. Two-way analysis of variance was used to determine between-group differences in shoulder external rotator muscle strength and the asymmetry ratio among the 2 positions. Subjects with SIS did not exhibit significant differences in shoulder external rotator muscle strength in the side-lying position with the shoulder at 0° and 90° of flexion relative to the normal group. However, subjects with SIS had a significantly increased asymmetry ratio of shoulder external rotation strength in the side-lying position with the shoulder at 90° of flexion compared with the normal group. In conclusion, workers with SIS had an asymmetry of shoulder external rotator strength in side-lying with the shoulder at 90° of flexion.
