This consistent irritation in the shoulder limits swimmers&#8217; training in and out of the water. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">If a swimmer takes 12 strokes to complete 25 yards, and their workout is 3500 yards long, that means that the athlete will rotate their shoulder about 1680 times! If that swimmer swims six times per week, that would mean he or she would be performing on average, 10,080 strokes per week. If a swimmer does end up with pain in their shoulder, it is best that they go see a physiotherapist nearby. Gaining an early and correct diagnosis is very important in order to get the best treatment and get the swimmer back in the pool as soon as possible. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Here are three ways to prevent yourself from experiencing the infamous Swimmer\u2019s Shoulder\u2026<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">1.

Japanese National Team Coach, <strong>Yoshihiro Fujimori<\/strong>, says that one of the easiest ways to not only get power from your swim but to avoid shoulder injury is to keep your shoulders loose and un-shrugged at all times throughout the stroke. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Shrugging your shoulders during the pulling process gives unneeded tension to the small but important muscles in your shoulders. Insufficient body roll in freestyle could cause excessive pulling on the tendons. A lot of swimmer\u2019s thumb and pointer fingers enter the water first, but that results in an excessive internal rotation, which leads to shoulder impingement. Another factor which needs to be taken into account is how you are pulling through the water. If you tend to cross over the midline of your body or pull water with a straight arm or with a dropped elbow, those are all factors that could potentially lead to excess pressure on your inner rotator cuffs. <\/span><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">2.

Proper recovery in any sport is as important as the actual workout itself. <strong>Joshua Brown<\/strong>, who will be swimming for Princeton University starting this fall, believes getting a good night&#8217;s sleep and stretching is the best way to recover from practice. Stretching will help relieve muscular tension. In addition, flexibility is a necessity in swimming if you want to be faster. Not all competitive swimmers get the luxury of getting a nap between morning and afternoon workouts. Things that could compensate for that is to work on excellent pre-workout nutrition, post-workout protein, and eating potassium-rich foods daily. <\/span><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">3.

What helps you move and flex those bigger muscles are the inner rotator cuffs. When working on the inner rotator cuffs, it is very important to be cautious since it is a delicate muscle. External rotation of your shoulder using a light elastic band and external rotation at 90-degree abduction are very useful preventative exercises which strengthen the tendons inside your shoulder.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><b>Technique\/Training:<\/b> <em>All swimming and dryland training and instruction should be performed under the supervision of a qualified coach or instructor, and in circumstances that ensure the safety of participants.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>3 Ways to Help Prevent Swimmer&#8217;s Shoulder By Shunichi Fujishima, Swimming World College Intern.
