Hawkins–Kennedy test: a positive test indicates shoulder impingement syndrome; Empty beer can test: a positive test indicates rotator cuff tear, specifically, supraspinatus muscle tear; Drop arm test: a positive test indicates a supraspinatus tear; External Rotation test: a positive test indicates an infraspinatus or teres minor tear
It identifies the presence of a pathology involving the biceps tendon or glenoid labrum. The specific positive findings to the test include pain in the bicipital groove indicating biceps tendinitis , [ 2 ] [ 3 ] subluxation of the long head of the biceps brachii muscle , [ 3 ] and presence of a SLAP tear .
Biceps reflex is a deep tendon reflex (DTR) test (also known as a muscle-stretch reflex test) [1] that examines the function of the C5 reflex arc and the C6 reflex arc. [2] The test is performed by using a tendon hammer to quickly depress the biceps brachii tendon [ 3 ] as it passes through the cubital fossa .
Test can indicate both neurological damage and nerve regeneration; often combined with the Babinski reflex test. Jaw jerk reflex Knee jerk or patellar reflex — a kick caused by striking the patellar tendon with a tendon hammer just below the patella, stimulating the L4 and L3 reflex arcs.
The patellar reflex (knee jerk) is an example of the stretch reflex and it is used to determine the sensitivity of the stretch reflex. Reflexes can be tested as part of a neurological examination, often if there is an injury to the central nervous system. To test the reflex, the muscle should be in a neutral position.
If I wasn't testing this hardcore, ... And that happened again on back/biceps day, when I ditched bent-over barbell rows for bench-supported rows. ... Maybe I’d get some low-load reps in, which ...
Biceps muscle. The rotator cuff (SITS muscles) is a group of muscles and their tendons that act to stabilize the human shoulder and allow for its extensive range of motion. Of the seven scapulohumeral muscles, four make up the rotator cuff. The four muscles are: supraspinatus muscle; infraspinatus muscle; teres minor muscle; subscapularis muscle.
A computerized system that calls balls and strikes is being tested during Major League Baseball spring training exhibition games starting Thursday after four years of experiments in the minor leagues.
