Reliability of isokinetic assessment of shoulder-rotator strength: a systematic review of the effect of position. CryoCuff) PRN(as needed). Strengthening the scapular muscles is essential for improving and maintaining scapulohumeral rhythm -- the coordinated movements between the humerus bone of your upper arm and the scapula bone, which includes the shoulder socket in which the head of the humerus fits. Repeat testing demonstrated a high reliability of isokinetic measurements and of isometric measurements at angles within the range of the production of peak torque.
