Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
* also in rounded shoulder posture there is weakness in scapular stabilizers and retractors which affect proximal stability of the arm
* proximal stability is important for distal mobility
* so from this biomechanical point of veiw we conduct this study to see if forward head and rounded shoulder posture can affect hand grip strength in asymptomatic young adults.
