A set of four smaller muscles in the shoulder responsible for rotating the humerus (upper arm bone)

In my quest for world records, I ruined both my rotator cuffs. The cuff, a group of four relatively small (but important) shoulder muscles which control inward and outward rotation of the humerus, is particularly vulnerable to the kind of trauma gymnastics, weighlifting and powerlifting inflict.

– muscles and their insertional tendons that form a cuff over the shoulder joint, on their way to attaching from the scapula to the humorous; major function is to control, and produce, rotation of the shoulder
The group of tendons and muscles that attach the bone of the upper arm to the shoulder blade and provide support and mobility to the ball-and-socket joint of the shoulder
– muscles and their insertional tendons that form a cuff over the shoulder joint, on their way to attaching from the scapula to the humorus; major function is to control, and produce, rotation of the shoulder
Comprised of four muscles in the shoulder area that can be irritated by over use The muscles are the supraspinatus(most commonly injured), infraspinatus, teres minor, and subscapularis
The "cuff" formed by four muscles and their tendons, acting to stabilize and reinforce the humeral head in the shoulder joint during movement
a supporting structure of the shoulder consisting of the muscles and tendons that attach the arm to the shoulder joint and enable the arm to move
four intrinsic muscles of the shoulder responsible for arm rotation and keeping the humerus in the glenoid fossa S
A supporting structure that is made up of the capsule of the shoulder joint, mixed with tendons and muscles
A tendon formed by three distinct muscles which stabilise the head of the humerus within the shoulder joint Tendonitis or injury to the rotator cuff muscle can make lifting the arm out to the side and external rotation painful In most cases treatment includes rest, ice, and physical therapy to strengthen the shoulder muscles Hard, extended J-stroke paddling can injure the rotator cuff Been there; done that Don't forget to switch sides and take breaks
A supporting structure that is made up of the capsule of the shoulder joint, mised with tendons and muscles
Comprised of four muscles in the shoulder area that can be irritated by overuse The muscles are the supraspinatus (most commonly injured), infra-spinatus, teres minor, and subscapularis
muscles and tendons that form a cuff over the shoulder joint and attach to the scapula to the bone in the upper arm (humerus); major function is to control and produce rotation of the shoulder
A set of muscles and tendons that secures the arm to the shoulder joint and permits rotation of the arm
consists of muscles and tendons that hold the shoulder in place
A structure around the shoulder-joint capsule composed of intermingled muscle and tendon fibers The rotator cuff provides stability and strength to the shoulder joint
Comprised of four muscles in the shoulder area that can be irratated by overuse The muscles are the supraspinatus (most commonly injured), infraspinatus, teres minor and subscapularis
