Narrative review examines how fatigue affects proprioception in the shoulder joint, suggesting implications for injury prevention.
Recent findings suggest that most sports-related injuries occur during the latter stages of these activities, often due to fatigue, which can impair proprioception and increase the risk of injury. Proprioception can be divided into three categories: joint position sense, the sense of movement (kinesthesia), and the sense of force reproduction. While several studies have examined how exercise-induced fatigue affects various aspects of proprioception on lower limb joints, research focusing on the shoulder joint is limited. This comprehensive review of the effects of exercise-induced fatigue on shoulder proprioception aims to summarize the latest evidence and inform practitioners in the fields of fitness and rehabilitation.
