👉🏻 This is from the new paper "Muscle hypertrophy from partial repetition at long vs. short muscle length: A systematic review and meta-analysis" by Strey et al 2026

💡 Strength gains following strengthening exercises in rotator cuff-related shoulder pain are small and of limited clinical relevance. In contrast, increased supraspinatus muscle stiffness assessed by shear wave elastography was observed after the exercise intervention and may reflect exercise-related adaptations; however, its biological meaning should be interpreted with caution.

👉🏻 This is from the new paper "Mechanism of Action of Therapeutic Exercise in Rotator Cuff Tendinopathy: What Does Elastography Add?" by Pérez-Porta et al 2026
