Effect of Sleeper Stretch with Muscle Energy Technique on Posterior Shoulder Tightness Among College Level Cricket Bowlers

Introduction: Posterior shoulder tightness is the extensibility limitations of soft tissue, due to repetitive tensile loading in overhead athletes such as cricket and other sports. Bowling main cause for tightness. Hence Sleeper stretch with muscle energy technique proposed be effecting improving range, flexibility functional ability. Purpose: To examine effectiveness Muscle on posterior among college level bowlers. Materials Methods: The study design was a single group experimental design. On inclusion criteria one hundred thirty subjects were selected through convenient sampling technique. given sleeper combined 8 consecutive weeks 5 times week, post-test assessment taken data analysis done respectively. Results: result post intervention internal rotation (72.29° ± 3.73°, P = 0.001<0.05), Horizontal adduction (38.51° 2.70°. capsule (109.81° 2.65° DASH score ability (4.43 1.53). Through Pearson chi square test there significant association (χ2 61.38, 0.001<0.005), 16.11, 0.001<0.05) no 0.98, 0.806>0.05) Score 4.25, 0.120>0.05). Conclusion: Effect MET PST showed effective results horizontal adduction, flexibility,
