Belly Press Test | Rationale & Interpretation

The video tutorial explains the belly press test, a diagnostic tool for detecting subscapularis tears. It highlights the test's poor sensitivity but high specificity, indicating a strong likelihood of a tear if the test is positive. The tutorial provides step-by-step instructions for performing the test, emphasizing the importance of maintaining a neutral wrist position to ensure valid results. Compensations, such as wrist flexion, can invalidate the test, as the movement should occur primarily at the shoulder joint.
