Q

what do you do for the scapular adduction test if the posterior delt is weak?

A

Have the patient hold the scapula in adduction as the therapist slowly releases the shoulder support. Observe whether the scapula maintains its adducted position. If it does, it is Grade 3. Would then also need to apply resistance closer to the shoulder.
