Scapular Abduction and Upward Rotation MMT

This video demonstrates the manual muscle test for scapular abduction and upward rotation to evaluate the serratus anterior muscle.

Note: Body mechanics may be slightly altered due to filming angle. Always make sure to practice proper body mechanics.

if we want to strenghten serratus anterior in upward rotation action should shoulder flexion happen with protraction?

[jessicag]

where would the resistance and stabilization be if this were to be performed in supine? Would it be the same

[kunwarpartapsingh]

can the MMT of scapula be performed in prone position for grades less then 3. Like 2 or 1 ???
