Judo is a high-impact sport that requires agility, balance, static and explosive strength, as well as cardiovascular fitness to be performed properly. The blows applied by athletes practicing this sport are quite complex, usually involving more than one joint and several muscle groups, making them more susceptible to musculoskeletal injuries. The high rate of injuries seen in this population prompted a descriptive experimental study, with an exploratory approach, to find out which types of injuries were most common in judo. One of the most vulnerable joints is the glenohumeral joint, which is, however, a very unstable joint, acting through the interaction of 4 joints: the glenohumeral joint, the acromioclavicular joint, the sternoclavicular joint and the scapulothoracic joint, thus allowing for an extensive range of movement which, when practicing judo, is subjected to high impacts, static forces and repetitive use, thus contributing to the appearance of injuries and pain in the region of the shoulder girdle.
