OBJECTIVES: To compare the change in supraspinatus tendon thickness (STT) following a high volume (HV) and high intensity (HI) swimming practice in shoulders of elite swimmers. DESIGN: Cohort Study. SETTING: Non-clinical, state swim team training facility. PARTICIPANTS: A convenience sample of eight non-injured state and national level swimmers from a regional swim team were recruited for this study. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Ultrasound measures of STT were collected in response to the two swimming practice sessions. Measures were taken prior to each swim practice; immediately after practice; 6-hours post practice and 24-hours post practice. RESULTS: A significant increase in STT resulted from both the HI and HV (p < 0.05) practice immediately post practice. For the HI practice, the STT remained significantly thicker than pre-practice measures at the 6-hour post practice test (p < 0.05) however no longer significant 24-hours post practice. The difference in the change in STT between the HI and HV practice was significantly different immediately post practice and 6-hours post practice (p < 0.05) however no longer significant 24-hour post practice. CONCLUSION: Ultrasound measures of STT following different swimming volumes and intensities may provide information on shoulder tendon loads.
