Many researchers have questioned whether shoulder kinematics such as the glenohumeral position and scapular kinematics would be different in different age groups. However, studies comparing shoulder kinematics between different age groups have been rare. The aim of this study was to analyze and compare the three-dimensional (3D) glenohumeral position, scapular kinematics, and scapulohumeral rhythm (SHR) during scapular plane arm abduction between a normal young male group and a normal older male group.
