Abstract
Objective: To evaluate the efficacy of well-prescribed resistance training in pain management and quality of life in patients with subacromial pain syndrome.
Methodology: This randomized control trial included 150 patients who were randomly allocated into the experimental group (EG) and control group (CG). The control group had home-based exercise program 1) Multiangle isometric and progressive dynamic resistance exercises and heat therapy. The experimental group received supervised exercise sessions at the start and then at the end of 3rd month for a change in an exercise program from isometric to dynamic resistance exercise up to 6-months. The control group was not assigned with any planned exercise therapy regimen. Outcomes were measured as pain by using visual analog scale and quality of life by modified SF-36 scale and shoulder movements by constant Murley score.
Results: Pain improved (6.81±1.67 to 2.90±1.36) measured on a visual analogue scale. Constant shoulder score increased from 57% to 89%. Quality of life had significant improvement (p<0.05) in experiment group as compared to control group.
Conclusion: Multiangle isometric exercise and dynamic progressive resistance training reduced subacromial pain and improved quality of life.

Key words: Subacromial pain syndrome, isometric exercises, dynamic resistance exercises, pain, quality of Life.
