Background: Among all shoulder injuries, shoulder impingement syndrome (SIS) is more common and is the most common cause for pain and stiffness in the shoulder area. The study purpose was to investigate the effect of six weeks resistance exercises with elastic-band on joint pain and range of motion (ROM) in athlete men with shoulder impingement syndrome.

Methods: This was a semi experimental research. The statistical population was athlete 20 to 30 year’s old men with SIS, referred to a counseling and health center. ،Twenty students were selected as statistical samples and divided into two experimental (n = 10) and control (n = 10) groups. Then, one group had shoulder band workout for six weeks, and every week 3 sessions, and the control group only performed their daily activities. We used electro goniometer for measuring pre and posttest ROM and Visual Analog Scale (VAS) for pain assessment. The data was analyzed using independent samples t-test (p ≤ 0.05).

Results: In this study, a significant improvement was found in joint pain relief in the experimental group compared to pre-test and the control group. In addition, the experimental group compared with the control group showed a significant difference in ROM of the shoulder joint after six weeks of shoulder band workout in abduction, internal rotation and external rotation movements.

Conclusion: The result of this study showed that the resistance exercises with elastic-band are effective to joint pain relief and ROM improvement in athlete men SIS,
