If SS is ultimately an impingement problem related to overuse, and there are ways to decrease the probability of that impingement occurring, then it logically follows that SS could be made less probable to occur (Bak & Fauno, 1997; Baum, 1994; Johnson, Gauvin, & Fredericson, 2003; mayo Clinic, 2000; Newton, Jones, Kraemer, & Wardle, 2002; Pink & Jobe, 1996; Pollard & Croker, 1999; Reuter & Wright, 1996; Tuffey, 2000; Weisenthal, 2001). If certain methods are employed in a swimmer's training program, it might be possible to make recovery from SS episodes easier or quicker (Bak & Fauno, 1997; Baum, 1994; Johnson, Gauvin, & Fredericson, 2003; mayo Clinic, 2000; Newton, Jones, Kraemer, & Wardle, 2002; Pink & Jobe, 1996; Pollard & Croker, 1999; Reuter & Wright, 1996; Tuffey, 2000; Weisenthal, 2001). These prevention methods can be divided into (Bak, 1997; Bak & Fauno, 1997; Baum, 1994; Johnson, Gauvin, & Fredericson, 2003; Koehler & Thorson, 1996; Maglischo, 2003; mayo Clinic, 2000; Newton, Jones, Kraemer, & Wardle, 2002; Pink & Jobe, 1996; Pollard & Croker, 1999; Reuter & Wright, 1996; Tuffey, 2000; Weisenthal, 2000): - technique modifications
- training program design
- flexibility development
- strength development
