After SCI, greater upper extremity strength is associated with increased levels of independence.3 Due to postural changes from prolonged use of a wheelchair and substituting the arms for mobility rather than the legs, there is a high incidence of shoulder pain and dysfunction after SCI, and strengthening the upper extremities has been shown to reduce shoulder pain in SCI.2,10 Muscles of the trunk and lower extremities with some preserved function should also be strengthened to enhance function.
