Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to understand acute tendon changes after two exercise programs. We will invite individuals with and without shoulder pain to participate in this study. Every individual will participate in both exercise programs separated by up to 15 days. The researcher will evaluate the shoulder tendon using ultrasound before each exercise program and at 1 hour, 6 hours and 24 hours after each exercise program. The researcher will also evaluate self reported pain, pain sensitivity testing, and self reported questionnaires. We will compare the tendon changes after each exercise program, as well as between participants with and without shoulder pain.
