Video Summary

Dexter Vu, a physical therapist at Los Gatos Orthopaedic Sports Therapy, demonstrates exercises for the rotator cuff. The side-lying external rotation involves lying on one's side, progressing from no weight to a light dumbbell. The prone external rotation targets scapular stabilizers and can also progress with weights. For return to sport testing, he explains the inverted row and seated shot put tests. The inverted row involves lifting the body under a bar for 15 seconds, repeated three times. The seated shot put test uses a six-pound medicine ball thrown from a seated position, conducted in three trials per arm to assess performance.
