The article estimates that 70-80% of people in tennis, baseball, or pitching-like activities may have an inhibited or non-locking infraspinatus. Throwing and overhand motions heavily involve the infraspinatus. The external rotators help slow the arm after a ball is released. Repeated throwing motions can create microtrauma over time. Repeated throwing stress may contribute to trigger points and altered muscle-brain feedback.
