Abstract
Joint replacement is a viable intervention option for individuals with various arthritic shoulder pathologies that have been refractory to conservative treatment measures. Considering the complications and risks associated with total shoulder arthroplasty, individuals will have persistent impairments that the strength and conditioning professional may encounter, making it essential for them to be familiar with the surgical procedure, rehabilitation process, precautions, and residual impairments. This manuscript lays the foundation for which strength and conditioning professions can implement a safe and effective post-rehabilitation program to maximize outcomes while minimizing risk.
