Effects of Body Weight and Stretching on Neck, Shoulder and Back Pain Among Personnel in Surindra Rajabhat University
Main Article Content
Abstract
Neck, Shoulder and Back pain can happen to anyone. This is mostly the result of sitting, standing or working stay in that position for a long time causing the muscles to contract resulting in pain and limit movement. Considerable evidence shows that body weight training and stretching training could reduce on neck, shoulder and back pain but the weight training also could increase the strength of muscles. This will have a positive effect on personnel to have good health in the further development of the university.
