Lift Off Test (Gerber's Test) - Subscapularis Shoulder Exam

The patient places the dorsum of their hand at the mid-lumbar region and internally rotates at the shoulder to lift the hand off of the back against resistance.
The inability to lift off of the back indicates subscapularis injury.

This patient has a normal Lift-off test on the left side, and a positive (abnormal) Lift-off test on the right side
