The study is focusing on persons with a spinal cord injury in the thoracic or lumbar region of the spine, that have only recently been injured and will soon be discharged from primary rehabilitation. The shoulder training will take place either 3 or 12 months after discharge from primary rehabilitation and will be carried out twice a week for 12 weeks. There are six measurements occurring every three months, which leads to an overall duration of 15 months. The measurements consist of: * Questionnaires about independence in daily life, participation, quality of life and physical activity * Assessment of shoulder strength, range of motion and function * Measurement of the dail
