Objective
[edit | edit source]
The Functional Movement Screen (FMS) is a tool used to identify asymmetries which result in functional movement deficiencies. The FMS aims to identify imbalances in mobility and stability during 7 fundamental movement patterns. Once these deficiencies have been identified through the FMS screen, a program of corrective exercises is then developed with the goal of preventing musculoskeletal injuries. The FMS consists of 7 movement patterns which require mobility and stability: Deep squat, hurdle step, in-line lunge, active straight-leg raise, trunk stability push-up, and shoulder mobility. The 7 movement patterns are scored from 0-3 points, with the sum creating a score ranging from 0-21 points.[edit | edit source]
