**EXAM1- FMS Flashcards
FMS
functional movement screen
goal of FMS
to create a screening process that would allow anyone dealing with active individuals to easily set a baseline of movement ability + to decide whether an individual had deficient movement + potentially identify if someone is at risk for injury
-uses extreme positions where weaknesses + imbalances in mobility, stability, + movement become noticeable
can we evaluate someone that is injured
no
-because our body changes movement patterns based off of pain
-they must consult physician
7 movement patterns of FMS
-shoulder mobility
-ASLR
-rotary stability
-pushup
-inline lunge
-hurdle step
-overhead squat
2 mobility movements
-shoulder mobility
-ASLR
2 stability movements
-rotary stability
-pushup
3 dynamic movements
-inline lunge
-hurdle step
-overhead squat
shoulder mobility tests
shoulder mobility
ASLR tests
hip mobility
rotary stability tests
soft core stability
pushup tests
outer core stability
FMS scoring- 0
-there is pain
-test is stopped
-client is referred to a clinician
FMS scoring- 1
movement pattern is deficient + below required minimums
FMS scoring- 2
the movement pattern is sufficient enough to load + train that pattern
FMS scoring- 3
the movement pattern is near perfect
on bilateral tests how do we score
we keep the lowest score
best composite score on FMS
21
does scoring a 21 mean the subject is a fantastic athlete or they will never get injured
no
-simply means they have more than sufficient movement patterns
-a 19 could be potentially as bad for an individual as a 14
deep squat
incorporates fully coordinated extremity mobility in the upper + lower body while also demonstrating core stability
what is the most complicated movement in the screen
deep squat
hurdle step
requires extreme lower body mobility + core stability
-gait shifting with exaggerated core stability
inline lunge
restricted lunge, requires static upper body, extreme lower body mobility + stabilization of core
-rotation, deceleration, + lateral movements
shoulder mobility
demonstrates natural complementary rhythm of scapular-thoracic region, thoracic spine, + rib cage during reciprocal upper extremity shoulder movements
ASLR
identifies active mobility of the flexed hip + include initial + continuous core stability within the pattern
-as well as the available hip extension of the alternate hip
trunk stability push up
observation of the reflex core stabilization + is not a test or measure of upper body strength
goal of trunk stability push up
to initiate movement with the upper extremities in a push up position without allowing movement of the spine or hips
rotary stability
observes multi-plane pelvis, core + shoulder girdle stability during a combined upper + lower extremity movement
