Question 5

goal of FMS

Answer 5

-to create a screening process that would allow anyone dealing with active individuals (i.e., fitness professionals, exercise physiologists, physical therapist, etc.) to easily set a baseline of movement ability + to decide whether an individual had deficient movement

-also potentially identify if someone is at risk for injury

Answer 6

-mobility
-stability
-dynamic movement

Question 7

Answer 9

-deep squat
-hurdle step

-shoulder mobility
-ASLR
-trunk stability push up
-rotary stability

Question 10

what is order of FMS based on

Answer 10

standing up to on ground

Question 11

what type of movement- shoulder mobility

Answer 11

shoulder mobility

Question 12

what type of movement- ASLR

Answer 12

hip mobility

Question 13

what type of movement- rotary stability

Answer 13

soft-core stability

Question 14

what type of movement- pushup

Answer 14

outer-core stability

Question 15

Question 18

minimum passing possible score on FMS

Answer 18

14
-scoring 2’s

Question 19

lowest + highest score on a movement of FMS

Answer 19

lowest = 0
highest = 3

Question 20

FMS score of 0

Answer 20

-there is pain in the movement
-the test is stopped
-the client is referred to a clinician

Question 21

FMS score of 1

Answer 21

the movement pattern is deficient + below required minimums

Question 22

FMS score of 2

Answer 22

the movement pattern is sufficient enough to load + train that pattern

Question 23

FMS score of 3

Answer 23

the movement pattern is near perfect

Question 24

how do we calculate score for bilateral tests (hurdle step, inline lunge, rotary mobility, shoulder mobility, ASLR)

Answer 24

lowest score counts

Question 25

best possible composite score on FMS

Answer 25

21

-scoring a 21 does not mean the subject is a fantastic athlete, or that they are never going to get injured; a 21 simply means they have more than sufficient movement patterns
-a 19 could be potentially as bad for an individual as a 14
-each individual movement must be analyzed

Question 26

is the order of FMS required

Answer 26

no, recommended
-clients can start + end with any order of movements + it won’t negatively affect the scoring results

Question 27

SEE FMS SCORING + INSTRUCTIONS FLASHCARDS FROM GORDON’S LECTURES

Answer 29

-effective

Question 30

correcting a ____in the FMS may result in improvements in the ____
