Background: The functional movement screen (FMS) is a movement screening tool designed to assess mobility,stability, symmetry, and quality of movement patterns. It is an inexpensive and accessible screening tool. It is not known if composite FMS scores correlate with athletic performance. Objective: To systematically review relevant literature to discover if composite FMS scores correlate with athletic performance. Methods: A systematic review of literature indexed in the following databases: Medline, CINAHL, SportsDiscus, and PubMed was conducted. The risk of bias was assessed using the QUADAS-2 assessment tool. Results: Six studies satisfied the eligibility criteria and were included in this review. The studies population age range was twenty to twenty-four years old. Risk of bias per the QUADAS-2 tool determined that five out of six studies (83%) were deemed relatively low risk of bias for the risk of bias indicators, and one study (17%) was of unclear risk due to lack of reporting. For the applicability concerns aspect of the QUADAS-2 tool, all studies (100%) scored relatively low risk of bias for most indicators. Composite FMS scores generally did not correlate with athletic performance. Certain individual components of the FMS, such as deep squat (DS), did correlate with certain athletic performance measures. Conclusions: The results of this review suggest that the FMS is not a predictive indicator of athletic performance. The DS and in-line lunge components of the FMS might be an indicator of athletic performance for certain athletic performance measures.

Context: Poor functional movement patterns negatively affect the ability to perform fundamental movements with precision and efficiency, increasing injury risk in athletes. Objectives: To examine the effect of a 20-week corrective exercise program during the competitive season on functional movement patterns in youth elite male soccer players. Design: Cohort study. Setting: Team facilities. Participants: Sixty-five youth elite male soccer players (age: 15.89 [0.53] y; weight: 67.42 [6.78] kg; and stature: 175.20 [6.34] cm). Of the 4 teams, 2 were randomly selected to take part in the corrective program. Thus, the players were placed into 2 groups: corrective exercise program and control group. Intervention: Corrective exercise program. Main Outcome Measures: Functional Movement Screen (FMS) was used to assess the presence of dysfunctional, asymmetrical, and painful movements in the players before and after the intervention period. In addition to considering the FMS total score (FMStotal), we separated the screen into 3 parts: FMSmove, FMSflex, and FMSstab. A repeated-measures analysis of variance was conducted to determine the effectiveness of the training program on FMS scores. The chi-square test was performed to determine whether there were significant changes in the frequencies of asymmetric and dysfunctional movements after 20 weeks. Results: No athlete experienced severe injuries during the intervention period. There was a significant group by time interaction (P <.01) for FMStotal, FMSmove, and FMSstab, in which only the corrective exercise program increased their scores after the intervention period (P <.05). A chi-square analysis showed a significant (P <.05) decrease in asymmetric and dysfunctional movements at the follow-up in corrective exercise program, whereas these changes were not observed in the control group. Conclusions: Youth elite soccer players demonstrate a high prevalence of asymmetric movements during FMS testing, but their functional movement patterns can be improved during the competitive season following a specific corrective exercise program.

Hanes, CE, Schilling, BK, Mulvenon, SW, and Radzak, KN. Effects of fatigue on functional movement efficiency in physically active adults. J Strength Cond Res 36(9): 2448-2453, 2022-Functional movement tests to identify faulty movement patterns and compensations have become common place in sports medicine and sport performance; however, this testing is often performed in a rested state, despite athletes being often injured when in a state of neuromuscular fatigue. Therefore, the purpose of our study was to examine the effects of neuromuscular fatigue on a functional movement test in health, physically active adults. Twenty-five adults volunteered for the study (age = 23.3 +/- 2.7 years, height = 168.2 +/- 9.0 cm, body mass = 72.2 +/- 12.5 kg). Subjects completed a prefatigue movement test, an aerobic exercise physically fatiguing protocol, and a postfatigue movement test. Scores were calculated according to compensations present during the tests. Prefatigue (45.1 +/- 5.4) to postfatigue (39.9 +/- 5.7) overall scores were significantly worse after the fatiguing protocol (p < 0.001, effect size [ES] = 0.9). Prefatigue to postfatigue scores for the 1-Leg Squat, Shoulder, and Cervical subtests were also significantly decreased (p = 0.005, ES = 0.7; p = 0.002, ES = 0.5; p = 0.016, ES = 0.7, respectively). Neuromuscular fatigue affected the functional movement test, demonstrated by a decrease in movement scores, in healthy adults. Clinicians may use the functional movement test to identify potential compensations while their patients are physically fatigued. Then clinicians can implement an injury prevention program to reduce the possible risk of injury.

Introduction The aim of the study was to evaluate the effects of a progressive stretching exercise programme on the functional limitations in physically active women. Material and Methods Thirty-six women took part in the study. All of them attended fitness classes (step, fat burning) at least twice a week. The study included women aged 19-26 who were randomly divided into two groups. Group 1 consisted of women who performed a set of progressive stretching exercises twice a week for a period of two months after training sessions. Group 2 (the control group) included women who neither performed any exercises nor received any treatment after training sessions. On the first day of the study, each woman was subjected to the Functional Movement Screen (FMS), the Core Muscle Strength and Stability Test (CMS---amp---ST) and the Sit and Reach test (to the right and left side) before starting their fitness class. Afterwards, group 1 performed progressive stretching exercises as instructed, i.e. twice a week for approximately 20 minutes after classes, for a period of ten weeks. After ten weeks, all women performed FMS, CMS---amp---ST and Sit and Reach tests again.

Background: Previous research suggests that a general whole-body movement screen could be used to identify personal movement attributes that promote potentially injurious low-back loading patterns at work. The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between Functional Movement Screen (FMS) composite scores and the low-back loading response to lifting. Methods: Fifteen men who scored greater than 14 on the FMS (high-scorers) and 15 height- and weight-matched low-scorers (FMS < 14) performed sagittally symmetric and asymmetric laboratory-based lifting tasks. A three-dimensional dynamic biomechanical model was used to calculate peak low-back loading levels, and the angle of the lumbar spine was captured at the instant when the peak compressive force was applied. Results: Regardless of the lifting task performed, there were no differences in peak low-back compression (p ≥ 0.4157), anterior/posterior reaction shear (p ≥ 0.5645), or medial/lateral reaction shear (p ≥ 0.2581) forces between the high- and low-scorers. At the instant when peak compressive forces were applied, differences in the lumbar spine angle between high- and low-scores were not statistically significant about the lateral bend (p ≥ 0.4215), axial twist (p ≥ 0.2734), or flexion/extension (p ≥ 0.1354) axes, but there was a tendency for the lumbar spine to be more deviated in the low-scorers. Conclusions: Using the previously established injury prediction threshold value of 14, the composite FMS score was not related to the peak low-back loading magnitudes in lifting. Though not statistically significant, the tendency for the lumbar spines of low-scorers to be more deviated when the peak low-back compression force was imposed could be biomechanically meaningful because spinal load tolerance varies with posture. Future attempts to modify or reinterpret FMS scoring are warranted given that several previous studies have revealed links between composite FMS scores and musculoskeletal complaints.

The aim of this study was to establish specific profiles for anthropometry and functional movement parameters and identify which characteristics can be modified by training to achieve a better quality of movement in elite male volleyball players competing at the Italian National League (Super Lega = 39, aged 25.6 +/- 4.7 years and A2 = 30, aged 26.2 +/- 5.3 years). Another aim was to value functional movement patterns in relation to morphological traits, with special focus on differences by division and playing positions. Statistical significance was set at p <= 0.05. According to discriminant analysis, the differences between players of the 2 Divisions were primarily due to nonmodifiable parameters (humerus width, height, and bicrestiliac width) and modifiable parameters (contracted arm circumference and muscle area of upper arm). Our results highlighted differences according to playing positions. Middle hitters and opposites were taller, heavier and generally showed wide dimensions in contracted arm circumference, upper limb length widths, and handgrip strength than the players of the other roles. Percentage of fat mass was low in players of all roles, such as endomorph somatotype component. Ectomorphic component was maximal in middle hitters, whereas mesomorphic component was maximal in liberos. The players of the 2 Divisions did not show differences in the movement patterns, even if approximately 33% of them showed a dysfunctional movement, with a prevalence of asymmetric movements in the shoulder mobility test. Multiple regression showed that, in volleyball players, an optimal flexibility and mobility was closely related to anthropometric characters with particular emphasis on body fat.

Context: Movement screens are a common method of assessing movement efficiency either against a specific criterion of segments/joint(s) motion (segmental method) or a summary label of general quality of the whole movement (overall method). While not as commonly utilized within clinical practice as the segmental method, the overall method is less time consuming to perform and more reliable. Objectives: The aim of this study was to assess the reliability of the "overall" method approach during a squat in individuals with a previous knee joint injury. Design: Cross-sectional, clinical measurement. Participants: Twodimensional video recordings of 5 squat trials were recorded for 16 participants with a history of a major knee joint injury(s) and were visually rated by 3 novice and 3 expert raters. Main OutcomeMeasures: Weighted quadratic Kappa was used to determine the intra-and inter-rater reliability of the squat movement competency screen. Results: Good inter-rater reliability for the expert and novice groups was observed. Intra-rater reliability was very good between analysis sessions for 1 expert rater. Conclusions: The overall method is a reliable method that enables allied health professionals of different levels of clinical experience to utilize a framework to assess movement quality during a squat in patients with a previous knee joint injury.
