The Functional Movement Screen (FMS) does not predict changes in static balance after exercise. Specific FMS tests may help identify general injury risk, but not deficits in balance post-activity.

Area of Science:

  • Sports Medicine
  • Biomechanics
  • Exercise Physiology

Background:

  • The Functional Movement Screen (FMS) is utilized for injury risk prediction.
  • Limited research exists on FMS relationships with specific injury risk factors like static balance changes post-exercise.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To compare resting Functional Movement Screen (FMS) scores with changes in static balance after exercise.
  • To evaluate FMS scores before and after an exercise protocol.
  • To investigate the relationship between FMS performance and post-exercise balance deficits.

Main Methods:

  • Twenty-five participants underwent Center of Pressure (COP) measures for static balance and FMS testing.
  • COP data (COPML-SD, COPAP-SD, COP-Velocity, COP-Area) and FMS scores were recorded.

Computerized Dynamic Posturography for Postural Control Assessment in Patients with Intermittent Claudication

  • FMS testing and COP measures were conducted pre- and post- a 36-minute exercise protocol.

    • Main Results:

    • No significant correlations were found between pre-exercise FMS scores and overall changes in COP measures after exercise.
    • Pre-exercise hurdle step, in-line lunge, and active straight leg raise (ASLR) scores showed correlations with specific pre- or post-exercise COP measures.
    • FMS scores did not significantly differ before and after the exercise protocol.

    Conclusions:

    • Functional Movement Screen (FMS) scores are not related to exercise-induced changes in static balance.
    • The FMS may not be effective for predicting individuals who will experience greater static balance deficits post-exercise.
    • Specific FMS components (hurdle step, in-line lunge, ASLR) may offer insights for general injury risk assessment, but alternative tools may be needed for assessing post-exercise balance changes.
