Discover how the Functional Movement Screen can help you move better, train smarter, and prevent injuries.

​

You’re training hard. But are you moving well?

​

Many people dive into exercise programs full of enthusiasm—lifting heavier, running faster, stretching further but without a solid foundation of proper movement, even the most dedicated fitness routines can lead to pain, plateaus, and injury.

​

That’s where the Functional Movement Screen (FMS) comes in.

​​​​​​

​​​​

What is the Functional Movement Screen?

​

The FMS is a simple yet powerful tool used by coaches, physiotherapists, and fitness professionals around the world. It assesses how well you move, identifying imbalances, weaknesses, and dysfunctional patterns that can increase your risk of injury.

Rather than waiting for pain to appear, FMS helps you catch problems before they become serious.

​

How Does It Work??

 

The FMS consists of seven fundamental movement tests, each designed to evaluate stability, mobility, and motor control:

​

• Deep Squat

• Hurdle Step

• In-Line Lunge

• Shoulder Mobility

• Active Straight-Leg Raise

• Trunk Stability Push-Up

• Rotary Stability

 

Each movement is scored on a simple scale, giving you and your coach a clear picture of where you’re strong—and where you need work.

Why It Matters?

​

- Prevent Injuries
Fixing poor movement patterns reduces your risk of common issues like back pain, knee injuries, and shoulder strains.

- Improve Performance
Good movement means better strength, speed, and endurance. You’ll train more efficiently and effectively.

- Personalize Your Training
Use your FMS results to create a workout plan tailored to your body’s actual needs.
