The Functional Movement Screen (FMS) is a screening tool used to identify limitations or asymmetries in various movement patterns. It measures a variety of different patterns that are important to movement quality and optimization in individuals with no current pain nor known musculoskeletal injury. The FMS can be helpful for athletes, runners, weight-lifters, or anyone that is recreationally active and wants to learn more about their movement capacity. The FMS is not a diagnostic tool, rather, it is a screening tool to identify movement or mobility insufficiencies. I like to think of the FMS as a discovery tool that may expose pain or sub-optimal movement patterns.  

The FMS consists of seven movement patterns that require varying degrees of mobility and stability. The following movement patterns are scored from 0 - 3, with the total score ranging from 0 to 21. 

  1. Deep Squat

  2. Hurdle Step

  3. In-line Lunge

  4. Shoulder Mobility

  5. Active Straight-leg Raise

  6. Trunk Stability Push-up

  7. Rotary Stability

The FMS is performed without a warm-up to assess your movement capacity in a natural state. The score you attain reflects your movement baseline, which can then be used to make an actionable program to address your mobility and stability needs.
