Gray Cook responds to the following question: “During the workshop, you mentioned that the foot during the squat test (in the Functional Movement Screen) will very often externally rotate as someone descends into the squat if they have imperfection in the pattern (which is one of the common compensations seen). You mentioned during the lecture that the feet externally rotating and the knees collapsing inward into valgus were the same issue.”

“The Functional Movement Screen is paramount in working with all levels of athletes as well as fitness enthusiasts. As part of the rehab team at Fitness Quest 10, the trainers, massage therapists, chiropractors and physical therapists must work as a unit
to provide individualized care for all of our clients. The FMS is a constant among many variables in the training and sports medicine field. Our patients/clients are given an objective tool to discover their imbalances and gage progress with corrective exercise
and proper programming. I highly recommend using the FMS to bring awareness of movement to the start of any exercise program, not only for the benefit of the client but also as a team approach for any rehab and training specialists working with an active population.”Jennifer Reiner - D.C., C.S.C.S.
