Functional Movement Screen Normative Values and Validity in High School Athletes: Can the FMS be Used as a Predictor of Injury?

Written by Kyle Barrow FMS

This article found the FMS cannot be solely used as a predictor of injury, but, indicated that shoulder mobility scores were significantly lower in high school athletes. This finding may support the regional interdependence model, in which “seemingly unrelated impairments in a remote anatomical region may contribute to, or be associated with, the patient's primary complaint".
