The aim of this study is to examine the effect of 8-week corrective exercises applied to 12-15 age group basketball players on Functional Movement Screen Test (FMS) and motor skill (MS) score. 65 volunteer children between the ages of 12-15 participated in the study. The children were the control group (CG) (N = 25) who did not do any exercise, the basketball group that only trained basketball (BG) (N = 20), and the corrective exercise group (CEG) (N = 20) that did corrective exercises in addition to basketball training. It is divided into 3 groups. Basketball training was applied to children on BG 3 days a week. In addition to basketball training, an 8-week corrective exercise protocol was applied to the children in CEG. Functional movement patterns of children were determined with FMS test and MSs with Deutscher Motor Test (DMT). Kruskal-Wallis H Test was used to determine the differences children's pre-tests and post-tests after corrective exercises. As a result of the statistical analysis, a statistically significant difference was found between the pre-test and post-tests of FMS total scores and DMT scores in CEG (p<0.05). As a result, it has been shown that corrective exercises contribute to FMS total scores and the MS development of children. It is thought that the placement of corrective exercises in the training contents can increase the MSs of children. ​Extended English summary is in the end of Full Text PDF (TURKISH) file. Özet   Bu çalışmasının amacı, 12-15 yaş grubu basketbolculara uygulanan 8 haftalık düzeltici egzersizlerin fonksiyonel hareket tarama testi (FHT) ve motor beceri (MB) puanı üzerine etkisinin incelenmesidir. Çalışmaya 12-15 yaş arası 65 gönüllü çocuk katılmıştır. Çocuklar herhangi bir egzersiz yapmayan kontrol grubu (KG) (N=25), sadece basketbol antrenmanı yapan basketbol grubu (BG) (N=20) ve basketbol antrenmanına ilaveten düzeltici egzersiz yapan düzeltici egzersiz grubu (DEG) (N=20) olmak üzere 3 gruba ayrılmıştır. BG’da bulunan çocuklara haftada 3 gün sadece basketbol antrenmanı, DEG’da bulunan çocuklara basketbol antrenmanlarına ilaveten 8 haftalık düzeltici egzersiz protokolü uygulanmıştır. Çocukların fonksiyonel hareket kalıpları FHT testi ile MB’leri Deutscher Motor Testi (DMT) ile belirlenmiştir. Çocukların FHT skorları ve DMT skorlarının ön testleri ile düzeltici egzersizler sonrası son testleri arasındaki farkı belirlemede Wilcoxon İşaretli Sıralar Testi kullanılmıştır. İstatiksel analizler sonucunda, DEG’da FHT toplam skorları ve DMT skorları ön test ile son testleri arasında istatiksel olarak anlamlı bir farklılık bulunmuştur (p<0,05). Sonuç olarak düzeltici egzersizlerin FHT toplam skorlarına ve çocukların MB gelişimine katkı sağladığı gösterilmiştir. Düzeltici egzersizlerin antrenman içeriklerine yerleştirilmesinin çocukların MB’lerini artırabileceği düşünülmektedir.

Purpose: This study aimed to investigate the effect of eight weeks of core stability training on the functional movement screen (FMS) test scores in elite goalball players. Methods: The study sample included 26 elite goalball players. The players were randomized into the two groups of experimental (n=13) and control (n=13). Besides, FMS was used to evaluate the study variables in both groups, before and after the eight weeks of training. After the pretest, the experimental group performed the core stability training using a Swiss ball, three days a week for eight weeks; the control group did the usual training. Then, the analysis of covariance at the significant level of 0.05 was used to analyze the obtained data. Results: The results showed a significant difference in the adjusted mean scores of the FMS test between the experimental and control groups (P=0.021). Conclusion: The positive effect of core stability training on the FMS test scores of the motor function in goalball players emphasizes the effectiveness of this training in core stability muscles. Therefore, it is suggested to use core stability training combined with exercises as an effective way to improve movement patterns and prevent injury in goalball players.

This study was conducted to compare the functional movement patterns of female volleyball players from different countries. 34 the women&rsquo;s volleyball national team athletes from three different countries participated in the study; Turkey (n=9), Azerbaijan (n=16) and Kyrgyzstan (n=9). Functional movement screen of the athletes were determined by the Functional Movement Screen (FMS) test kit. The Kruskal-Wallis H Test was used for multiple comparisons from nonparametric tests in determining the difference between functional movement patterns of national teams. At the end of the study, it was determined that the FMS total scores of the teams were higher than 14 points which were considered as critical limits and there was no statistically significant difference between the FMS total scores of the teams (p&lt;0.05). However, there were significant differences between the teams in the hurdle step, shoulder clearing test and shoulder mobility tests which formed the FMS test battery. As a conclusion, the fact that volleyball players in each country have more than 14 points of FMS total score, which is the critical limit, shows that volleyball players have low risk of injury. This may be related to the elite level of volleyball players and the implementation of correct training models.

ABSTRACT Introduction: Fine motor skills are important for children not only in the activities of daily living, but also for learning activities. In the present study, the effects of supervised physical training were investigated in normal children. Objective: To evaluate the effects of supervised training by combining full-body exercise and the eye-hand coordination activities to improve fine motor skills in a group of five-year-old normal children. Methods: Fifty-two children were selected and randomized in exercise and control groups. The exercise group participated in three 30-minute training sessions per week for 24 weeks. Results: The fine motor skills and hand grip strength of the exercise group were significantly increased, while there was no significant change in the control group during the experimental period. Conclusion: The results indicate that the current exercise training program is effective and can be applied to 5-year-old normal children to improve their fine motor skills. In addition, this program has simple physical activities that are appropriate to the physical and mental level of child development. The 30-minute training session would be easily implemented in the kindergarten program. Level of Evidence I; High quality randomized trial with statistically significant difference or no statistically significant difference but narrow confidence intervals.

Objectives: Pronation distortion syndrome is one of the common physical deformities, that causes distortions in the skeletal structures of the feet. The current study aimed to determine the effects of 12 weeks of systematic and functional corrective exercises on the body posture of students with pronation distortion syndrome.  Methods: In this quasi-experimental study, 30 volunteers suffering from pronation distortion syndrome were selected. Then, they were randomly divided into two 15-member groups, i.e. the experimental and the control groups. The experimental group practiced systematic and functional corrective exercises for 12 weeks (three sessions a week, each lasting an hour), while the control group did not receive any exercises. Before and after the exercises, the students were evaluated using the Functional Movement Screen (FMS) screening test as well as body posture tests, including flat feet, pronation angle of ankle joint, knock-knee (bow-leggedness or genu valgum), and lumbar lordosis (swayback). The obtained data were analyzed using the dependent and independent t-tests (P<0.05).  Results: After 12 weeks of systematic and functional corrective exercises, the experimental group showed significant improvement in FMS and body posture (P=0.001). However, no significant difference was observed in the control group (P<0.05). In general, the body posture of the experimental group was significantly better than the control group (P=0.001).  Discussion: Based on the findings of the current study, systematic and functional corrective exercises improve the body posture of students suffering from pronation distortion syndrome. Therefore, these exercises are recommended for such students.

The functional movement screen (FMS) is an easily administered and non-invasive tool to identify areas of weakness and asymmetry during specific exercises. FMS is a common method of athlete screening in many sports and is used to ascertain injury risk, but has to be used within an equestrian population. The aim of this study was to establish FMS scores for female collegiate age (18-26 years) riders, to inform a normative data set of FMS scores in horse riders in the future. Thirteen female collegiate horse riders (mean ± standard deviation (sd); age 21.5±1.4 years, height 167.2±5.76 cm, mass 60.69±5.3 kg) and 13 female collegiate non-riders (mean ± sd; age 22.5±2.1 years, height 166.5±5.7 cm, mass 61.5±4.9 kg) were assessed based on their performance on a 7-point FMS (deep squat, hurdle step, in-line lunge, shoulder mobility, active straight leg raise, trunk stability and rotary stability). The mean composite FMS scores (± sd) for the rider group was 14.15±1.9 and for the non-riders was 13.15±1.77. There was no statistically significant difference in median FMS composite scores between the rider and non-rider groups (Mann-Whitney U test, z=-1.249, P=0.223). However, 46% of riders and 69% of non-riders scored ≤14, indicating that a non-rider is 1.5 times (odds ratio) more likely to be at increased risk of injury compared to riders. Collegiate female riders scored higher than the non-rider population, but lower than seen in other sports suggesting some riders may be at risk of injury. Riders’ FMS scores demonstrated asymmetric movement patterns potentially limiting left lateral movement. Asymmetry has a potential impact on equestrian performance, limiting riders’ ability to apply the correct cues to the horse. The findings of such screening could inform the development of axillary training programmes to correct asymmetry pattern and target injury prevention.
