International sports programs have established FMS screening procedures as an essential component for identifying students, recreational and professional athletes who are at a high risk of injury. The aim of this paper is to establish the use of the Functional Movement Screening (FMS), as a system which deals with the analysis of the functional patterns of movement and their components and determines the efficiency of the locomotor system through the evaluation of one’s mobility, motor control and stability. This research included thirteen original research papers. Each paper handled the issue and was able to meet the requirements of the set goal. A selection of works from 2010 to 2015 was taken as the method for this paper.

This research aimed to investigate the variation in FMS scores of women performing Pilates exercises 2 days per week, and women performing 1 day of Pilates and 1 day of step aerobic exercise per week after 8 weeks. The research included 60 sedentary female volunteers aged from 35-50 years (age range: 30.4-54.2 years, mean: 41.2 ± 6.37). Subjects in the research were tested for basic movement patterns, stabilization and mobilization. The study was planned to last 8 weeks, with 2 training sessions per week. At the end of 8 weeks, FMS tests were repeated. Statistical analyses used the SPSS program. P values of less than 0.05 were considered statistically significant. The total score in the group with 2 days Pilates per week increased from 13.08 to 17,85, while the scores for the group with 1 day Pilates and 1 day aerobic exercise rose from 13 from 15 (p<0.05). The control group had pre-test measurement of 13.25 and post-test measurement of 13.19, with no significant change observed (p>0.05). While there was no difference between the groups for preliminary FMS results, there were significant differences between the final FMS results (pre-test p: 0.92, post-test p: 0.015). In conclusion, 2 days of Pilates exercise preserved and developed functional movement, stability and mobility and reduced the risk of injury. Though one day Pilates and one day aerobic exercise improved FMS scores, it did not reduce the risk of injury.

Aim. Nowadays, the issue of increasing the overall effectiveness of workout programs, phy­sical training, and rehabilitation, as well as reducing the risk of injury in active people remains acute. This is due to the fact that the number of people engaged in motor activity is constantly growing every year. The use of functional movement screening is aimed at identifying potential risks of injuries and ways to reduce their number, as well as developing an individual training program that will help to ensure active lifestyle. Materials and methods. During 2018, a study was conducted with people aged from 38 to 51 years who scored less than 14 in the FMS test (58 out of 200 people). The study is based on the domestic and foreign theory of sports training. The foreign experience of using functional movement screening was also taken into account. Research methods: literature analysis, testing, pedagogical experiment, mathematical and statistical processing. The testing process itself is based on functional movement screening (FMS). Results. It was found that at the beginning of the study the average FMS score was 9.88 points out of 21 possible (which implies the risk of injury according to the study of American colleagues). After 3.5 months, a significant improvement was achieved (more than 14 points on average). In the group engaged in fitness, there was a decrease in the number of injuries. Conclusion. The study confirmed the effectiveness of the FMS testing system, as well as the use of proposed exercises. The downward trend in the risk of injuries indicates the correctly chosen strategy. The simplicity and availability of the method also indicates its feasibility for the training process with persons involved in fitness.

The aim of this research was to verify the FMS (Functional Movement Screening) method as apredictor of success in performing gymnastic elements on the floor routine and vault, on aselected sample composed of 36 male subjects aged 20 - 22 years, students of Faculty ofPhysical Education and Sport, University of Banja Luka. A battery of 11 motor skills tests wasassessed: 7 at floor routine (side-to-side and front-to-back cartwheel, roundoff, front and backhandspring, forward and backward flip) and 4 on vault (squat through on the vault and straddlevault with pre-flight, front handspring on vault, roundoff vault) together with FMS resultsall results received normal distribution and a relatively low average FMS value(14.313), which according to many authors is near the limit of the risk of injury (14). The overallresults of the correlation analysis indicated statistically significant relationship between FMSand variables PRENAZ (0.049) and SALNAZ (0.038) at significance level of0.05, while the applied regression analysis gave general information on the prediction modelthat showed statistical significance of 0.03 with the predictor variable FMS at the level of significance0.05. Observing the values of the determination coefficients R2, it was establishedthat the FMS method can predict the performance of the selected gymnastic elements on thefloor routine and the vault as an integral model, explaining about 96% of the common variabilitywith a criterion, representing a significant statistical value.
