The first section of the CK-FMS will teach the entire fundamentals of Functional Movement Screen system, combining lecture with extensive hands-on lab work.

This program is a product of years of innovation and current research. The philosophy starts with a system that monitors fundamental movement. Armed with this crucial knowledge, you can successfully develop corrective exercise programs based on individual movement patterns. FMS is equally effective in fitness and sports conditioning because it targets the “weak link in movement“.

Because:

“Working on any other part of the chain will not change the strength of the chain.” You’re only going to be a good as your weakest link. If you insist on using band-aids and duct tape, don’t be surprised when things start to rip and tear!

Or, to put it another way, what use is a stronger, more powerful engine, if your wheel is going to fly off at 80 mph?

Specifically, the Functional Movement Screen is a ranking and grading system scientifically created to document movement patterns that are key to normal function.

By screening these patterns, you can successfully and quickly identify functional limitations and asymmetries. Basic movement pattern limitations can reduce the effects of functional training, physical conditioning, and distort proprioception (body awareness).

At the heart of the system is the Functional Movement Screen Score, which helps you target the real problem for any individual and track their progress with real precision. The scoring system is directly linked to the most beneficial corrective exercises to restore mechanically sound movement patterns.

Could you be flying blind, making these mistakes without even knowing it —and often be harming your clients more than helping them?

After this part of your certification training you can confidently:

• Identify physical imbalances or weaknesses and strengthen them with simple corrective exercises
• Teach the difference between movement quality and movement quantity—so your clients themselves understand how they can achieve better results with less apparent effort
• Identify current injury trends and stats as they relate to the prevention of non
• contact injuries
• Understand how “primitive” movement can hold the keys to unlocking your physical restrictions
• Use hands on/passive stretching — to help you become more comfortable touching clients and start to understand the CNS communication between yourself and the client.
• Eliminate poor movement and quickly, effectively, and efficiently replace it with good movement
• Establish a personal benchmark for your own movement patterns with a clear direction and path to help you be more mobile.
