With the recognized Functional Movement Screen (FMS), I quickly and clearly gain insight into any movement restrictions through 7 exercises. Such limitations can occur in stability, coordination, balance, mobility, or flexibility.
I primarily use FMS to determine the actual starting point of an individual at the beginning of a movement program and also to track progress. It is a very effective tool for eliminating weak links in the movement chain and preventing injuries. You benefit greatly from this not only during sports but also in daily life.
In my experience, many people have unconscious asymmetries in muscles and joints. This can cause discomfort, and one may unconsciously avoid certain movements or forms of exercise. Especially when you start moving more, it's important to bring your body into balance. What I often see is that people, after a break of several years, enthusiastically return to their favorite sport and then, to their surprise, experience unpleasant aches or other symptoms. It's a tricky situation: the agility and knowledge are there, but the muscles and joints are not at the old level. Systematically building up and addressing specific issues is essential to continue enjoying the sport and avoid injuries.
If the FMS reveals that you have limited joint mobility, we will focus on mobilizing them. Limited flexibility due to short muscles can be addressed with specific stretching exercises. We improve your stability through strength, coordination, and balance exercises.
And the beauty of it is that you don't have to follow a separate exercise program to eliminate weak links: I integrate the approach naturally into all movement and sports moments.
