FMS Level 2

Course overview

The Functional Movement Screen Level 2 Course provides an opportunity to take results from the FMS and apply program design and exercise selection to improve your client's fundamental movement baseline.The Level 2 course will begin with a brief review of the FMS and how to apply the scoring criteria correctly for best results. Then we will discuss how to interpret results from the FMS, decide what your training priorities are based on those results, and teach exercise applications and techniques to improve your clients training results. The seminar will cover vital concepts to understand movement competency and its impact on exercise programming. There will be interactive discussions and hands-on training opportunities to experience the FMS Corrective Experience using essential corrective strategies and techniques to improve movement patterns that have been identified by the FMS Algorithm as a weak link. This course highlights the FMS corrective exercise essentials: breathing, key areas of mobility, motor control, transitional postures, and functional loading. For each of the seven screens within the FMS, specific exercise progressions will be laid out in order to provide the best path to improve, maintain and strengthen those movement patterns. This allows you to determine where an individual should begin, as well as focus, within their exercise program in order to push clients to the best of their ability. Lastly, this seminar finishes with a presentation of case studies and group discussion on program design and integration for key training, performance and rehabilitation environments.
