Functional movement test scores improve following a standardized off‐season intervention program in professional football players
Abstract
The purpose of this study was to determine if an off‐season intervention program was effective in improving Functional Movement Screen™ (FMS) scores in professional American football players. Pre‐ and post‐intervention FMS scores were obtained on 62 subjects who completed a 7‐week off‐season intervention program. A repeated measures ANOVA was conducted to determine the effectiveness of the training program on FMS scores. A chi‐square was performed to determine if there were a greater number of players who met the injury threshold and if asymmetries were reduced following intervention. Logistic regression was used to predict what factors were associated with failure (post‐test score of <14). There was a positive main effect for time (P<0.01) and a greater number of individuals with a score >14 following the intervention. At post‐test, 41 players were free of asymmetry as compared with 31 at the pre‐test. The strongest predictor of program failure was a low squat score at pre‐test. This study demonstrated that fundamental movement characteristics do change with a standardized intervention. Further research is required to determine if injury risk is reduced when a player's score improves beyond the established cut‐off of 14 and/or asymmetry is resolved.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
