FMS Certification- Questions With Accurate Solutions
What are the 3 Driving Principles that focus on correct Human Movement?
Correct Answer - (1) First move well, then move often
(2) Protect, Correct, and Develop
(3) Create systems to protect our principles
What is the purpose behind Principle 1? Correct Answer - Became FMS
slogan "Move well. Move often"
Note the period. First need to have Movement Literacy so you understand the
stimuli and can react to them. THEN move often and respond to those stimuli
and be adapted
What did the Kraus-Weber test tell us? Correct Answer - The test, in 1955,
told us that Americans don't appear as fit as everyone else
What is the theory behind the results of the Kraus-Weber Test? Correct
Answer - The SAID principle (Specific Adaptation to Imposed Demands) was
enacted right before the test in 1954. The SAID principle said "You will adapt
if we impose demands" so people became in a big hurry to exercise but not all
were movement literate yet
What will a movement screen tell you? Correct Answer - Will tell you if
more testing is needed
What do we screen? Correct Answer - We screen the patterns that
represent movement literacy. We then have created a movement-based
learning platform of PATTERNS
What is movement screening? Correct Answer - A simple test that starts a
journey and investigation into movement
What goes into the determination of the screens? Correct Answer - (1) The
movements are intentionally simple
(2) Are using biomechanical principles to force the movement honesty
What are the Little Four "Fundamental Tests"? Correct Answer - (1) Leg
Raise
(2) Reciprocal Arm Reach
, (3) Push Up (or Plank) Pattern
(4) Crawl (Reciprocal Pattern in Quadriped)
What are the Big Three "Functional Tests"? Correct Answer - (1) Squatting
(Symmetrical Stance)
(2) Lunging (Asymmetrical Stance)
(3) Stepping (Single Leg Stance)
What are the Little Four Tests biased toward? Correct Answer - Biased
toward Mobility
--Want to identify mobility restrictions
--If they can't move through the range, they can't feel what to do next **
What two things do the Deep Squat do for us? Correct Answer -
Incorporate fully coordinated extremity mobility
AND demonstrates core stability
DS-- How should foot position be established? Correct Answer - The
inseam of the foot is aligned with the crease of the armpit
DS-- How do you set up hand position? Correct Answer - Place stick on
head. Then position arms so that elbows create a 90 degree angle. Then
elevate hands above head
DS -- How to score a 3? Correct Answer - --At lowest position, pt torso
must be at least parallel with tibia
--Femur is just below parallel with the floor
--Knees should not track inside feet (Not buckle)
--Dowel remains aligned over their feet
DS -- How to score a 2? Correct Answer - Must be able to perform all four
criteria necessary for score of 3. EXCEPT can have heels elevated
DS -- How to score a 1? Correct Answer - Cannot perform one or more of
the four criteria even when heals are elevated
DS -- How to score a 0? Correct Answer - Pain is present anywhere in body
during test
