Relationship Between the Functional Movement Screen and Isokinetic Muscle Strength of Knee in Different Sport Branches

The Relationship Between The Functional Movement Screen and Isokinetic Muscle Strength of Knee in Different Sport Branches

This study was conducted to demonstrate the correlation between the functional movement screen and the isokinetic muscle strength with objective data. Investigators conclude that the use of FMS in combination with isokinetic systems will provide more detailed information on the prevention of injuries to sports and the improvement of performance.

This study was conducted to demonstrate the correlation between the functional movement screen and the isokinetic muscle strength with objective data. 60 athletes involved in volleyball, greco-roman, speed skating, athletics and taekwondo branches were included in the study. The functional movement of the athletes was assessed by Functional Movement Screening, lower extremity isokinetic muscle strength was assessed by ISOMED 2000® isokinetic device.
