The Relationship Between Functional Movement and Respiratory Muscle Strength
A study testing Funcional movement screen and Respiratory muscle strength in people with Functional Movement Quality and Respiratory Muscle Strength, run by Pamukkale University at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).
Trial summary
Functional Movement Screen (FMS) is a battery used for injury prediction, identifying asymmetry and weak connections in basic functional movement patterns. The muscles assessed in FMS are also respiratory muscles. Therefore, FMS scores were thought to be related to respiratory muscle strength. Read more about this study

About this study
Official title: Investigation of The Relationship Between Functional Movement and Respiratory Muscle Strength in Professional Football Players and Sedentary Individuals: A Controlled Trial
Functional Movement Screen (FMS) is a battery used for injury prediction, identifying asymmetry and weak connections in basic functional movement patterns. The muscles assessed in FMS are also respiratory muscles. Therefore, FMS scores were thought to be related to respiratory muscle strength. The aim of our study was to examine the relationship between Functional Movement Screen and respiratory muscles strength in professional football players and sedentary individuals.
Read the detailed description
Predicting and preventing sports injuries is very important for football players to maintain high performance. The measurement methods used to predict the injury probabilities of football players are quite expensive. However, in recent years, the Functional Movement Screen (FMS), used as an injury estimation tool in football players, can be easily applied in the field without the need for expensive equipment.
FMS is a biomechanical screening and evaluation method to reveal the limitations and asymmetries on the 7 basic movement patterns, which are the determinants of functional movement quality. FMS test battery aims to evaluate movements that require muscle strength, flexibility, range of motion, coordination, balance and proprioception. In the test; joint range of motion, asymmetry of motion, trunk strength and stabilization, balance, neuromuscular coordination, flexibility and dynamic flexibility properties are determined in a non-invasive, easy and economical way. Spine and core stabilization skills are exhibited in the movements included in the FMS.
In the literature, there is no study examining the relationship between respiratory muscle strength and FMS in football players and healthy individuals. However, respiratory mechanics play an important role in posture and spine stabilization have been shown.
Many functional activities in sports require trunk stabilization to transfer force symmetrically between the extremities. Impaired postural control, poor balance, lack of proprioception, and poor motor control have been shown to cause pain and disability and interfere with normal movement . Primary or accessory respiratory muscles; diaphragm, intercostal muscles, serratus anterior and posterior, pectorals, abdominal wall muscles also contribute to core and body stabilization. Therefore, it was thought that there may be a relationship between inspiratory and expiratory muscle strength and the quality of movements requiring trunk stabilization, balance and symmetry. In order to reveal this relationship, it is necessary to examine the relationship between FMS scores and respiratory muscle strength of trained/untrained individuals with different body types and movement patterns. Based on these assumptions, this study aimed to examine the FMS scores and respiratory muscles strength to investigate relationship between functional movement quality and respiratory muscles in professional football players and sedentary individuals.

| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| Assessment of professional football player | Active comparator | Respiratory muscle strength and functional movement quality of professional football players were evaluated. Functional movement screen and portable spirometer were used for evaluation. Receives: Other: Funcional movement screen; Diagnostic Test: Respiratory muscle strength |
| Assessment of sedantery individuals | Active comparator | Respiratory muscle strength and functional movement quality of sedantery individuals were evaluated. Functional movement screen and portable spirometer were used for evaluation. Receives: Other: Funcional movement screen; Diagnostic Test: Respiratory muscle strength |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Functional movement Screen
FMS was designed to identify asymmetries, limitations and compensations of the football players throughout the movement pattern, not in the joints. It consists of seven basic movements; Deep squad, hurdle steps, inline lunge, shoulder mobility, active straight leg rise, trunk stability push up, and rotator stability. The FMS tests are scored on a scale of 0 to 3, with the sum creating a composite score ranging from 0 to 21 points. Higher scores mean better conditions
Measured: from enrollment to the end of assessment for 1 day
Respiratory muscle strength
Respiratory muscle strength is evaluated by individuals performing maximal expiration and inspiratory maneuvers.
Measured: from enrollment to the end of assessment for 1 day
