Episode 4: Movement Screens

Welcome to episode number 4 of The Residents of the Roundtable Podcast. Join Joey, Rayce, and Robert, as they discuss the article "Movement Competency Screens Can Be Reliable in Clinical Practice by a Single Rater Using the Composite Score." Movement screens have been the rage the past 10 years in a hope to decrease injury risk by limiting aberrant movement patterns and asymmetries. Although initial studies may have shown promise, more evidence is mounting against the use of movement screens as a tool to predict injury risk. We discuss utilization of screens such as the Functional Movement Screen (FMS), the Landing Error Scoring System (LESS), and the single leg squat, and re-purposing movement screens for tools other than risk screening. 

Let us know what you think!
