Özet

Introduction: Functional Movement Screening (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. Methods: The study included 23 male professional football players (mean age: 25 +/- 6.22 years) and 22 sedantery healthy volunteers (mean age: 24.54 +/- 2.75 years). Functional Movement Screen tests were applied by the certified researcher. Respiratory muscle strength measurement were measured with an additional mouth apparatus attached to the portable spirometer 'Pony FX Desktop Spirometry' device. Results: Trunk stability push-up (p = 0.01; r = 0.490), rotational stability (p = 0.025; r = 0,519), and Functional Movement Screen total score (p = 0.02; r = 0.568) with maximum expiratory pressure were moderately positive correlated in professional football players. In the sedantery group, Functional Movement Screen sub-parameters were not correlated respiratory muscle strength (p > 0.05). Discussion: The higher Functional Movement Screen total score in professional football players and their skills in functional movements that require trunk and core stabilization increase expiratory muscle strength were found compared to sedentary individuals. Conclusion: Increase of expiratory muscle strength may be useful in the treatment program when the aim was to Improving functional movement patterns, trunk and core stabilization.
