Functional Movement Screen
Functional Movement Screen (FMS) is a product of years of innovation and ground-breaking research. Designed by Gray Cook, to help identify strength and weakness in the human body.
Whether your a newcomer or a professional athlete FMS can help improve your health and performance.
I am one of only 2 trainers in the UK to be qualified in CK-FMS (Certified Kettlebell- Functional Movement specialist), an advanced version of the FMS system utilising Kettlebells to correct and improve the human body and performance.
"The Functional Movement Screen is the foundation of our programme. Everything we do builds off of it. We couldn’t imagine not using the programme"

The philosophy behind the FMS is rooted in the concept that, in order to maximise performance, the whole body must be functioning properly. When the body is considered as a chain of individual elements, it's reasonable that a weak link weakens the entire chain. Ignoring a weak link increases the potential for disaster, and strengthening the wrong links will not improve the integrity of the chain. The FMS provides the means to identify and resolve any weak links that may be jeopardising the body and its healthy motion.
The FMS can help you get the most out of your fitness regime and achieve your greatest potential. This system reduces the risk of injury and helps you establish a plan and time line for success.
