Abstract

Simple motor screening of athletes can identify functional abnormalities that lead to stress injuries. Such screening includes assessment of flexibility of all major joints, responsiveness of primary postural muscles, posture, balance, and gait. Present definitions of physical fitness focus on cardiorespiratory function and strength and fdo not properly determine the ability of an athlete to run or walk. The basic motor screen outlined in this article has been shown to be of value in correcting this shortcoming. Verf.-Referat
