FMS Certification Exam Solved And
Graded A+
What are the 3 Driving Principles that focus on correct Human Movement? - Answer
(1) First move well, then move often
(2) Protect, Correct, and Develop
(3) Create systems to protect our principles
What is the purpose behind Principle 1? - Answer Became FMS slogan "Move well.
Move often"
Note the period. First need to have Movement Literacy so you understand the stimuli
and can react to them. THEN move often and respond to those stimuli and be

What did the Kraus-Weber test tell us? - Answer The test, in 1955, told us that
Americans don't appear as fit as everyone else
What is the theory behind the results of the Kraus-Weber Test? - Answer The SAID
principle (Specific Adaptation to Imposed Demands) was enacted right before the
test in 1954. The SAID principle said "You will adapt if we impose demands" so
people became in a big hurry to exercise but not all were movement literate yet
What will a movement screen tell you? - Answer Will tell you if more testing is
needed
What do we screen? - Answer We screen the patterns that represent movement
literacy. We then have created a movement-based learning platform of PATTERNS
What is movement screening? - Answer A simple test that starts a journey and
investigation into movement
What goes into the determination of the screens? - Answer (1) The movements are
intentionally simple
(2) Are using biomechanical principles to force the movement honesty

(2) Reciprocal Arm Reach
(3) Push Up (or Plank) Pattern
(4) Crawl (Reciprocal Pattern in Quadriped)

Stance)
(2) Lunging (Asymmetrical Stance)
(3) Stepping (Single Leg Stance)
What are the Little Four Tests biased toward? - Answer Biased toward Mobility
--Want to identify mobility restrictions
--If they can't move through the range, they can't feel what to do next **
What two things do the Deep Squat do for us? - Answer Incorporate fully coordinated
extremity mobility
