Objective: To determine the predictive value of the Functional Movement Screen (FMS) and the Standing Vertical Jump (SVJ) tests for lower limb injuries in runners.
Methods: In this prospective cohort study, 115 runners aged 18-55 from Tehran were randomly selected. Their performance was assessed using the FMS and SVJ tests, and injury incidence was recorded via questionnaire over a six-month follow-up period. Data analysis was performed using Spearman's correlation coefficient and logistic regression in SPSS version 26.
Results: A significant inverse, though weak, correlation was found between the total FMS score and injury incidence (r = -0.18). A stronger and significant inverse correlation was observed between the right leg vertical jump score and injury occurrence (r = -0.62) (p < 0.05 for both). These findings indicate that lower FMS scores (movement dysfunction) and reduced explosive power/lower limb symmetry are associated with a higher probability of injury.
Conclusion: While the FMS is capable of predicting injury, its limited predictive power suggests it may not be sufficient alone for accurately identifying high-risk individuals. In contrast, the stronger association of the vertical jump test with injury underscores the importance of objectively assessing strength and symmetry as key components in injury risk evaluation. The reduction in power likely reflects muscular weakness or compensatory patterns that compromise dynamic body stability during running.
