Looking for thoughts from users, but also those also fitness pros (and specifically those who regular use movement screenings, FMS or other) who may have used.
The facility where I work is looking at getting one and just doing some due diligence on the background of it during our initial brainstorming.
My thoughts:
pros: gets people focused on movement quality. Easy to put in a corner of a gym and have people check.
cons: I question the validity of results from 3 squats on camera. With no further assessment, hard to tell what's mobility, what's motor control, where the true bottleneck is. I can't find research on it. I assume recommendations must be generic due to these limitations?
IMO my first point - makes people conscious about improving movement quality - may outweigh all the cons. It would get our members focused more on quality, engaging with staff. It would also get our staff (very few at my facility have education in movement screening) more interested in the background behind assessing qualitative movement.
@Brett Jones really curious to specifically hear your thoughts on this.
