Fitness coaches want to help their clients move better and stay injury-free, but without a structured movement screening process, they’re often guessing instead of making informed coaching decisions.
In this episode of “Strength Coach Collective,” host Kenny Markwardt sits down with gym owner and fitness coach Derek Batman to talk about the role of movement screening in coaching.
Derek shares how he realized his gym lacked a structured screening process and why he implemented table screenings, Functional Movement Screen (FMS) testing and baseline fitness evaluations to help his coaches build smarter programming.
Kenny and Derek discuss how movement screenings help bridge the gap between fitness and physical therapy, why coaches should focus on individualized exercise selection instead of taking a one-size-fits-all approach, and how even a basic screening process can dramatically improve client outcomes.
If you’re a gym owner or coach looking to level up your onboarding, programming and retention, this episode will equip you with the knowledge you need to start implementing movement screens right away.
