Introduction: The
measurement of physical fitness is an important part of the recruitment and
training process of police officers because the job ranges from physically
non-demanding (i.e., administrative work) to highly demanding (i.e., chasing,
arresting the belligerent or controlling a riot). Accordingly, future police
officers (i.e., police students, cadets or trainees) typically complete a
physical training program to improve their fitness level before becoming sworn
officers. To complete tasks given during police recruits physical exam needs more
stability of spine and pelvis and our global muscles (slings of muscle system)
helps to improves stability of spine and improves the movement pattern of the
body. Introducing the functional integration exercises helps to improve the
stability of spine and pelvis. The FMS aims to identify imbalances in mobility
and stability during functional movements.
Aim & Objective: To
find out effectiveness of functional integration exercises on functional
outcome among police recruits in Maharashtra state by using functional movement
screening (FMS) score over the period of 4weeks.
Methods: We
conducted experimental study among 53 police recruits from Pune. Null
hypothesis was created followed by alternative hypothesis. We collected data
from the field as per inclusion criteria. We used Microsoft excel for data
entry and Graph pad instat (version 3.0632) for statistical analysis.
Results:
There was significant rise in score on FMS after functional integration
exercises among participants.
