abstract="Diminished capacity for physical activity results from the reduction of the locomotor activity of our population, and young people in particular. On the basis of a mass screening study of their clinico-kinesiologic status using an author's method, functional assessment of this status was made employing an author's own constellation, and the term locomotor insufficiency was put forward. In the present article 469 young people aged 17-26 were rated according to the results of the study of 57 objective and subjective clinico-kinesiologic parameters summarized in indices used in the assessment of the locomotor insufficiency. The study revealed a disturbing tendency towards deterioration of the general clinico-kinesiologic condition and muscle imbalance in the investigated young people. Some of categories, such as profession, level of disability, or engagement in sports, demonstrated relation to the parameters which make up the system for assessment of the locomotor insufficiency linked globally and segmentarily with the other systems of the body.<p /><p>Language: en</p>",
