Popis: Background: The objective of the study was to assess the functional status of people who regularly climb for recreational purposes, using the FMS (Functional Movement Screen) and core stability tests (McGill's torso muscular endurance test battery). In this paper, an attempt is also made to determine the relationship between assessment of functional efficiency and the results obtained in core stability tests. Material and methods: The study group comprised 30 amateur climbers (aged 26 ± 3), who were compared to a control group of 30 people who do not climb but recreationally practice volleyball (aged 22 ± 3). All participants performed each of the 7 FMS trials and the 3 McGill's tests. Results: Amateur climbers, in comparison to non-climbers, achieved higher scores in each of the core stability trials (p
