Abstract: Background: Good movement quality is the ability to perform fundamental movements in a properly balanced and well coordinated manner. One of the most reliable methods of preventing injuries is to identify the compensatory movement patterns and correct them for this reason the movement screening test is used, to assess physical deficiencies in active young adults. Aim: To explore the prevalence of rotary instability among young adults. Study design: Cross sectional study. Methods: One hundred and ten participants screened in the study. Rotary stability tests were performed by the participants and it was scored, while the physical activity and flexibility were assessed using International Physical Activity Questionnaire and Sit and Reach Test. Results: Out of 105 participants 39% Participants have score 1, 46% Participants have score 2, 15% Participants have score 3. Out of 32 males 90% of males have rotary instability. Out of 78 females 80% of females have rotary instability. Conclusion: There is a high prevalence of rotary stability dysfunction and asymmetries scores in young adults.
