Short Class 86: Finger CARs
10 - 20 minutes
•
14m
Finger CARs!
No equipment needed.
I’ve had a few students ask for a class for finger CARs, so here it is.
The fingers/hand can be an area where the tissue quality is weak since we don’t often train these areas specifically. If you need to, keep your intensity levels low and try not to push your outer ranges of motion too hard at first, especially if this is an area of past dysfunction or weakness. It’s totally okay to take it slow at first and gradually build up.
If we have a certain rep scheme in the class and you fatigue much sooner than that, that’s okay - you don’t have to commit to that amount of reps, always listen to your body. It’s okay to start off with less reps.
In the class we work 3 different movements.
1. Finger CARs
2. Finger extension/flexion individually
3. Finger extension/flexion collectively
The fingers can be hard to control, especially when it comes to the less dominant hand and certain fingers - like the ring finger. Don’t be discouraged if your control isn’t great - over time, with practice, you will develop much better control. Just do your best when you’re starting out. You can use your other hand to help block the fingers that aren’t supposed to be moving.
This class can be fatiguing to your hands and fingers - it’s much harder than it looks.
Hope you enjoy the class!
