Upper Body Warm Up Class
Equipment Needed: Optional. If you have a yoga block, tennis ball, stability ball, and a 1-3lb weight - keep them close by as you can create harder progressions with these items, but none are mandatory.
Time Markers:
0:27 Shoulder CARs (Standing Base)
2:00 Scapular CARs (Standing Base)
2:50 Neck CARs (“Cobra” Base)
4:11 Shoulder Swimmers (Prone Laying Base)

9:35 Scapular CARs (Quadrupedal Base)
10:50 Shoulder CARs w/ weight (Side Laying Base)
13:50 Scapular Retraction + Elbow Hinge (Standing Hip Hinge Base)
In this class we will warm up your joints through several CARs and advanced CARs movements for the spine, shoulders, scapula, elbow, and wrists. This is a great routine to do prior to any upper body activities such as weight lifting, calisthenics, swimming, etc.
You can also treat this class as a standalone option for those days you're pressed for time and want to get a quick buttering in for the upper body.
I hope you enjoy this quick but effective session!
