Full Body CARs Routine (Standing)

No equipment needed - you just need to something for balance. You can place your hand against a wall or use a prop like a chair/stick.

In this CARs routine we will do everything from a standing position. This is a nice option for anyone who can’t get on the floor - whether that’s a physical or environmental limitation.

As always, try to do your CARs with good intent and focus. These movements are slow and controlled, while maintaining tension. Try to express your greatest pain-free ranges of motion. Work those outer ranges, but remain aware of possible compensations.

Reminder - never push through any pain. Back out of any range of motion that creates pain, bypassing those areas, and then continuing through the rest of the motion. Work in pain-free ranges only.

You can also regress CARs by not pushing your outer ranges of motion as much and lowering the intensity if you need to.

I hope you enjoy this standing variation!
