Here you can follow along and do your CARs routine like a class.
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. 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.
This is the routine I recommend everyone do every single day. You should do this CARs routine on the days you don't do the classes. In the classes we will do a select handful of these movements to warm up for more intense movements so you will get your CARs dose there as well.
Consistent CARs = buttery joints
