Came from Matt D'Vella's video. Thank you for the CARs' routine Nicole. I will do everyday from now. This is not easy, especially from hips down, but I know I will get better.
I’m 72. I have arthritis in wrist/hands. Those exercises give me tingly fingers. I have extreme Bunions and I can’t do the toe ones at all. My shoulders and neck tend to be stiff and it’s worse on rainy days which today is❤
Holy Sh*t!! Just saw Tik Tok video discussing . I had a Car accident - person slammed my car ( totaling) from behind in 2015. Herniated and splintered L5 which embedded in my nerve. Ex dancer and excellent power in legs and feet . Not anymore . Horrible muscle memory . Exercise but numbness and neuropathy in foot , Achilles’ tendon ( my foot is not only partially numb but flat ) . I’m starting these today . When these start to make a difference I will scream from the rooftops . I am desperate to function much better and continue to resume all the activities I feel terribly lacking in .
Found you accidentally at 3:25am while unable to sleep and trying to view tik tok on Apple TV. Usually hate exercise instruction because it’s just regimented/mechanical. Your instruction reminds me of Denise Austin who I like because you both are extremely generous with info as you instruct. I like knowing all the filler/extras you share. Never been a workout enthusiast, but, now at age 70, blood pressure is starting to creep up. I think it is strictly due to weight. I gained 20 pounds in 4 years (mostly in middle core area) while caring for my mom and being housebound. I don’t want to go on meds, so I started walking every morning and now plan to add you to my daily routine.
Just found you on TikTok and think you're hilarious! 🥰🥰 This was excellent and I truly felt better afterwards. I'll be ready for your zombie apocalypse team in no time. 🤣🤣
this video is lovely and clear and concise, only thing which would make it even better would be if you talked through even the repetitions, just because it is hard to begin with to know whether you are doing it right and the guidance is needed repeatedly. Thank you.
I do not and I'd ask for clarity. Was this specifically for you? The neck is made to flex, extend and rotate. We injure tissue when the load exceeds the tissue's capacity to hold it. Everything is trainable and as long as you don't feel pain moving in that direction slowly and deliberately, I wouldn't write it off. xx
@@becominghumanpodcast Thanks Wil, I’m intrigued by your comment “supposed”. I wonder, do you like me, find a conflict with the stretch element? We’re taught to rotate before stretching, yet CARS is without doubt stretching, so this has left me somewhat confused! 😊
Hey John, CARS isn't meant to be a stretch per se. You may feel a stretch as you move through the active range of motion you experience in completing these rotational movements. CARs itself is an assessment of how each joint moves, individually, through it's safest greatest pain free ROM.

same. I wonder what she's going to think when her video gets tons of views overnight. lol.
Same, it was 'sweaty' to say the least :D And I thought I had some pretty decent mobility :D
How are the results, my friend?
I loved this video. I have gotten my parents to watch your video everyday
Jesus you have the most calming, pleasing-to-listen-to voice I've heard in a while 😅
aaahahaha. Thanks. My 8 year old would likely disagree
we're best friends now, I'll be here every day!
Wish your channel was still active. Only now recommended by you tube but still so important

This was really useful, clear and needed! Thank you for such high quality content....exactly what i was looking for!
I have used a few morning routine videos and yours is THE BEST! Love your explanations and helpful guidance and camera angels are so helpful.
I'm so glad!!
Love the standing knee CAR! That was a challenging variation I hadn't seen before

Thank you for sharing Deborah! I am proud of you and certain you are proud of yourself too! 🙂

@@the.trustguy yes yes yes!!
Just found you on TikTok and think you're hilarious! 🥰🥰 This was excellent and I truly felt better afterwards. I'll be ready for your zombie apocalypse team in no time. 🤣🤣
thankkkkk youuuuu. haha
I also found you through Matt D'Avella's video. I'm really excited to see what this can do for the chronic pain I feel
Love This!!!!
Found you on TikTok and now subscribed to you channel! Looking forward to learning more about your program.
ohhhhh I'm so glad. LMK if I can be of help...
What a well done video, thank you! Concise with clear explanations and all the views you need! Makes it so easy to complete the CARS routine.
appreciate this!!

Very helpful, thank you! Am I the only who had never heard of the birdie toe? 😆
hahaha. I made that up.
Felt good after doing this, short and still helped me warm up. Ty!!
Thank you!!
Fantastic thank you!
MY PLEASURE!!
The best!!
Just wonderful. Thank you
so glad it's helpful
nice!
thank you
Is it a concern that I “crack” when I do these? I’m 72. Also I have bad bunions and old feet injuries so I can’t do the one toe at a time💕🙏🥰
cracking is okay as long as no pain is present!
interesting, my chiropractor said people should never to take the head back, only side, front to side. Do you know any reason for that?
I do not and I'd ask for clarity. Was this specifically for you? The neck is made to flex, extend and rotate. We injure tissue when the load exceeds the tissue's capacity to hold it.

Will this help if u have any joint replacements?
Hi Steven, yes it will. If you have hardware in the body your soft tissue still needs attention to work with the hardware. CARs will certainly help!!
New friend
Is this CARS routine a “joint warm up” to activate synovial fluid prior to dynamic stretch, or other exercise, or is CARS a stretch routine?
It's supposed to be a joint warm up
@@becominghumanpodcast
Thanks Wil,
I’m intrigued by your comment “supposed”.

@@thenicolesciacca hi Nicole, thanks for explaining. Great video.
Okay but I can control my toe 😂
Ad right in the middle is not helpful for “flow”.
