Brush your Teeth and Floss your JOINTS: Daily CARs Drills for Joint Health & Function

7/15/2021

Daily practice is essential for improvement. Whether it's skill acquisition, health related, or performance driven, we need consistency to see results. When it comes to joint health and function, it's no different.
CARs playlist on my YouTube channel

You may have heard me preach that mobility training is fundamental to specific training for strength, speed, endurance, weight loss, etc. Without adequate mobility, we limit our degrees of freedom to move and likely put excessive loading on our joints while increasing risk of injury. So any other type of training modality becomes less effective when battling a mobility limitation. I'm not saying to ignore training for goals outside of mobility altogether, however, I am suggesting to improve your limitations when it comes to mobility in order to maximize your goals across the board.

So how do you practice your mobility fundamentals daily to maintain and improve joint health and function? The answer is CARs, or CONTROLLED ARTICULAR ROTATIONS. CARs are essentially big controlled circles with your joints. By putting our joints through their full range of motion, we ensure that joint health and function is at least maintained if not improved. Just as we brush our teeth daily for dental hygiene, we practice CARs every day for joint health.

Check out my daily CARs practice broken down for you step by step. Keep in mind, CARs can be completed at varying levels of tension and pace for different outcomes. I like to practice a few reps per joint in the morning (while my coffee is brewing) at a very low intensity and moderate pace to get my body moving and ensure I get a minimum amount of daily movement for joint maintenance. Remember, (in my nagging parent voice) to brush your teeth and floss your JOINTS every day!

Wim Hof Fundamentals Workshop

5/1/2019

WHEN: Saturday, June 8th |10:30 am- 2:30 pm
WHERE: Next Level Strength & Movement
INSTRUCTOR: Daniel Cortez

THE EXPERIENCE
Put yourself in the expert hands of a certified WHM Instructor to learn the 3 pillars of the Wim Hof Method: Breathing Technique, Cold Exposure, & Commitment. Find out how you can utilize oxygen and cold exposure to optimize body & mind and learn about the underlying physiology that makes the seemingly impossible possible.

The intimate quality allows for ample personal attention, and feedback tailored to your specific situation. Whether you are looking to improve mental or physical performance, relieve symptoms related to an illness, or are just curious to find out what the Wim Hof Method is all about— a WHM workshop offers something for everyone.

The program kicks off with an introduction to the Wim Hof Method, and always includes a breathing session and an (optional) ice bath. At the end there is ample room for reflection, and the Instructor is there to answer questions throughout the workshop.

WHO IS THE WORKSHOP FOR?
This workshop is suitable for everyone, but does require a basic level of health. Out of precaution, we advise against participation during pregnancy, or if you are epileptic. People with cardiovascular issues, or any other serious health conditions should always consult a medical professional before starting the Wim Hof Method.

If you have no prior experience with cold exposure, we recommend you finish your showers cold in the days leading up to the workshop. This may be overwhelming at first, but just try to relax, focus on your breath, and bring it into a controlled, steady rhythm.

WHAT TO BRING
Towel, bathing suit, change of clothes, a light snack, journal and pen.

ABOUT THE INSTRUCTOR
Daniel Cortez is one of the first Wim Hof Method Master Instructors, Primal Health Coach, and Certified Personal Trainer obsessed with fitness, human performance, and athletics.
In college, Daniel began to experience health problems. For several years after college he pursued teaching and coaching at the high school level, but found his health unraveling.
Daniel's chronic health battle lasted 15 years and led him to becoming fascinated with evolutionary biology, anthropology, nutrition, and movement.

Most importantly, he found his calling to help guide others on their own health and wellness journeys. Daniel's battle with illness, combined with working for years as a teacher and earning a law degree, has allowed him to craft effective "big-picture" solutions for his clients. During his long battle with chronic illness, Daniel gained a greater appreciation for the importance of viewing the world through the collective lens of evolutionary biology and anthropology.

This understanding helps Daniel teach people how to live and move like a healthy human being. The emphasis is always on a mindful approach to the journey. Daniel coaches clients 1-on-1 online and in-person and leads workshops and retreats. He currently resides in Cusco, Peru.
