This lesson video breaks down Standing Spine CARs - a drill built to teach independent control of your spine through flexion, extension, and rotation. The main objective is spinal segmentation and awareness: moving the spine on purpose while minimizing compensation from the pelvis and hips. That means avoiding the common shortcuts - especially hip hinging and shifting through the pelvis to “fake” spinal range. Done slowly and with clean intent, Standing Spine CARs improve movement quality, posture control, and the spinal strength that supports training, daily life, and long-term resilience.
