Unlocking Joint Health: The Fundamentals of Functional Range Conditioning (FRC)

Greetings, FitByFysh Enthusiasts!

Today, we are talking a little about what makes up the main components of FRC, AND you get a free follow along video! Your very own daily CAR routine!!

What is Functional Range Conditioning? FRC is a system of training which applies scientific methods to the acquisition and maintenance of functional mobility. The goal of FRC is to not only expand the range of motion but also to teach the body how to control these newly acquired ranges.

Core Principles of FRC:

Joint Health and Longevity: FRC focuses on improving the health of your joints, ensuring they can move freely and withstand daily stresses.
Functional Mobility: This is mobility that is usable and beneficial in your daily life and activities. It’s not just about stretching muscles; it’s about improving the functional capacity of your joints.
Body Control: FRC trains your body to control the full range of its motion, reducing the risk of injury and improving performance.

Controlled Articular Rotations (CARs):

A fundamental element of FRC is Controlled Articular Rotations or CARs. These are rotational movements at the outer limits of joint motion, which are performed slowly and deliberately.
CARs are designed to improve the range, fluidity, and control of joint movements. They are an excellent starting point for anyone looking to enhance their joint health and mobility.

Why Embrace FRC?

FRC enhances joint mechanics, which translates to better movement in sports and daily life.
It helps in identifying and rectifying limitations in joint function before they become problematic.
FRC principles can be applied to everyone, regardless of fitness level or age, making it a universal approach to improved movement.

Stay healthy, stay mobile, and remember, your joints are the gateway to freedom in movement!
