a. calcium intake
b. maintaining an optimal body weight
c. daily movement through a full ROM
d. core stabilization
c
Why is daily CARs important for every modern human?
a. it encourages blood flow (including nutrient and gas exchange) to the surrounding joint tissue
b. it provides a health-promoting pulling tension through the tissue
c. it is an effective way to improve and maintain joint ROM
d. all the above
d
Which statements are true?
a. a given CARs exercise should involve as much ROM as possible even if it elicits musculoskeletal pain; the slogan “no pain, no gain” applies here
b. it’s important to move each joint through all possible planes of motion; consequently, a given joint may benefit from several CARs exercise variations
b
Although each joint should move independently (joint dissociation) during a CARs routine, which two joints tend to require stabilizing the proximal bone with one’s hand?
a. wrist and hip
b. ankle and shoulder
c. wrist and ankle
d. hip and shoulder
c
Which spine segment has the most, second most, and fewest number of vertebrae, respectively?
a. lumbar, thoracic, cervical
b. thoracic, lumbar, cervical
c. cervical, thoracic, lumbar
d. thoracic, cervical, lumbar
d
Where is the glenoid fossa located?
a. ankle joint
b. hip joint
c. shoulder joint
d. wrist joint
c
Where is the acetabulum located?
a. ankle joint
b. hip joint
c. shoulder joint
d. wrist joint
b
What is the minimum movement repetition for each joint motion when doing CARs?
a. 1
b. 2
c. 3
d. 4 or more
b
The “A” in CARs stands for _____.
a. alignment
b. absolute
c. articular
d. augmented
c
How many CARs sessions are you instructed to complete as part of your homework assignment (activity #1)?
a. 5
b. 10
c. 15
d. 20
b
Which statements are true?
a. CARs exercises should never be performed at a fast pace
b. a daily CARs routine helps the modern human satisfy the minimum movement needs of the human body
b
Which statements are true?
a. the Japanese culture promotes daily CARs
b. joint dissociation is a bad thing and shows a lack of body stability
a
Which activity is most effective at improving and maintaining normal joint ROM?
a. traditional stretching
b. everyday movement
c. daily CARs
d. regular cardio and weight training
c
Which of the following represent contralateral and ipsilateral, respectively?
- 1 and 4
- 4 and 1
- 4 and 2

d
Which plane of motion does this illustrate?
- frontal
- sagittal
- transverse
b
Which plane of motion does this illustrate?
- frontal
- sagittal
- transverse
a
