Neck Retraction Lateroflexion Lying

Video coming soon...

The Neck retraction lateroflexion lying workout is designed to primarily engage the Neck muscles.

By lying down and retracting the neck, the bodyweight acts as resistance, targeting the Neck muscles directly.

While other muscles may be involved, the emphasis is on the Neck, avoiding overstating the effect on auxiliary muscles.

This exercise is effective for strengthening the Neck and improving posture, using the bodyweight as resistance.

Lie on your back on a flat surface, such as a mat or the floor.
Place your feet flat on the ground, hip-width apart.
Keep your knees bent and your arms relaxed by your sides.
Gently tuck your chin towards your chest, retracting your neck.
Slowly turn your head to the right, bringing your right ear towards your right shoulder.
Hold this position for a moment, feeling a stretch on the left side of your neck.
Return your head to the center and repeat the movement to the left side.

Start by lying flat on your back with your knees bent and feet flat on the ground, ensuring a comfortable and stable position.
Place your hands by your sides, palms facing down, and relax your shoulders, allowing your neck and head to rest comfortably on the ground.
Engage your core muscles by drawing your belly button towards your spine, creating a stable foundation for the exercise.
Begin the movement by gently retracting your neck, drawing your chin towards your chest, while keeping the back of your head in contact with the ground.
Next, slowly laterally flex your neck to the right, bringing your right ear towards your right shoulder, feeling a gentle stretch along the left side of your neck.
