Weighted Lying Neck Side to Side
Face up with a light plate held on the forehead, tip the head toward one shoulder and then the other, the face staying toward the ceiling.
How to do it
Setup
On a flat bench face up, head beyond the end and held level, both hands pinning a light plate to the forehead.
Steps
- Tip the ear toward one shoulder, face still to the ceiling.
- Come back through the middle without dropping the head.
- Tip toward the other shoulder and keep alternating.
Common mistakes
Turning the face instead of tipping the ear: the nose points at the ceiling throughout. Head dropping below the bench line: hold it level while it moves. Going for range: a small, even arc each way.
Breathing
Steady throughout; never held.
