Where would you be without your neck? For one, you wouldn’t be able to turn your head to see, hear, smell, or talk in the direction of your choice. And you’d be a lot shorter. So be good to your neck—give it a stretch.
You Will Need
- A floor
Step 1: Lie on floor
Lie down on the floor.
Step 2: Turn & hold
Turn your head to one side until you feel a comfortable tension, and hold for about 10 seconds.
Focus on keeping your spine aligned straight up through your neck—don’t tilt your chin up.
Step 3: Rotate & hold
Slowly rotate your neck so you’re facing the other direction, stretching the other side. Hold this for another 10 seconds.
Step 4: Repeat rotation
Repeat this rotation 3 to 5 times, each time trying to go slightly further into the stretch.
Step 5: Release & relax
Release the stretch and relax. You’ll be turning heads in no time.
The bassist from the heavy metal band Metallica quit after 14 years, citing irreparable neck damage from head-banging.
