08 Neck Extension [DO IT] | 15 Controlled Extensions
Instructions
Set up in the Face Plank position with your feet relaxed on the roller.
Find your starting position:
- Cheek into the ground
- P Pull off the ground
- Push your Chin back
- Rotate your shoulders behind the glass and Pinch

Once you have the line, begin your Neck Extensions.
Look up and extend your neck, then tuck your chin back down until you return to the straight line.
Repeat for 15 controlled reps.
Throughout the set, continue checking:
Cheeks → Pull → Pinch → Chin
As you fatigue, you may begin to lose your Pinch or shrug your shoulders.
Re-Pinch the shoulders behind the glass and pull the traps down.
Refind your Cheeks and P Pull each time before continuing.
