No one wants nerd neck, or whatever we are calling it in our year of the Lord 2025.

I wonder what we called it in 1946?

Anyway, I get the FEAR around neck issues, and we have to have a boogeyman.

Here’s a few exercises I like to address neck pain give you control over your posture, and the best way to implement them.

*note: this was a tweet (free) and its now a paid post. Subscribers get a ton more detail and access to our neck program (at the end)

#1 Lift your chest UP (not back)

Anytime you walk through a doorway, LIFT your chest up. Since Ideally you walk through a doorway 1000’s of times a day, you should do this with a lot of frequency.

Lifting UP is very important - the idea is to raise you sternum and create tension in the area UNDER the shoulder blades. NOT chest BACK and create tension BETWEEN the shoulder blades.

Why’s this important?
