How to Strengthen Your Neck

Karen Voight, the L.A. Times’ favorite fitness guru, gives us these two exercises to strengthen the neck. Both should be done while sitting on the floor with legs crossed in front of you and your weight evenly distributed.
1.  Place your left arm at your side with
your fingertips reaching toward the floor. On an exhale, allow your
head to tilt toward your right shoulder. Use your right hand to gently
press your head away from your left shoulder. Hold and relax for
several breaths. Repeat on the other side.
2.  Place both hands behind your head, and
on an exhale, gently drop your chin toward your chest. Keep your
sternum lifted as you point your elbows toward the floor. Use the
weight of your arms to gently encourage the back of your neck to
stretch. Do not allow your back to round forward as you hold for
several breaths.
