Your phone is wrecking your neck. And you’re on it right now.

Every inch your head drops forward adds 10 pounds of load to your cervical spine. 

Hours of that daily and your deep neck flexors shut down, upper traps take over, shoulders round and stay there.
The headaches, shoulder tightness, upper back ache you can’t stretch out. 

That’s your phone. Not your age.

Two drills to start fixing it:

Neck flexor curl. Flat on your back, chin tuck, slowly curl your head off the ground. 10 reps.

Thoracic extension over a roller. Mid-back on the roller, arms crossed, extend slowly. 60 seconds.

Episode 2 of Stiff or Stuck. Follow for the rest.

👇 Tag someone who needs to put their phone down.
