Technique
How to perform Seated Head Harness Neck Resistance
- Attach a weight plate using the neck harness's intended loading attachment and keep the weight supported while fitting the harness.
- Sit on the bench with your feet apart, lean your torso slightly forward and support your hands on your knees.
- Let the attached weight hang clear while keeping your torso still.
- Lower your head slowly through a controlled neck-flexion range without swinging the load or requiring your chin to touch your chest.
- Extend your neck to return your head to its starting alignment without leaning your torso back.
- Support the weight again before removing the harness.
