StretchingOtherIntermediateStatic
Primary muscles: Neck
How to do it
- Using a muscle roller or a rolling pin, place the roller behind your head and against your neck. Make sure that you do not place the roller directly against the spine, but turned slightly so that the roller is pressed against the muscles to either side of the spine. This will be your starting position.
- Starting at the top of your neck, slowly roll down the muscles of your neck, pausing at points of tension for 10-30 seconds.
Track it with MyoAmigo
MyoAmigo pre-fills every set of the Neck-SMR from last time, charts your estimated 1RM trend so you can see strength move without testing a true max, and flags a stall with a concrete fix. It also credits this work toward your weekly Neck volume on the MyoMap heatmap. New to the movement? Start with picking a working weight and progressive overload.
