Band-Resisted Neck Lateral Flexion
A step-by-step form guide from the Ægir Iron exercise library: how to do the lift, what to watch for, and the muscles it trains.
- Equipment
- Band
HOW TO PERFORM
- Sit side-on to a band anchor, or lie on your side on a bench with the head off the end.
- Let the head tilt away from the working side.
- Bring the ear toward the shoulder without shrugging or rotating.
- Lower slowly and repeat, then train the other side for the same work.
FORM TIPS
- Match the sets and reps on both sides. Wrestling already builds a dominant side; this is not the place to add to it.
