PERSONAL TRAINER TIP •Yes, prolonged smartphone use can strain your neck, a condition often called “tech neck”

•Here’s 4 Exercises to Release & Strengthen your neck.

1. Chin Tucks (Postural Correction)
How: Sit or stand tall. Look straight ahead and gently pull your chin straight back as if trying to create a double chin. Do not tilt your head up or down.
Duration: Hold for 3 to 5 seconds, and repeat 10 to 15 times.

2. Side Tilts (Upper Trapezius Stretch)How: Sit or stand straight. Slowly drop your right ear toward your right shoulder until you feel a comfortable stretch along the left side of your neck. Keep your shoulders relaxed and down.
Duration: Hold for 15 to 30 seconds. Repeat 2 to 4 times on each side.

3. Side-to-Side Rotations
How: Sit or stand looking straight ahead. Slowly turn your head to the right as far as is comfortable—you should feel a stretch on the opposite side of your neck.
Duration: Hold for 15 to 30 seconds. Repeat 2 to 4 times on each side.

4. Shoulder Blade Squeezes
How: Sit or stand tall with your back straight. Keep your arms relaxed at your sides. Squeeze your shoulder blades back and together, pushing your chest slightly out.
Duration: Hold for 5 seconds, relax, and repeat 5 to 10 times.

PERSONAL TRAINER TIP OF THE WEEK

One of my favorite ways to work on the core is through rotation! These cable rotations hit a lot of different muscle groups and emphasize the obliques.
Make sure you rotate through the back foot so that you engage your hips fully.
Don’t go so heavy that you have to lean forward with your whole Bodyweight. Maintaining proper posture it’s important!
