Starting Position
Hold a cable between your teeth with several weight
plates attached to it. Slightly bend your head to the front
and tense your abdominal and buttock muscles.
Execution
Slowly raise the back of your head. Next, lower your head
again and repeat the exercise. Make slow and even
movements, and don’t use too much weight, as you could
damage your teeth.
Variants
The exercise can also be done with the weight on the back
of the head. Other variants are putting tension on the
palms or against a towel, which allow you strengthen the
neck muscles from the rear, front, and side. These variants
don’t train the jaw muscles, however.
