Weighted Lying Neck Head Twist

An isolation neck strengthening exercise performed while lying on your back using a light weight placed against the head for resistance. The movement involves slowly rotating the head from side to side by turning the neck in a controlled motion against the load, then returning to the center with steady control. The body remains stable throughout the exercise to isolate the cervical rotator muscles, and the movement emphasizes smooth, deliberate repetitions to maintain continuous tension across the neck throughout the full range of motion.
