How to do a chin tuck

Sit or stand tall with your spine neutral and shoulders relaxed, looking straight ahead.
Keep your eyes level and gently draw your chin straight back, as if making a double chin.
Feel a lengthening at the back of your neck without tilting your head up or down.
Hold the tucked position for a few seconds.
Slowly release back to the starting position and repeat.

Form tips

Move your head straight back, not down.
Keep your jaw relaxed and avoid clenching.
Perform the movement slowly and with control.
