How to do a neck bridge

  1. Lie on your back on a mat with knees bent and feet flat on the floor, hip-width apart.
  2. Place your hands by your sides for support and gently lift your hips and upper back off the floor.
  3. Shift your weight onto the crown of your head, slowly transferring load to your neck muscles.
  4. Hold the bridge position while keeping your neck engaged and stable.
  5. Lower back down with control, returning the weight through your shoulders and hips.

Form tips

  • Move slowly and avoid any jerky or sudden motions on the neck.
  • Keep the load light and build up gradually to protect the cervical spine.
  • Stop immediately if you feel any sharp pain or pinching.
