While standing upright, sitting or lying on your back, place an elasticated band around your forehead and hold/fix it behind your head with the hands of your bent arms (clasp your hands behind your head, elbows at head height). Tilt your head forwards to stretch/tension the band and lift it back to the neutral starting position (neck extension/protraction).

Select a rubber band with greater resistance.
