Assisted Chin Tuck

The Assisted Chin Tuck helps improve neck strength and posture. This exercise is performed with support to ensure proper form.

  1. Begin by sitting or standing with your back straight.
  2. Gently tuck your chin towards your chest while keeping your shoulders relaxed.
  3. Hold the position for a moment, then return to the starting position.
  4. Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.

How to perform the Assisted Chin Tuck

  1. Set up. Set up in a stable, balanced starting position appropriate for the Assisted Chin Tuck using your assisted.
  2. Brace and execute. Brace your core, control the descent, and move through a full pain-free range of motion while emphasizing your trapezius.
  3. Reset. Reverse the movement under control and reset between repetitions, keeping your form crisp on every rep.

Coaching cues

  • Move with intent — every rep should feel deliberate, not rushed.
  • Drive force through your trapezius rather than momentum.
  • Keep your breathing steady: exhale on the hard part, inhale on the reset.

Common mistakes

  • Using too much weight and losing positional control.
  • Cutting the range of motion short and missing the target muscle.
  • Letting your spine round or hyperextend instead of staying neutral.
