How to Do
How to Do Neck Rotation With Single Leg Balance
The neck rotation with single leg balance should begin with good posture to avoid injury. Brace the spine by drawing your lower abdomen inward. Your core muscles should be activated to support your posture as you perform the exercise.
If any pain is experienced, immediately stop the neck rotation with single leg balance.
Beginning
Beginning Neck Rotation

The foot that is behind you will be held a couple of inches in the air off of the ground. Keep your feet slightly wider than shoulder-width with a gap between them of about six inches.
2. Both of your arms will be to your sides.
3. Using your nose as your lead mover, twist your head from side to side.
4. Repeat for repetitions.
