Neck Lift (Swan Neck)
🦢 Neck & Double Chin · updated September 2026
⏱ 30 seconds🔁 3 sets
Targets: front of neck, under-chin
How to do it
- 1Sit tall, then turn your head slightly to the right and tilt it up 45°.
- 2Press the tip of your tongue to the roof of your mouth.
- 3You'll feel the left side of your neck and under-chin engage. Hold 10 seconds.
- 4Return to center and repeat on the other side.
Why it works
- • Works the platysma — the sheet muscle of the neck
- • The tongue press doubles the under-chin engagement
- • Elegant posture as a side effect
Common mistakes
- • Cranking the neck too far back
- • Forgetting the tongue press (it's half the move)
- • Lifting the shoulders toward the ears
