Mar 17, 2025
Don’t worry dear reader, you won’t find any chin tucks in this article. I’m not in the business of sharing strategies that DON’T work.
Here’s the cold hard truth. There is no one exercise that will fix forward head posture. The body does not work like that. You can’t reverse chronic pain or postural problems by doing a few mindless reps of a simple exercise.
You need a plan. You need to understand WHY you’re doing WHAT you’re doing. Only then will your body make the adaptations you want.
Step 1 - Learn how to fix forward head posture.
The first step is education. You can’t fix a problem you don’t understand. So, what causes forward head posture? Lifestyle and weakness.
For the purposes of fixing your forward head posture, focusing on lifestyle and weakness will make a huge difference for most people.
Step 2 - Strengthen Forward Head Posture Muscles
If you search for it, the new Google AI Gemini will quickly list the muscles that contribute to a forward head posture. The only problem with AI is that it pulls information from what’s already on the internet. But what if the information on the internet is wrong? Not completely wrong but just misleading. Out of context and therefore not helpful.
