Tips

• Smooth Movements: When performing the rotating neck stretch, make sure your movements are slow and controlled. Jerky or fast movements can strain your neck muscles, leading to discomfort or injury. Avoid the common mistake of rushing through the stretch.
• Don’t Overstretch: It's important to stretch only to the point where you feel a gentle pull, not pain. A common mistake is to push past your comfort zone, which can lead to muscle strain or damage.
• Use Your Breath: Breathe deeply and steadily throughout the stretch. This helps to relax the muscles and allows for a deeper stretch. Don't hold your breath, a mistake many people make when stretching.
• Consistency is Key: To get the most
