I'm still working step-by-step to eliminating my forward head posture when doing swings (2 handed).
Currently, I have a hypothesis that I sometimes lose my shoulder packing at the bottom of the swing, which pushes my neck forward.
I know the theory behind shoulder packing, and I know how it should feel when unweighted. But I'm a huge fan of practicing difficult things in isolation, when possible.
1. Do you know of any good weighted shoulder packing exercises/drills that can help getting my shoulder/back more solid when doing swings?
2. What weights would you recommended me to practice swings with while trying to get a rock-solid packing. (I can comfortably swing 16kg/20kg kbs, except that I often get those neck issues/pain because of the forward head posture).
Btw, I only do very short sets with long breaks right now (usually 3 swings/set), and I video record and review each rep.
Any input would be appreciated
