The front bridge can rarely be used to stretch out. But when I call the front neck plank, it is going from basically your front bridge except where you are resting on your forehead, not much or getting the stretch in the back of the head, and then just bring in your feet closer together and farther apart. Kind of like a plank because now you are going to be using your head instead of your arms. And you can make this progressive just by how you position your legs; they are suitable for any sort of level.
I have started with my -- basically with normal front bridge position, but then started moving my feet back pulled there together and fully extended. In the front when you do this that you don't go on the top of your head too much, you really want to do a forehead. You are getting down towards, the nose is touching the ground and the closer you are to that, the harder this exercise becomes, it really works these front neck muscles. So we've got to put a lot of strength, lot of pressure to keep your body like that. Also great for the abs obviously because you are having that extension.
Now with this exercise I usually do it after any sort of drinking, and I will hold the position for 20-30 seconds. I could go longer, but I usually don't, instead just in the position isometrically push your head harder into the ground. About 30 seconds, it just works wonders.
