Chicken neck? Buzzard head?

I went to the physical therapist the other day and found out I carry my head too far forward. (WTF?!) This sounds really weird but apparently it's very common. Seriously. Google it. One of the videos I watched to help correct this said to think of a hook pulling up your solar plexus then hold your chin in and elongate your neck so your ears are centered over your shoulders. I also read that for every inch that your head is too far forward it puts an extra 10 pounds of stress on your neck so with a mere 3 inches your neck has to support a 42 pound head! Holy Crap!
