My brother has alway done them heavy with no problem. This exercise is not appropriate for most people. If you feel your not flexible enough to do an exercise don't do it.

Just because you don't know the proper way to do these or can't handle the motion, doesn't mean it should get a low rating. I go up to 190lbs on this behind my back with near perfect form.

Most importantly, performing the exercise in this manner will increase your risk of injury to the cervical spine.
