I wanna get rid of my pencil neck can I get a QRD on these?

>>76397009 (OP)
Might as well just wrap a towel around a plate and bench it with your forehead

>>76397009 (OP)
I actually saw this goofy thing at my new gym. It's REAL, someone actually used

Fix your posture first,, its pointless to aim for hypertrophy if you have kyphosis. You clavicle position and windpipe also contribute to the fullness of your neck.

get one of these neck every day bb

It's the 'tism helmet

Set a timer for 2 minutes and hang your head off a comfy bench while laying down.

Simply keep your head neutral while slowly looking left and right, slow and steady movement.

If you can manage 2 mins, do 2.5 mins next time.

If you can barely do 2.5 mins then just keep doing 2.5 mins until next week where you try 3.

Do this every day. It gets tons of blood into the neck and you don’t need resistance. Your head is heavy enough.

>>76397216
seen any results from this?

It absolutely works. I went from a very small neck to a decently sized one.
NEVER ego lift with these. If something feels even a tiny bit wrong, stop. Lower weight or just leave your neck alone for the rest of the day (should probably drop most compound lifts as well since you WILL activate your upper back or neck).
ALWAYS warm up with a lower weight. Yes, you're young and can get away with not warming up for most lifts. Warm up for these.
Keep rep ranges high and weight low(ish), because, yet again, fuck injuries.

My only oopsies have taken place because I ignored the above advice. Injuries took about a week to heal but also made it hard to even have a head attached to my neck. Very annoying injuries.

I bought the neck flex. Had to import it from the US (am yurop). Worth every penny, made serious neck gains. You look kinda goofy in the gym but i couldnt care less. Some granny thought it looked hardcore tho. Watch out with overtraining and injuries. Also if your neck gets too big your sleep apnea increases.

you can also do neck bridges

>>76397009 (OP)
I ordered one of these. a cheap one, so it didn't have the chin strap. I have a massive skull and a head full of hair. so this shit just ended up sliding off my head the very moment I start exercising. returned it, now I'm just doing neck curls while laying on my bed with two 2.5kg plates I tied up together with electrical tape

>>76397009 (OP)
Just use the neck machine

>>76397009 (OP)
My neck is pretty solid. You don't need gear like that to train it. Laying on your back and lifting chin to chest and chin to shoulder and ear to shoulder works well. For the back of your neck hold a bag with water bottles between your teeth like pic related and nod up and down.

My neck is very short which is good for not getting knocked out.

>>76397440
solid neck and solid advice

I've never stuck to exercising with my neck harness because it feels so goddamn goofy.

I'll have to buy weights so that I can do the exercises in my apartment.

>>76397009 (OP)
You do realize you will have to do these excercises for the rest of your life? HAHHHAHAHAH it reminds of a rehabilitation for cripples.

>>76397087

>lets you use Olympic plates

I tried to cook up a joke about "special Olympics" but couldn't come up with anything witty enough. All the makings of a great joke are there, though

>>76398922
My first reaction was laughter, but now I'm wondering if it actually works

>>76397009 (OP)
They are fine, for the back of the neck i recommend holding the weights in a towel and biting it, this also trains your jaw muscles.
It can be awkward to train the front of the neck with this, it's easier to put weights on your forehead, over a towel obviously, and do neck curls.
Neck harness are fine but there are better alternatives for free, if anything you can alternate using a neck harnes and bitting the towel for the back of the neck but that's it, then again you can also do neck extension putting the weights on the back of the neck like with neck curls.

Basically it's meh.

>>76398922
This is unironically superior to neck harness for neck gains since you can train all 4 sides of the neck just by rotating and not having to worry about the weight position.
For neck i would definitely recommend.

>>76398914
You have to do every exercise regularly retard, you think if you bench your way to big pec they just stay like that forever? No you have to keep exercising to keep making gains or even to maintain.
What is the point you're trying to make.

>>76397009 (OP)
Deadlift, power clean and lateral raise is all you need. My neck got so big I got sleep apnea :(

>>76398957
No it's not you fucking retard. That's like saying just do squats to grow your calves. Fucking idiots

out of these 3 only 1 somewhat hits neck area
you're just fat

>>76397009 (OP)
Been using one since april. I only do curls and extensions with them, and I'm currently lifting 50lbs for both exercises, neck went from 15.5 inches to 17.5 now.

None of you know my pain and gains

>>76399199
How much do you weigh?

>>76399206

I guess neither do you

>>76399229

>>76397009 (OP)
I got great results training my neck
I like to do very high reps at bodyweight with my head hanging at the edge of a bed: chin to chest, ear to shoulder, full on rotation

Be careful of not using your jaw, you might clench it
If I use my weighted vest I stay in the 15-25 rep range

>>76397009 (OP)
>sped curls

>>76397440
I fucked up my disc with this thing and it's bad to this day after like 2 years, so be cautious or try to exhaust other (safer) options first.

>>76398922
that's a cool lil hat you got there bro. now check out joe rogan's contraption.

>>76397009 (OP)
Do a lot of shrugs and put on weight. It's that simple.

Don't fuck around with curving your neck under weight.

>>76397009 (OP)
Easy to hurt yourself with curls/extensions/laterals. Instead hang your head + shoulders off a flat surface & do timed isometric hangs - supine, prone, left/right lateral.

If you want after doing it weightless for 10 minutes each side, buy that harness and add 2.5 lbs. Then work up to 10 minutes again.

>>76401804
It's not. Shrugs don't train your sternocleidomastoid

be careful you don't cause injury or you'll be feeling it the rest of your life

>>76398395
Lose weight, fatty
>>76398957
Fatfuck

>>76397009 (OP)

I bought one of these and went from doing 20 with 25lbs to 20 with 50lbs and saw no growth at all.

>>76401938
You're a really terrible poster.

Does anyone have any idea how I can get rid of chronic neck pain? MRIs and xray don't show anything. Physical therapy doesn't help much, and neither has changing my sleeping arrangements. I'm starting to be at a loss for what to do.

>>76403009
Inject BPC157 and stop leaning on your neck when you browse the internet on your laptop while propped up on pillows.

>>76403009
it's pretty woowooo solution but an ear acupuncturist helped with my lower back pain when 3 different kind of super strong painkillers couldn't do anything. could be placebo but if it works, it works.

ignore all the gimmick equipment
watch this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5iPlf4Tmov4
do the head nods only, bridges and walk talls you can worry about in the future
start low at 10 reps for the first few times, gradually increase in increments of 5 when it starts feeling easy

>>76404106
looks dangerous

>>76398213
That can really fuck up your spine. I use a redistance band or my palms and it works fine, as long as you get the right angle/resistance. Tried one of those helmets, but didn't find em stable enough

I have extremely thin bones, deadlifts/farmer's carries to failure will sort you out and wrap up those slender limbs with meat.

I really wish dyels weren't allowed to post here

I recommend you start with this, much safer than weights and bridges. Also gives crazy pump: https://youtu.be/XgNGiDMS2DE?feature=shared
