Head Harness for Neck Gains

>>41945997

Just get strong at deadlifts and shrugs.
I have a 17.5" neck lean from them alone.

Just do shrugs. You'll fuck your shit up isolating neck.

The only reason to do neck bridging is if you're a grappler.

Trying to isolate your neck is like trying to isolate your fucking fingers.

Work your traps, morons.

>>41945997

Just build up your neck bridges holy shit.
>>41946052
Who gives a fuck about that scrawny fake fitness guru?

Neck bridges are the easiest cheapest way to train your neck.

>easiest way
>no way to progressively overload, unlike a plate and a bench

>>41949205
You do harder variations once capable why so dense?

>>41945997
The only training you need for neck is deadlift, shrugs, and bench press. Heavy ass lifts will do more for you than babby weight isolation gimmick exercises.

What's up guys it's sixpackshortcuts and today I'm gonna show you how to get EXTREMELY cut abs in only a few days. First of all, a lot of guys do weighted crunches to get abs. But it's a common misconception that crunches actually do anything. If you wanna get HUGE abs, stay away from crunches, they're actually BAD for your abs.

had a neck harness for fighty stuff some years ago but it always fucked with my ears because of how it was designed. ended up giving it away.

some recommendations for a new one?

>>41949278
Yes there are studies on it that were done to test exactly what you just mindlessly parroted.

https://youtu.be/q7MCjaJ02eQ

In the description there are 10+ studies about this exact topic.

>>41949293
This is an appeal to extremes and not an argument.

>>41949401
>being 5'4"
>worrying about how masculine you look
Manlets never learn

>>41949401
Your neck muscles work isometrically to support the spine under a load, and you can work against an exponentially heavier load when deadlifting and benching than you can from suspending weights from your head using a harness or bending your neck to move a machine weight.

Heavier weight = greater volume = greater results. This is not even up for debate and it's not broscience.

>>41949296
lol
so every single muscle on his body has got to be fuckheug for him to be able to give advice on said muscle?
>Yeah, his biceps and triceps are good
>But his brachioradialis isn't proportioned optimally
>Therefore I will disregard all of his advice regarding pull ups and zottman curls

>>41949449
Your smaller muscles are not served as well with heavy lifts. They are the first in line for fatigue.

>>41949239
The point about compression and bone spurs that he brings up in the videos is a valid point, why are you so dense?

>>41949576
>the neck is the first thing to fatigue when you deadlift and bench

Keep it up OP. Soon you might reach these type of neck gains.

>>41949633
Smaller muscle group fatigue faster than bigger ones. Did you miss that experiment in grade school science or is it still ahead of you?

>>41949757
You didn't answer my question.

>>41949757
Who do you suppose has the bigger neck: the guy suspending a 25 lb weight from a head harness or the guy deadlifting 500 lbs? Take your time and think it over.

>>41949799
can the guy deadlifting 500lbs do the same 25lb head harness exercise? if not, then the guy with the head harness

>>41949828
You don't need to bother answering >>41949633

You don't lift.

Do neck Bridges and headstands. That's how my dad got a thicc neck. I have a decent neck too and I never train it specifically, I just do a lot of calisthenics and it gets worked out secondarily. As long as you are doing compound movements you will get a thicc neck after a year or so.

>>41949938
lol is that what he told you? bruh, your dad got a thicc necc from bobbing his head back and forth on my fat rod.

>>41949960
My boyfriend says you're a faggot.

>>41949986
that faggot? he only thinks i'm a faggot because i cry when he doesn't put his dick in my butt.

>>41949960
Contact sport people use calisthenics for the neck. So do yoga roasties and you chose to be inferior to both?

>>41949799
the guy who deadlifts 500+ and can do 70lbs 4x50 neck extensions

>>41950001
huh? what are you talking about bro. i'm not criticizing your dad's neck routine, i'm only saying that he sucks my dick. let's keep this civil.

>>41949439
I'm 6'3" lol

>>41947676
As someone said above with the picture of Alonso, F1 drivers train their necks.

Its for strength not hypotrophy though, so as others have said it's probably better just doing other heavy compounds and stuff like shrugs.

Admittedly I am on gear now, but I'm making decent neck gains atm.

W-why? Why out of all posts do you choose to bully me?

>>41950049
I'm not bullying you. Your dad and I are in love. The "lol" and flippant attitude are because I'm nervous about telling you.

whoever thinks deadlift or other compond exercises works neck better than neck curls/extensions, has never done a single neck curl in his entire life.

Just try and see how your muscles get sore in minutes.

>>41950084
W-well, jokes on you! My dad is actually a passive aggressive manlet!

>>41950133
if that's your impression of your dad, i feel sorry for you. he's a remarkable man, passionate and sensitive. he's an amazing lover. you never tasted dat butt?

>>41950123
To add, there are people who has been lifting for a while with deadlifts over 400lbs, and it is not that they acquire neck gains until they specifically isolate them.

And yea, I am one of them who gained much more neck girth within a month with neck exercises, after two years of lifting.

>>41946052
>pencil neck tells you how to grow a thick neck
Yeah, no, fuck off.

are neck isolation worth it

If I somehow added incremental weight to one of my snapbacks do you think I'd get any neck gains from wearing it all the time?
Should I invest in lead hat?

>>41950432
It works for army men.

>>41950013
Exactly. So just deadlift and don't bother with meme exercises.

>>41950480
i deadlift more than you do, and i still think neck extensions are a good exercise for the neck and traps and have seen nice gains from them

you have a lot to learn fag

>>41950475
Alright I'm gonna start wearing a strap-on top hat and stick another 5lb plate underneath it once a week.

>>41950494

You're one conceited asshole. You'd love /pol/.

>>41950710
no you're right, you read starting strength so you know absolutely everything there is to know about lifting, compound lifts are the holy grail and there is no need to isolate everything ever

retarded faggot

you've probably never even done a neck extension or pulled 500, but it doesn't stop you from depositing your dipshit worthless dyel opinion all over the place

He's handsome as fuck from the neck up, imagine how good he would look if he lifted.

Why are people so ass blasted in this thread? If you don't do the neck exercises that compress your spine, start slow and don't be an idiot, you'll make gains. Pretending like any neck exercise will kill you, is normie tier reasoning.

>>41952948
who is this manlet?

>>41950829
Holy fuck probably just (((genes)))

Does it get trained with pull ups? Is it maybe the lat pull down machine that isolates too much that made that guys neck small?

>>41950795
I remember when I used to think that guy looked good.

Better days.

>>41950788
you might be the bigger person, but youre not the bigger person.

>>41949799
>>41950013
I pull 585, and my neck never got larger from deadlifting. After doing high rep flexion exercises hanging off of my bed, my neck is already getting larger.

Deadlifts are great, but it isn't the magic exercise you non-lifting retards think it is.

>>41953763
Deadlifts don't really train anything in particular and are pretty much useless.

I have the spud neckharness and haven't used it for weeks. It works but it's also incredibly hard and awkward to use with free-weight once you get heavy. I would recommend just using plates and a towels or use the neck harness with a resistance band tied to a power rack OR hook the harness to a cable fly machine adjustable weight stack and use the weight stack. But free weight neckharness will eventually get awkward and fuck you up.

>>41946002
Uh, 17.5 inches is average. Lmfao! Dont listen to this guy.

>>41953855

No it isn't.

I would avoid neck exercises. Too much risk to the cervical vertebrae. You fuck that up, you be in a wheelchair.

Yeah, that's why I don't do squats or deadlifts, don't want to end up in a wheelchair man. I'll leave that to the crazy roiders.

I don't know if he did any weighted exercises, but you could look into boxing neck workouts -- and be fucking careful going into it.

Tyson had an 18" neck, iirc.

15.3 inches necklet here.

Which is better, heavy shrugs or lighter weight but slower, paused at the top reps?

>>41954637
Lighter and slower until you build strength. Heavy shrugs are hard to do properly. Most people don't do heavy shrugs right.

>>41954489
You kinda have a point, I definitely wouldn't strap huge weights to my neck like they guy in the OP pic with no easy way of removing it if something goes south, and those bodyweight exercises when you put your weight on your neck look equally scary. However, the one where you put a weight on a towel and do some neck curls seems relatively safe to me, assuming there are no long-term consequences to it.

>>41954662
Makes sense, I've been doing them with 90 lbs dumbbells, which are the heaviest that i can do with (i started doing shrugs only 3 months ago) and I've been thinking of switching to lower weights because it seems like i can't really get to the top position as much as i would like.

>>41954536

There's always one autistic debate team jackass who has to call out everyone's logic

>>41949799
The guy who trains his neck. I know personally many people who can DL that, including me, and their necks are average. Plus, thickness in the neck correlates to more genetic blessings and thus more thick necked people DLing 500 than not, proportionally speaking.

>>41954694
I was a wrestler all the way through college so I had to have a strong neck. Never did weighted neck exercises. My neck is pretty fucked up anyway. Be careful.

>>41954711
Smart move. Work up to heavy weights if you don't have the proper form.
