Neck

Neck Harness Extension

Intermediate Other Isolation Neck

How to do it

  1. Fit the neck harness and hang the load on its chain.

  2. Sit or stand bent over with your hands braced on your thighs.

  3. Lower your chin to your chest slowly until the chain is taut.

  4. Raise your head to neutral, hold briefly, then lower under control.

Common mistakes

  • Adding load too quickly — the neck adapts more slowly than other muscles.

  • Setting the chain too short so the load jerks at the bottom.

Tips

  • Only use this once unweighted neck curls feel too easy.

  • Two sets a week is enough for most people.
