iv been doing upright rows to do my neck, i was ok with these but now i think my technique is going cos every time i do them i get a tightning in my forarm muscle on my left arm. is this normall cos its really uncomfy. can anyone else suggest a different/better set of neck exercises
Sounds like you have weak forearms, so I would work them also. Try adding some db shrugs to start with.
i do db shrugs as part of my workout as wellQuote:

haven't been bowling left handed a lot, have ya?
i have same problem with upright rows, except its weird springing feelings in the back of my triceps, its just weird angle to have wrists at while carrying alot of weight, my solution is just avoiding the exercise...
Avoid what's probably the best exercise for your traps, second only to deadlifts? Bad advice.Quote:

i simply told him my experience, i dont recall saying, do not do this exercise, try reading it againQuote:
