Neck training

[AnabolicBoy1981]

I got a 4-way neck machine recently.

How often should i train neck. I have been doin twice a week, but i think it may be too much. Perhaps once?

Once a week like any other muscle. Maybe do neck when you work your traps.

you guys ever hurt yer neck with the machine? I did. i went to heavy on the side movements last week and it's hurt since. It's slowly getting better though. I don't know if the muscles are just in spasm or if i hurt the actual neck. Oh well. Im sure it's clear up. Im gonna def go lighter. i was doin like 6 rep weight instead of 10-12. It's 10-12 from here on out, maybe even 15.

One other thing i was thinkin is, instead of just doin the whole neck once a week, is maybe spliting it into, front and back, and then 3 or 4 days later do the right and left side. The reason i was thinkin bout doin this was that i think it might be better if the side werent interefering with the performance of the front and back and vice versa.
What do ya think about that?

that may be alright! I like to do my neck altogether front and back , left and right but i do see what you mean do it and tell us how it works!

Wrong

Do dead-lifts, Shrugs and Bent-over barbell rows for strong looking neck- there is no two ways to it- when you do this movements your neck goes thru isometric contractions and grows so you dont need a direct movement… period

Neck work is old school.
