In this video, I discuss neck training: what is it for, how does it work, and why do you need it in your life?
Neck training helps to add size and prevents the "Ned Flanders effect" (where you look skinny when wearing a shirt, even if you're actually jacked!). It can also help to prevent concussion by keeping your head steady.
More interestingly though, neck training can also help you to move more quickly, to better track objects on the horizon, and to experience greater stability and balance. It even aids with breathing and the transmission of signals!
Neck training is therefore about much more than just neck curls. In this video I discuss those options, as well as neck bridges (yay or nay?), isometric training, ballet training and more. Enjoy!

It is also possible to find a corner, fold a towel, and lean at whichever degree you are safe and comfortable with, and lean your head against the folded towel, against the wall, and perform neccessary repetitions. Thanks for another great video (and amazing book, (seriously, anyone else reading this needs to buy it, if you want a century worth of the best training, laboriously researched from the best of the best in the field)).
Yes!! Brilliant shout, I forgot to include this :-D

Congrats for the upcoming 100k subscribers , you deserve more man.
Is neck training in the book?
@@19grand I apologize for the late response but yes, it is.
@@TheDamianvain17 no thnx
Alpha Destiny will be proud of you Now.
Awesome :-D
This channel is ahead of it's time
This guy is lethal.,..🏆💎✊🏽💥SOLID RESPECT
also (golden era bookworm ) another great channel
Jeff Cavaliere says you should tuck your chin in ward to protect nerves, etc. in the spine.
It works.
Nevermind, you watched that video also. I shouldn't be surprised.
More like stoked.
Cheers mate
He da man!
Jeff
Wasn't this for strengthening the deep flexors?
@UCkmBfAILsPnCT0l33zSwnzA titz
no
Neck is very important it's connect your body and your head
Julian Hill cheers for that mate
Source?
That's been debunked bro, sorry.
@Top Lobster your fingers is important they connect with thr hand
After my neck exercises I get in a better mood and I have also seen my face looking better
Noticed mood changes after first small workout. Head instability and emotional instability could be tied together. Not to mention better nervous signals travelling down the body to multiple organs and sending better information, improving their health and functions.
@@cristiplopeanu whenever I throw neck it works the mind and other organs.
Definitely agree, am 3 months into doing neck workouts 3 times a week and not only has it grown a full 2 inches , my neck feels stronger, makes your appearance look better and yes helps relief tention
@@shaer6 did you use weight bro or the hand thing he said?
@@ista7 Hi, I use a 5 or 10kg weight with neck harness for back of my neck.. for front of neck i lay on bed facing up and my head will be off the bed, place weight on forehead and bring chin to chest..
There have been times I used a resistance band while sitting down place the band around your head while your holding 2 ends at the front then rep up if that makes sense.
I also do 10 sets with 20 seconds of work and 10 seconds rest .. I use an interval timer app to set that up. I now do it's 1-2 times a week which I find a sweet spot for me .. hope this helps 😁
Every school on this earth should have a human anatomy body development class with The Bioneer
Just grow your hair and after washing, to dry it headbang furiously in every possible direction. Enjoy neck pump (and lush hair).
Nice!
And whiplash.
@@ayyutha Well, nothing's safe.
@@EMOCLEW.109 True but you can make it a lil bit safer I guess.
@@ayyutha True
You can also do side to side neck rotations lying down on your back or belly. The longer you are in one of those positions, the more you will feel your neck working.
Hell yeah, this vid is exactly what I needed, brilliant content mate.
Thanks man. I needed help because my neck and my spine have been feeling weird lately.
Always love the isometric suggestions. Anything to make exercise more convenient as it will mean I train that muscle group more often
Really good tips in this video. The overcoming isometrics are a grate idea because they make training your neck way more convenient.
A very underrated channel....we should share these links around to give him more exposure..... almost 100k subs man....keep up the good work .
Wow, I knew neck training was important but I never knew it had this much into it. Sadly I currently have a spasm in my neck muscles which causes straight neck. (being a cs student demands sacrifice) After recovering from that with the rehab exercises that the doctor gave, I will definitely start training my neck. Thanks for the amazing video!
Thanks for watching! Get better soon man 😁
Did you recover yet?
This guy is just a blessing to humanity.
Touching the back of the neck and looking around was so cool feeling! Makes so much sense. “Where your gaze goes”
Hi Adam. I began training my neck several years ago due to pain from a neck injury received during a car accident. Also to help prevent more problems from any future neck trauma. Great video! Thx for posting!
Literally the day I look up neck training for bjj, this is uploaded. I subscribed to the right channel
I have scoliosis and this headgear changed everything for my scoliosis correction therapy. Great direction to encourage people to go.
I have scoliosis too. How did it change it?
I knew about working out the neck. However, your video reminded me that I have been neglecting these. Thank you
WHOAAAA DUDE!! I just did the thing where you hold the back of your head and do lateral eye movement and I felt the movement
Great video! Beside overcoming isometrics, I'll use my hands to provide resistant while slowly rotation, flexion, pro/retraction. It's amazing how much just resistance from ones hands can fatigue and strengthen the muscles.
*AlphaDestiny has entered the chat.*
Great and usefull videos Adam👍
I'm a MMA fighter and it's helped me a lot
Thank you
Great vid! Thanks for the great tips, info, and talking points!
I'm amazed that at 4:50 you are predicating that people should be more concerned at what other people think than being a leader and doing what you naturally know to be helpful to the human body.
Really good advice here. A couple of things I get people to do is keeping the head still whilst moving the trunk underneath it (I.e. looking at a screen whilst rotating the chair you're on). And reactive training - one of the most important thing the neck musculature does is resist forces trying to move the head. So getting someone else (who's not too mean!) To try and push your head in various directions whilst you try to maintain a constant position can be really helpful for injury prevention in basically any contact sport.
Bro!! Your channel is just sick!! Guys like you are what give CZcams fitness hope haha!! Would love to interview you or something one day man!! Top guy
I love the fact that you put dbs in this video much love new subscriber.
Always great detailed videos
You sir are a legend
Great video! Also I'm enjoying your new book, it's huge and useful!
Awesome! Really glad you’re enjoying it 😁
Thank you for another great video. You are shining a light on the hows and whys of qigong exercises I learned deacdes ago (and how I was doing them wrong and not getting the full benefit). So thank you. You have encouraged me to start training again.
Amazing video dude, was just looking to implement neck training into my routine
Hey i hope you don't take this the wrong way, but you shouldn't over extend your neck when you do these exercises ,AMAZING as always Adam keep it up !!!
With the Netflix series coming up, how about a Geralt (Witcher series) training video?
I’ve been using a light resistance band round my head lightly holding in place hooked round a post. I feel it works well and makes my neck feel awesome.
I love your channel trying new things that people don't do. The DBZ SUPER is a excellent choice sir
I bought a neck harness a few months ago, and it's been awesome. With a plate it's just OK, but with a band or a cable machine it's fantastic.
You have exceptional videos I can tell you're very highly intelligent person you know how to articulate very well
A very unique and often overlooked group of muscles in the body but they hold significant value in the overall performance of the body’s capabilities
great man, neck training is amazing, gotta be a full human badass!
Love this! It's like the weird idea of training your tongue which effects eyesight and balance!
The Bioneer + Athlean X = TOTAL RESPECT
You deserve a million subscribers.
Bit of a necro comment but I highly highly highly recommend checking out an Iron Neck. I know you somewhat referred to it but it really is an unbelievable piece of equipment. Legitimately changed/saved my life
Thanks for the cool video. I have neck issues for many years and I experimented a lot. You’ve missed out on diagonal rotation> e.g. lay on your back and look towards your shoulder. Then turn your head to the front and at the same time bring your chin towards your sternum. Do this slowly and feel every vertebra doing it’s part of the motion. Do it seperately for left and right. And do it for all 4 quadrants, like start with a straight head and curl your nose up towards your shoulder. And then the same for the back of the neck, laying face down.
On the relaxing bit, I like to add drawing a vertical 8 with my nose.
I'm having difficulty visualizing this
You are my fav youtuber since you resemble me, maybe even younger me (when I was 5-6, in terms of enthusiasm and covering ALL aspects on your own and energy).
Can you PLEASE DO A VIDEO ON STRENGTHENING LIGAMENTS, ESPECIALLY ATFL, CFL and knee ligaments?
I know this video is older but for anyone that wants tips for posture; you want to imagine a string is attached to the crown of your head and its being pulled upwards, then roll your shoulders backwards for a full 360, and set your pelvis to be nice and neutral.
Pleeaaaseee do Bodyweight Workout for size! I'd love to sed your scientific approach on this topic.
Excellent advice
Yess please do a bodyweight workout for size and juraz valley wokeout please
Another good neck workout we use in Martial arts is using a resistance band/loop. loop one end around a stable fixed point and put your head in the loop on the other end and do a couple of sets of "curls" in every direction.The more resistance you feel you need, the further you stretch the band between your head and the point the band is looped onto. But if anybody here does try this, please make sure you dont loop the end around something that can come loose like a cup hook or some kind of wall embedded hardware. I think we all remember the video of the kid using resistance bands in front of his fish tank. rather loop one end around something like a pillar or the side of a pullup bar or squat rack. Also if you're on a budget you can use a bicycle inner tube cut down to your optimal resistance.
I do that myself, too!
@@nicoconcepcion1027 Works great doesn't it?
Great shout thanks!
@@TheBioneer You're welcome, and thank you for another great Video.
An neck exercise I want to mention is one I do regularly is for rotation. Use a medicine ball and lay back on a bench as you would if doing neck curls. Actually you can do this on the ground too.
Put the ball against your head and roll your head from right to left, and back, using your hands to guide the ball and keep it above your head. ( So the ball will be rolling from one side of your head to the other side as your head turns of course)
Wear a toque if its uncomfortable. It's a bit tricky but good. I'm actually using a coffee can with some wrist weights in it at the moment lol..easy to adjust the weight.
Great video. Cheers.
How's the training going mate?
Love the info and cheeky style 😜
Thanks I am going to do some now your videos are amazing thank you so so much I am so happy I found your Chanel
I am experiencing neck pain while doing handstands, I will try some of this exercises I think they could help
Great information!!!!!!!!!!!
Awesome video. Thank you!
Never seen anyone ever do this, Ill try it
Jeff Nippard, Jeff Cavaliere and Alpha Destiny? I’m shaking my head (hopefully working my neck as I do so!).
Mike ‘The Machine’ Brice is the King of neck training.
Amazing fountain of information
Tysm
The ballerina tip
has to be one of the best pieces of information I’ve had in recent time.
You should look into Iron Neck. I got one, and love it.
I hit all these directions using a resistance band. Super cheap and effective
I wrote to the great Paul Anderson regarding his 23+” neck. He wrote back with his favorite!
Awesome information
later swinging, side bent, vertical swing small and big, combine both into one rolling motion backward, and up, isometric should stretch to give your neck maximum extension are some excercises I would like to add.
This video was very educational. Who knew the neck had so many different ways to be trained?? Loved it.
Also I have an unrelated question, im a 17 year old trying to lose fat and put on muscle. And no matter how hard I try, I can't get enough protein in my diet. Should I consider Whey Protein powder and shakes?
Make sure you do a 100k subscriber video almost there!!💪🏿
Thanks man! 1.5k to go!! 😁
Awesome channel :X!
excellent channel
I've said it before, whenever I'm discovering a concept and I think I know the vast majority of how to get around to training it, you always baffle me with some knowledge I never read/heard about before! Thank you for this great video.
Also did you ever sustain a concussion?
Awesome really glad it was useful :-) I never like to make a video unless I can find something new to add to the conversation. And I have - I swam into a wall wearing flippers lol! As an adult I got attacked and punched lots of times in the head, but no concussion 😎 Realise that story doesn't come off as cool as I hoped 😂😂
@TheSwoleBroscientist Britain. Damn, who'd guess 😆😆
@@TheBioneer knew he was batman
Great video
Fantastic video, dude. I was just thinking you could maybe do a video on which body parts/muscles each sex has evolved to be attracted to.
Great content, humility and balance of views. Why the backgroumd music while taking though?
Adam Ondra, widely considered the worlds best rock climber, has a really good neck. Eric Horst wrote an article with a bit about how adam uses his long neck as a pendulum. Coincidence?
Wrestler and football neck exercises are very useful for building up neck muscles fast.
i like how you see other people's content like jeff cavalier and nippard
Excellent
the inertia experienced on the neck from running is probably greater than the force of the weight used with the strap.
This is the best channel on youtube. Could you make a video on Indian clubs?
Thanks! And definitely, I got one recently 👌👍
I want to order your book but is it possible to get it as an actual book and not an E-book? Thank you and great information!
I’m glad I have genetics to have a thicker neck , I never would want to train it regularly as it seems kind of dangerous 😂 I’m constantly cracking my neck it’s got so much stress in the neck / trap area
A combination of barbell shrugs and wrestlers bridge works for me.
Brock Lesnar, Bill Goldberg, Kurt Angle, Chris Benoit, Mike Tyson 💪
Kurt angles neck destroys them all
Bruh takeo spike neck will destroy them
But I don’t use steroids

@@hangryturtle9006 why not?
Thank you
i remember some interesting neck exercises in my old charles atlas book.
step by step becoming better
I get hit in the head a lot cause I’m an amateur boxer. Thanks I needed this
Good content. Thoughts on headstands, a la yoga practitioners? Thanks.
I'm getting a real lateralus vibe from some of the illustrations in this vid
Cool! These are stock images from Envato Elements but I thought they were pretty cool 😎
I like having a york imprint on my forehead when I'm training neck 🤣
Wear a beanie or some shit so u don't have a dent or ur forehead
Real shame neck bridges cause impingements. They look fun
Another great video 👏👏 I have a quick question for you about tendons and I can't find much information on the topic. We have muscle memory that allows us to bounce back from being lazy, but I was wondering if tendons had a similar mechanism. Otherwise after a significant time off we would be at increased risk of injury as the tendons would be lagging behind the rebound from the muscle memory?
Tendons and ligaments get hurt easier than muscles, because those muscles spring back to life faster. So be careful.
You should do a video on jumping.
thank you bro!
Try resting the back of your head on the edge a bench or couch, sitting on the floor, knees bent. Now straighten the neck and upper body into a straight horizontal line.
Adapt this to do all sides of the neck, shift around to make it harder or easier.
is this like a safer version of the wrestler's bridge? It sounds like that to me, thanks for your suggestion 👍
6:08 neck rotation, but with a different direction of gravity; lying on a bench looking up and lying on a bench looking down (my invention).
U gotta do em too buddy ! Supernecessary ! 😀
