Neck Harness Extension

The neck harness lets you load neck extension with plates for serious neck development, favored by wrestlers, footballers and combat athletes. A strap over the head holds a plate that you raise and lower with your neck.

How to Perform

1. Fit the neck harness over your head and attach a light plate to the chain.
2. Stand or sit bent slightly forward with your hands on your thighs for support.
3. Let your head drop forward under control, then raise it back up by extending your neck.
4. Move through a full, comfortable range, pausing at the top.
5. Lower slowly; do not let the plate yank your head down.

Tips

• Start with the lightest plate and add weight very gradually over weeks.
• Keep every rep slow and controlled; the neck is not a muscle to ego-lift.
• Stop at once if you feel pain, tingling or dizziness.
