The Importance of Neck TrainingBy Bob Hoffman reprint from MDMProbably the most neglected area of the body among physiquemen as well as well as the general public is the neck. In contrast, though, Olympic and powerlifters generally exhibit very sturdy neck development due to the heavy involvement of the trapezius muscles in their activities. Actually, the majority of bodybuilders disregard their necks principally because this region of the body cannot be displayed like the arms or chest. Yet, in truth, the neck is never hidden, particularly in the summertime. At the same time, others shun neck work because they fear that they will become too "bullish looking" and this may detract from their shoulder width. Plus, there are those who cannot afford the financial consequences of neck exercise, namely outgrowing their current supply of shirts. While it's true that the neck is very responsive to stimulating exercise and the possibility of overdeveloping this area exists, there is no reason for ignoring it completely. In fact, not devoting at least some attention to the neck can lead to problems. First of all, strong neck muscles offer protection against serious trauma-specifically whiplash injuries-caused by auto accidents or falls. According to doctors, a large number of traffic fatalities are attributed to broken necks from impact. For this same reason, neck work is an absolute essential to anyone who participates in contact sports like ice hockey, wrestling or football. The neck muscles also help keep the upper spine in alignment. Any weakness in this area can cause the spine to curve, resulting in a "hunchback" condition. Moreover, many nerves which lead to the brain are located in this region and their operation can easily be hindered by the formation of calcium deposits. Blockages of this nature impair nerve efficiency to the point of causing severe headaches. However, neck exercises promote freer action of the nerves, thereby offering partial or complete relief from throbbing head pain. In addition, some doctors look upon the neck as a barometer of a person's health. If you doubt this contention, look around you; people with thin, scrawny necks practically always have a depleted look. Furthermore, individuals who either suffer from a prolonged illness or engage in an extended fast drop a great deal of weight and most of this loss is evident in the face and neck. Obviously, then, neck work is a necessity. Place a Bid!
