Final chance to find out if neck training is a hoax or not - i.e., is the neck's potential severely limited by natural airway size?
i've been training once a week for 4 weeks now, and will likely continue for a few more months before assessing the results. method i'm currently using is manual resistance using a towel, which i'm using to train the back and sides of the neck. this method seems to be working well, with DOMS present for days after training. might incorporate a harness at some point.
i'm barely training the front of the neck, as i agree with kath that it likely worsens double chin (for those with recessed faces). i have other reasons for believing that the front of the neck isn't nearly as important which i won't get into here.
i have also resumed training traps, after taking a break which has lasted a few years (in my experience, having overdeveloped/unbalanced trap development causes pain when standing for prolonged periods).
