There's nothing crazy, explosive about these.

You're just supposed to feel those muscles.

And trust me, if you have not done these, you start with one round of this and then wait until tomorrow because you don't want to do too much because I guarantee you're going to be sore.

Back in the day when I played football,

You didn't realize how weak your neck could get in an off season until you put the helmet on for the first time.

And just one practice with the helmet on, and you're controlling all that extra weight of the helmet dynamically, and the neck would be sore for two, three days.

We had to accommodate even to the weight of the helmet.

So with neck training, it's a long, slow process.

You just start very light.

You start fast.

submaximal, and you start building up your strength.

And then when you talk about a crunch, that's a nothing exercise for maintaining stability and control.

When you get into situations like you, where you have accidents and car accidents, you become not only just resilient, but potentially life-saving, you know, by having a stronger neck.

It's a weird thing to do in a gym too.

It just seems a little weird.

But look at

People do a lot of weird stuff in gyms.

And this is one of the weirder things, the better weird things you can do if you're going to invest some time.

Again, it doesn't take a lot.

It really doesn't take a lot to pay big dividends here because it is an area that's pretty much untrained.
