Building a Mike Tyson NECK ????

[Muscle Catalyst]

The gym I train at only has a Natulis neck machine its not bad however I have used much better.

So the question becomes what is the best training gear to use to build the 21 inch neck ?????

Also how often should one train the neck.

your gym should have barbells right? shrugs shrugs and more shrugs.

upright rows are a good supplement to warm them up or finish them off

I understand you said neck. You can isolate the neck along with the traps with these exercises. You need to concentrate on the mind-muscle connection.

We are working both the neck muscles themselves and the surrounding muscles of the trapezius with shrugs. Concentrate on lifting your shoulders through your ears until it can't go any higher.

I don’t have a 20” neck but I can feel what 8and20 is talking about. When I do shrugs, I go straight up, and strait down, slow with heavy weight. I feel it on the left and right side of my neck along with my traps. You can focus enough and hit these muscles like he’s saying.

There are neck harnesses sold for neck development for fighters. Check out some boxing or MMA equipment sites (title, everlast, ringside). They will work better than shrugs for your goals.
