Please Scroll Down to See Forums Below hey all, just wondering about how to train the neck. You dont see it mentioned much in articles and I really dont have any idea of how to properly train the neck. One reason is that I have rather large clavicles that are just now starting to get covered up (incline bench) but there is still a little groove between upper part of clavicle and where neck really starts. any advice or tips will be greatly appreciated.
Neck training?

You can always do stuff with bands or partner assisted movements.

Start on your knees, head on the floor, hands on the floor for balance.. Stretch your neck by touching each ear to the floor, or get as close as you can.
After you stretch a while, get up on your toes and do the same thing, still using your hands for balance. This will take some time to get used to, but it's GREAT for your neck.
As you get better at it, do the same thing, but inverted. Start on your back, lift your torso up so your body is supported by your feet, hands, and head, forming a "bridge". Rotate your head while using your arms for balance. As your neck gets stronger, you'll use your arms less and less for support.
Be careful with these. No jerking motions, go very easy at first. Get your neck used to it. Go from there.
