Neck Gains!
The Cervical Spine is an area many people struggle with. They lack overall strength and neurological control in these areas. So here's a few additional drills to help with that.
For anyone trying to improve tissue quality and control of their Cervical Spine (Neck). You can start out doing this video 1-2x a week, and then slowly build up to 3-4x a week. I have some clients who do them every day, but we built them up gradually.
Start with the easier base at first, and start with 1-2 sets. Then see how your neck responds to that work the next 1-2 days. From there you can slowly build up the sets, and how frequently you do them per week. Then once you feel comfortable to try the other base out, do the same exact thing. Eventually you can build up the capacity to do both bases for 2-4 sets, and do-so consistently every week.
Remember to always work within your pain-free ranges of motion.
