Once again thank you Rudolph for preserving old time exercise routines. This looks quite easy perform, no special equipment, and no gimmicks. I thoroughly enjoyed your video lecture and demonstration of proper form and technique. God bless you, and your whole family Rudolph . Continue producing great video content.
I use a loading pin for ease of holding small plates on the larger one while doing neck curls-makes adding incremental weights for progressive overload much easier. Currently up to 50 lbs for 4 sets of 10-15.
We did four point neck raises on the grinder at Navy dive school. Also body weight neck ups like you are doing but not just back down like you are doing, also face down, and laying down on each side. A couple of other body weight movements, too. And massive numbers of them.
Bridging on benches and using hand pressure is how i keep mine strong. I used to use weight for hypertrophy yet I stopped years back cuz I don't wanna end up on a CPAP machine..
@@SSN515 yeah that's why a lot of doctors and coaches are switching towards doing it on a bench which changes the angle on the bones but still keeps some tension in the muscles
I love doing neck curls but find that they become very awkward to setup once you're able to use more than 1 plate... Do you have any tips or ways to work around that? Be it gym equipment I can use to load the plates etc 😅

Very good idea!
awesome video! neck curls, along with side neck raises and variations of the wrestlers bridge --> go a long way in building the neck🦬
Indeed! Great ways of building a strong neck!

Sounds like more videos!
We need some more neck routines in our workout, might save a life or two from a motorcycle accident

Navy dive school put neck bridges into the PT graveyard because they determined we risked spinal disc damage.

@@SSN515 kind of how a lot of the branches got rid of situps
@@LatimusChadimus I'll check it out. Thanks.
@@LatimusChadimus Yeah. We shifted to planks for the PFT's.

I’ve always just pinched the two plates together.
