In addition to shrugs, which indirectly hit the muscles at the back of the neck, all you need to work your neck at the gym or at home are your own hands and the dynamic resistance they can provide. Perform the following four movements as a minicircuit, progressing as follows: front, left side, right side, reverse. Take a one- to two-minute break, then repeat. Perform 12 to 15 reps in each direction. THE EXERCISES 1. FRONT FLEXION (front neck muscles) Sit or stand in a neutral position with your head directly over your shoulders and a slight arch in your lower back. Keeping your shoulders level, place both hands against your forehead (1a). Press backward with your hands while pressing forward with your neck muscles until your forehead is facing the floor (1b). Slowly press backward with your hands until your forehead is almost facing the ceiling and repeat. 2. LEFT LATERAL FLEXION (side neck muscles) Maintaining the seated position, place your left hand on the left side of your head (2a) and press your left ear toward your left shoulder while resisting with your neck muscles. Continue until your right ear is almost pointing at the ceiling (2b) and repeat. 3. RIGHT LATERAL FLEXION (side neck muscles) Maintaining the seated position, place your right hand on the right side of your head (3a) and press your right ear toward your right shoulder while resisting with your neck muscles. Continue until your left ear is almost pointing at the ceiling (3b) and repeat. 4. REAR FLEXION (rear neck muscles) Maintaining the seated position, place both hands on the back of your head (4a). Press forward with your hands while pressing backward with your neck muscles until your forehead is almost facing the ceiling (4b). Slowly press forward with your hands until your forehead is almost facing the ground and repeat. [ILLUSTRATIONS OMITTED] WORKOUT

What are the immediate effects of exercise on the body?
Exercise is crucial for strong muscles and bones. Muscle strength declines as you get older, but if you exercise their muscles are stronger than other peoples in their same age group. If children exercise regularly, it will lower the risk of chronic pain in the future and it also prevents back and neck pain. The more men exercise whilst they are younger the lower the risk of neck tension in the future. Women who have greater endurance strength as teenagers also have a lower risk of neck tension in the future. Although, men with greater endurance strength when they are teenagers have higher risks of knee injuries when they are older. Exercise also makes ligaments stronger around the joints and regular stretching increases the range of movement at a joint. It also makes the cartilage thicker so that the bones are less likely to jar. Although running too much can be bad for the joints in your knees and can last long term and weights can increase the damage in your joints.Bones, joints and musclesImmediate effectsMuscle contraction.Increased blood flow to muscles.Rise in muscle temperature.Effects of regular trainingIncrease of bone width and density.Muscle, tendons and ligaments get stronger.Joints are more stable.Increase of flexibility of joints.Muscles get bigger.Muscle endurance improves.
