Conditioning Exercises for Combat Sports : Neck Exercises for Combat Sports

[afa16]

Mike tyson used to do this all the time

[FzOwner]

Haha, I can hear his neck popping at the end.

[ChrisbCrusty]

yeah not sure i want to try that. all it takes is one snap crackle. maybe its better to NOT start with this until you neck muscles are built up..

[MsTigerseye77]

Oh that scares me so bad! Please be careful!

[SplinterProd]

This guy kinda reminds me of Tao pai pai

[FuntossisBACK]

REY MYSTERIO! is that you??? :O

[2431346]

His name is jesus.

[TheWordChaos]

I got here from Street Fighter 4...

''behold the glory it's the Tanden Engine''............

[ForceAir14]

@expertvillage I dont want to break ma neck dude.

[simonim]

its safe if you minus the repetitions

[ButterfingerBB]

Armor King

[ddf0dr1v3r2]

I practice Greco-Roman Wrestlings or Olympic Wrestlings ... I started doing Neck Bridges since 8 years age ... at the beginning I remember that I was doing this exercises ... relatively medium hard ... but Not Only I do this exercise ... I think that You Need A Little Time To Get Used With It

I Don't Say that it is a Very Easy Exercise ... maybe My Neck is Stronger Than Others because is Bigger ... but Not Every Time "Big = Strong"

[Dgkman2004]

I do this every day at wrestling. It ain't 2 bad til the next day

[CJstylez]

Can you do backflips with your head like the Shaolin Monks?

[Dida224]

ouch...

[CoffeeBeatsTea]

@dro305 yeah it does. Look at Tyson's neck. These exercises are done so your neck is strengthened and this allows you to take a punch to the head without your head snapping back

[frrface]

armor king does that in tekken :D

[garnichtgut]

@frrface

ahhh, now i know why it looked familiar :D

[HeadinNorthe]

thank you, i broke my neck.

[TheXenogias]

i love how all the comments have something to do with the actual exercise but the top most rated comment has absolutely NOTHING to do with it hahaha.

[5tarry3y3d]

Well I just lost my appatite......Zyzz would be dissapointed.

[NeatGentleman]

TANTEN TYPHOON

[TheGrizzzle]

I just get in that posttion and hold for as long as I can. I don't move my neck up and down though seems a bit risky

[WorkoutBoss]

Nice vid! Very useful & functional stuff!

[djaywesley42o]

how many times in a week should i do this??

[sergeant07]

sick neck bridge

[dude94ize]

thats a great exercise if you want to be like a turtle with short neck

[RedHo0d]

What did he say his name was?

[therightsouce]

ummmmmm wow nuff said

[ScottyandFriends]

I didnt know Armor King was a real person?

[sanjiii1]

[lordzz00]

THAT shit is serious.



[nicoMaywaether]

ok

[KaelinSaint]

@JEANBRUCE1991

Grapple much?

[SlyMcNulty]

@JEANBRUCE1991 Is this based on evidence, your own experience- or is this guesswork? I've heard that people with back troubles (weak back etc) have done back bridging to recover from them. Ive been thinking of starting myself- do you actually have evidence that this is unsafe?

[blackraider777]

@JEANBRUCE1991 sure safest thing to do is to not train at all, no injuries then

just stay on your couch

[sergeant07]

@JEANBRUCE1991 DUDE go hard or go Home

[sergeant07]

@JEANBRUCE1991  sound's GAY not worth to waste my time on you

[SkwerlBergamot]

@JEANBRUCE1991

take a punch to the face from a experienced boxer

[AgeOfRaposa]

@JEANBRUCE1991 the mat is there for a reason, it is a completely safe move

[DMTwannaB]

@JEANBRUCE1991 this is absolutely safe. Everybody in gym does it and nobody has ever had any problems with it

[DMTwannaB]

@JEANBRUCE1991 Good question, but I don't think they would tell if they are above 40. But I guess... Some where between 5 - 10?

[silver19944]

@JEANBRUCE1991 actually it is a super safe move, boxers, kickboxers, MMA fighters etc all do it. you just need to warm up properly.

[hotstreak4life]

@JEANBRUCE1991

It is safe if you know what you are doing and you are careful. Any exercise can b unsafe id done not done properly.

[kaindrg]

@JEANBRUCE1991 this is one of the most common conditioning excercises in submission grappling if ppl worried about doing this then there wouldnt be a whole lot of grapplers would there?

[swollennutsack]

fuck the expert village...God saves BJJ...arrebenta!

[ebullock0777]

Zoro with muscles..

[Jay1Haze5]

@ebullock0777 or Zohan

[JAGUARDRUIDA]

i believe that this kind of trainig can bring serious problems to the column

[utoobe656]

@JAGUARDRUIDA

why?

[JAGUARDRUIDA]

@utoobe656 to many pression in the sensible bones of the neck , and the column is not right it is like a bow

[utoobe656]

@JAGUARDRUIDA

but still people like tyson performed it and i believe it really trains well neck muscles

[JAGUARDRUIDA]

@utoobe656 i train my neck by putting 5 kilos around my head , so i lay down and move the neck up and douwn,

sometimes i use a .... dont know the name in english,, that latex think made to measure the pressure, around the head and walk forward with it grabbed in a tree

[utoobe656]

@JAGUARDRUIDA

thx ill try it out

[JAGUARDRUIDA]

@utoobe656 np i hope u neck get bigger

[tobalcainalhambra]

@JAGUARDRUIDA i dont even know what is it's name in my language heh

[saints4life55]

[brucelee1400]

[gregm20072007]

1st time i tried 30 secs was no problem

[Ironman4321wow]

@aky19832001 How often would you do this to get a neck that big? days per week & reps/sets-

[MarciusSim]

Oh shit it's Seth's U2.

[NMWMN]

...jesus... you only get one spine... it won't repair itself... ask yourself "do i have medical insurance?

[bigli]

[MrGatz08]

On behailf of Expert Village I am Gilson Oleverdeadevearahdearvereh

[durdentylor]

25 People broke their neck

[ivanovichmerel]

Ahora ya se hacerlas no sabia como acomodarme

[thiagocruz1]

Ótimo treinamento cara, no começo foi tenso mas com poucos dias a minha resistência aumentou muito, faço tipo 3 séries de 30 repetições e a do outro vídeo tb. Já é o bastante? Agradeço se me responder! Abraço e sucesso cara!

[midnightthecat1]

hmm i used to do something like this in Karate and when i was a Cheerleader. Except to multitask we'd work on the flexibility and do the bridge the RIGHT way. Pull your feet together and try to touch your knees together at the same time. Hurts like a bitch if you've never worked on that kind of flexibility.

[jorgeaksu74]

The dislikes from this video come from pussies that can't do it... 'how many kids neck's are broken now' wow what a little bitch! I would say put your kid in ballet, but they also do this exercise

[4ibuko]

I tryed it...very usefull exercise

[Belecena]

you fucking idiots, this is a real neck exercise. i bet you all that ppl that are commenting here never tried this. fucking idiots, get out of the pc and start training (:

[tan94319]

@Belecena well MAYBE you should get off the computer and stop multitasking pornsite while watching is man do his neck breaking routine

[2Wiix]

Thanks , my nek is broken now .

[Nhordmyr]

You gotta be kidding me putting this up on youtube. How many kids are now handycapped??

[malsahth]

@Nhordmyr I was fine when I did these as a kid...

[TheRolex90]

gracias men

[sylontuk]

well ive just tried it and it was fine kinda hurt my head a little bit though and my neck and torso felt a bit shaky , can feel how this one will build up neck muscles but I'll do it on a mat or thick carpet next time

[malsahth]

@sylontuk What he didn't tell you is that you should use a towel or cushion to do this. He's doing it on that grappling mat stuff lol

[aaroach95]

That's easy sauce.

[BlueSkyNoise]

yeah this is pretty cool, but not something i plan on trying

[Abujohar123]

I broke my neck

[rymeandreason]

THATS NOT THE WAY TO DEVELOP YOUR NECK FOLKS - IF YOU WANT RINGING EARS IN YOUR OLD AGE , FORGET THIS ONE USE A HEADSTRAP , AND ATTACH IT TO A CABBLE MACHINE , DO FRONT BACK AND IF YOU ARE REALLY CRAZY SIDES

YOU THINK YOU;RE A TOUGH GUY , LETS SEE HOW YOU LOOK TWENTY YEARS DOMN THE ROAD , GET SMART - DISK TROUBLE IN THE NECK WILL SEND YOU TO THE SHOWERS REAL FAST ,

[mf6796]

is your neck cracking it sounded like it

[shade6787]

@mf6796 it's clearly the beads he's wearing

[ircrazykid]

then you sustain..... as he sits there like this is the easiest lift in the world lol dont get me wrong its not stupid hard but it hurts ur neck if ur just starting out till u start to devolope ur neck muscles

[deschenes108]

this is a common wrestling exercise. u have to bridge to avoid getting pinned

[hazardroll1]

@deschenes108 thank you. you and me dont even think of this thing as anything but stretching. these are some pretty wimpy ppl on here commenting, like the top comments lol. man up ppl

[BrewP601]

this is how i get into my no head stands :)

[FedorCroCop44]

@machacoification shut up moolie

[nanatzu]

@machacoification implying that you have a girlfriend

[machacoification]

@nanatzu ok I know who you are, even though i don't approve it, as your mother really insists, you can now call me Dad, she also said that she gave you few bj when you were younger, but as she said you were happier when sattisfying uncle john with your BJ

[Draalnexa]

@machacoification

LOL - legendary comment.

People say youtube community has gone to hell - I say it always has been hell, but now days I keep reading more and more comments like this. It makes youtube worth watching. :)

[TheSUBGAMER]

@Draalnexa what comennt was that?

[Draalnexa]

@TheSUBGAMER

the top comment

[TheSUBGAMER]

@Draalnexa that aint funny

[Draalnexa]

@TheSUBGAMER

depends how you look at it ;)

[olokiit]

can you break your neck if u do something wrong ?

[NPking911]

@olokiit nahh you wont break your neck. you could pinch a nerve if your not careful though, so make sure you have someone helping you

[BakaYaru13]

I coach a team of 8-12 year olds in judo and they can stay bridged pretty much indefinitely. Small children can do this. Seriously. It isn't dangerous. It isn't difficult. I don't see why it's causing so much discourse.

[aky19832001]

I love this particular exercise. my neck in several years hit close to 20 inches. I actually had to stop cause it looked unbalanced with my body.

[SkwerlBergamot]

i do this too

because i'm a badass too

[12343alex]

eugh you can here his neck clicking...

[Growler35]

Good form. Do this for a minute every day and you will never experience back problems.

[jaidee76]

@Growler35 Thats right, a good way to cure back pain because you will break your neck and never feel your body again.

[SkwerlBergamot]

grow up children, this is what you do to be a fighter, not a chronic masturbater that spends hours on 4 chan with no exercise, this is about being serious shit

[amace85]

@SkwerlBergamot that is the stupidest shit I have ever seen or ever heard of. I think we know who the chronic masturbater is. Probably a pussy fighter at that. I'd take em anytime.

[SkwerlBergamot]

@amace85

the point of this is to strenghten your neck muscles, ie to be better at taking shots to the head, to keep your brain from rattling etc. etc.

mike tyson did the same thing

[amace85]

@SkwerlBergamot

I take back my previous comment, and appologize for coming off rude. I can understand how that would work. After thinking about it, it makes since and I see your point. Good vids

[SkwerlBergamot]

@amace85

yea, in all fairness, my first comment was very obnoxious, i got tired of seeing people comment with a lack of intelligence so i jumped on the bandwagon

[wwiwwe]

Im Chosen De Balgara Lagara?

[dnj86]

That's good for your neck in the beginning, but it levels off. It will get too easy.

Holding it longer is just endurance type stuff, I feel it more in the glutes than neck.

[skinnybuddhaboy]

A strong neck acts as a good shock absorber. It means you will be able to absorb blows to the head and chin better. Y our brain won't rattle as much so you won't get wobbled so easy. Tis true, ask Jesus or B.A.Baracus!

[kopitayable]

eewwww!

[didyouseethatshit777]

there is no way i can get that posture correct without a personal trainer

[jonny86121]

do you have to be on ur toes?

[63legendary]

@jonny86121 No but it adds to the effectiveness and makes you less likely to fall...

[Prjnce]

only do this if you are strong enough from using steroids

[giugnhgbvinierngvb89]

@Prjnce bullshit. i do it. all boxers do and even light weights

[foreverxX1000]

guys he said if ur strong enough so stop being a lil pussy u cant do it cause u aint strong enough this goes to all the biches who are complaining that this will kill you

[idiotzrule]

Same thing Mike Tyson did.

[YouKnowThatYouDont]

fuck that shit

[Tommodudey]

what the fuck!

[UFOENGINE]

yo gonna hold this position until you break yo neck :D

[simpsda]

all these little youtube pussies think that you will die from this lol

[ScottyandFriends]

armor king does this in his sleep : tekken 6

[Carmines757]

You'll only kill yourself by doing this if you have zero strength...

[MrLadyfeet]

Cool video

[TeamDept]

Wrestlers hold the weight of there partner on there chest while doing these

[djgamer2012]

im 240 pounds and i still can do this for wrestling

[Pinkpapi]

Doesn't King do this in Tekken, before a match?>? :)))

[BlackSheep3y]

Hey, I do this for Judo, every mornin'

[Rising4ChaosXxX]

Thats easy. :)

[loaskokdop]

[GzARz]

[Beenie0085]

1000 ways to die?? 1 way to win!! ask iron mike

[jerseyman1000]

Mike Tyson used to do this in his prime.

[longswordMHFU97]

[semajsga]

DR.ZEUSS

[samanmm]

what are you people talking about? all wrestlers greco/freestyle do these exercises at least 2-3 times a week and he did not show the part where you flip over. We did these in wrestling when we were 14 years old up to my early 20s and my neck is just fine

[Fjerid]

[mrandrias]
