When you experience neck pain, what is the first thing you think to do? While I can’t speak for everyone, the first intervention strategy is typically resting or stretching. There’s nothing wrong with this, but I want to encourage you to take things a step further by isolating your stiff, painful tissues through resistance exercise. Not only can this extra effort expedite recovery, but it’s also the gold standard for preventing further pain and complications in the future.

In the next few minutes, I’m going to break down three simple strength exercises you can do to bulletproof your neck for good. Whether you’re struggling with pain or not, I highly recommend incorporating these exercises into your weekly routine as the sooner you get on this type of work the better! On that note, let’s jump right into it.
