Exercises for the neck against osteochondrosis
Many people who are addicted to bodybuilding, doingemphasis on pumping the press, chest muscles, back and hands, forget about strengthening other parts of the body. For example, not all of them perform exercises for the neck. And the neck is an important part of the body. In fact, it is the connecting link between the head and body, and therefore problems with the neck can respond in the whole body to undesirable consequences. In addition, the higher the vertebrae in the spine, the more unpleasant their wrong position - in some cases, up to paralysis. Strengthening the muscles of the neck directly and indirectly strengthens the entire body precisely for this reason. As an example of an irresponsible attitude to such an important part of the body, osteochondrosis can be cited - a consequence of both salt deposition and curvature. "Acquisition" of scoliosis is a long process, and strengthening of the neck muscles is often no less than a long process. Trying to turn his head, the patient experiences very unpleasant sensations, and often, to look at something from the side, one has to turn not his head, but in fact - to move his shoulders sideways. And all this is the result of an unnatural, sedentary lifestyle and malnutrition, in which salt and other condiments play a huge role.
Exercise for the neck from osteochondrosis: lie down on your side on the bench and hang your head down so that it seems to hang, but bend it even lower, so that it touches the bench. Then lift it as far as possible. Repeat this four or five times. The crunch that you hear when doing neck exercises is not a reason to stop - on the contrary, it shows that the vertebrae become in place and the salt accumulated in them is gradually coming down. Feel the heat in the neck - then the exercise began to bring its result. It is worth doing this exercise daily.
Bring your hands behind your head, holding the hands in the lock. Head tilt back, but keep your hands behind your head tightly, as if you are hindering your head with your arms. Overcome the resistance of your hands, tilt your head back. A feature of this exercise for the neck is self-resistance and strengthening of different cervical divisions. Tilting back through the resistance, tilt your head forward, so much so that your chin touches your chest. Repeat this seven times.
And again, the neck exercise for self-resistance. Put your palms to your cheeks, tightly holding your head between your hands, and turn your head to the left and to the right, while overcoming the resistance of the strained palms. It also tightens the muscles of your neck.

Strengthening the muscles of the neck is needed not only to,to prevent various curvatures. When you tighten the neck muscles, training them, you can remove wrinkles from the skin and smooth wrinkles.
