Hello beautiful girls,
How are you all? I took a long break from writing articles for IMBB. My final semester was too hectic and I would not get much time to think about writing helpful articles for you all; now it is over and I am planning to take a six-month long break before enrolling for a PhD course. I am planning to do a lot in these six months and writing for IMBB will be one of them. So, I am starting off with this post!
I think all women are obsessed about slimming exercises! There are exercises for getting slimmer waist, thighs, arms and butts. But we often tend to ignore our neck. Yes, our neck also accumulates fat, primarily because of the endless junk food that we keep eating. Hormonal imbalance, medicinal treatments are also responsible for this fat accumulation.
If you want your face to look perfect, you should also concentrate on having a well-toned, slim neck. Apart from eating healthy, here are five exercises that you all must try to see effective result.
1. Chin to chest neck stretch:
• Sit on the floor, with your legs stretched.
• Now place your hand behind your neck.
• Push your neck in a way that your chin touches your chest.
• Hold in this position for 30 seconds.
• Release slowly.
• Repeat the exercise after resting for 15 seconds.
2. Tongue push ups:
This sounds a little crazy right? Just like normal push up exercises give you a stronger and toned body, this push up exercise gives you a well-toned, firm neck.
• Lift your chin as high as possible and look at the ceiling!
• Press your tongue up against the roof of your mouth.
• Hold in this position for 30 seconds
• Release slowly.
3. Side neck stretch and neck twist:
Side neck stretch – This exercise has two versions. While the first one is comparatively easy, the second one will be a little more stressful. You can start with the easier version and then move on to the second one.
Easy method –
• Sit on a chair. Keep your shoulder and hands firm.
• Now tilt your head to the side, trying to make a contact between your left ear and left shoulder.
• Hold in this position for 10 seconds.
• Release slowly.
• Repeat the same for the other side too.
Not-so-easy method –
• Sit on the floor, with legs crossed.
• Place left hand on the floor, a foot away from your hip.
• Now wrap your right hand over your head to touch the ear in the left.
• Gently push the head with your hand, so that it gets tilted towards the right.
• Use your left hand to hold the left shoulder down and away from your head. But if you find it a little painful, you can leave this step.
• Hold in this position for 10 seconds and release slowly.
• Repeat the same exercise foe the other side too.
Neck Twist-
• Sit on a chair, keep your shoulder firm.
• Turn your head toward the right, as far as possible. Try to look at the wall behind your back.
• Hold in this position for 10 seconds.
• Release slowly.
• Now repeat for the left side.
4. Isometric neck exercise:
• Stand straight.
• Place your hands on your forehead and try to push your head back.
• At the same time, try to resist this motion. This resistance will be automatically provided by your neck-muscles.
• Do the same, placing your hand at the back of your head.
• You can also practice it by keeping one hand at the side of your head at a time.
5. Plate neck resistance-
This is a super effective exercise. But you should practice this at a gym, under the guidance of some instructors.
Lying face up-
• Lie face up on a flat bench, keeping your whole body straight and with your traps, neck and head off the bench.
• Place a weight plate on your forehead.
• Lower your head, along with the weight while breathing in.
• Slowing come back to the starting position, breathing out.
Lying face down-
• Lie face down on a flat bench, keeping your whole body straight and with the upper chest, neck and head off the bench.
• Place a weight plate on the back of your head.
• Lower your head, along with the weight while breathing in.
• Slowing come back to the starting position, breathing out.
Add these exercises to your daily exercise routine and you will get well-contoured, slim and toned neck within a month!
