11pm, to finish off my PT for the day I do a set of 4 way neck work dynamic tension style.
Flexing the neck forward, backward, and to each side.
On days where I do dynamic tension for neck, I’ve started to implement coordinated arm motion.
For front neck and side neck this means pulling in my arms like I’m sucking in an opponent’s legs during a double leg takedown. On side neck I’m adding in body english, my entire torso is leaning in the same direction I’m working my neck. The arm on that side goes through the same motion in opposite direction of a lateral raise, this adds dynamic tension for the lats into the session. The opposite arm is just pulling back.
For back neck I play with both pushing and pulling arm motions, the other three directions solely use arm pulls.
I get on the floor and hit a set of mantra pushups.
Upon standing it’s victory pose for a moment.
Done in the bathroom, without equipment, this is eerily similar to training in a prison cell.
I suggest giving this style of training a shot, you’ll be amazed how good a workout this is.
The neck pumped up is a thing full of vitality.
Pushups are all encompassing.
Victory pose builds spiritual power.
All in a few moments in a few square feet.
Persistence & Tenacity
