Iron Neck, Versatile Neck Exerciser, Strengthener and Trainer with Adjustable Head and Chin Strap, Portable Head Harness for Weight Lifting, Home and Gym Use

Update: been using this neck harness a long time consistently now and my neck is now muscular 20 inches!! Same size as Mike Tyson. I train neck 3 times a week with this. I attach to cable machine and do neck curls, neck extensions and neck rotations If you use this consistency you neck will get huge. Maybe next aim is 21 inch neck .

Unfortunately I needed to return this item as it's too big and didn't fit in my head.

No adjustment of the strap on the top of the head. It will go over your eyes. And it came with the instructions for the other version (alpha) that has that adjustments. This thing is £60 down the drain

Over priced for what it is

Super toll😁👍

This is a great piece of headgear (really robust, worth the money) for neck exercises, and indeed for the entire spinal column. I use the 4 rings (left, right, front, and back) to attach the headgear to my cable crossover machine and then bend to the side (or front or back depending) from a seated position (I find it works better than standing, but that's just my preference) and pull back up in the other direction. You don't need very much weight at all to make this a great exercise. Work up to 3 sets of 20 reps (10-15 minutes between sets, which goes fast when you're watching the game) at only 2.5 to 3.75 lbs (mind you, there's a little resistance in my old plate-loading cable crossovers as well, so I can't give an exact amount of the weight I'm pulling) is enough to give your neck and entire spinal column a good burn, much more so than if you just did standing side bends with a cable grip in your hand. Pulling from the neck makes all the difference, but don't overdo it because it's a sensitive area. It actually feels like I'm straightening out my spine (time will tell), as I have a slight scoliosis in my upper back which causes back and neck issues. One thing you absolutely need to do when doing the exercise in a sitting position with the cable attached to a low, ground-level height (which gives maximum range to the pull) is to guide the cable with your right hand (if you're bending down to the right and then pulling up again to the left) as you pull back up to the left so it arcs nicely as you pull, keeping the cable away from your body (otherwise the cable pulls into your body, making it uncomfortable and limiting the motion of your rep) so you end the motion of each rep with the cable/weight pulling completely sideways level with your head, rather than the pull remaining coming from down low (as it did at the start of the rep) where the cable is attached. This makes all the difference to the exercise. Anyway, this sounds a little complex but it really works, give it a go. I'd post a video if I had the tech to do that. Also, I recommend wearing a little helmet beanie underneath the headgear as it just makes it more comfortable and the headgear fits more snugly too, so it doesn't shift when doing multiple reps. I bought the Empirelion brand from Amazon for around 10 bucks or so, and it works great. Also, get a pair of leather work gloves because guiding the cable with your bare hand isn't pleasant after a few reps. Don't pull the cable with your hand, just guide it with an open palm in a nice arc throughout the motion, as you want to do the pulling with your neck and back. One small gripe, I'd prefer a slightly wider chin strap. This one does the job, but it's only 1" wide. 1 and a half inches would be better. The velcro closure on the strap could be extended as well, as only about an inch of it catches when I do up the strap, which seems to be enough, it hasn't slipped, but I'd prefer a little more contact. Perhaps on a later model.

The iron neck alpha is a much better value for your money than the more expensive iron neck halo devices. Because it has D rings on all 4 sides, you have the versatility to do side bending and rotational exercises in addition to the conventional forward and back motions. I know many people are used to using these harnesses with a weight attached to a chain hanging from the harness, but trust me us a resistance band attached to the d rings instead. It's a great way to rehab or build up the neck stability and strength without putting as much stress on the neck. I'm a personal trainer and I use this with a lot of my clients if they have chronic tightness or aches in their neck. It helps reduce pain and improve range of motion. I've even used it when I have a tension headache, and by balancing the tension between all the neck muscles instead of just the ones that attach to the base of the skull, my headache went away. I wouldn't say the harness is 100% comfortable or sturdy, but I don't know if any head harness can make that claim. At least I've never tried one that is completely comfortable and doesn't shift at all when using it. I can usually steady it while I'm using it by holding 1 or 2 of the D rings while doing my neck motions. I highly recommend this and would buy it again. I've bought 2 of them so I have one at home, and one at the gym. Anyone that wrestles, does Jiu Jitsu, boxing, muay thai, kickboxing, plays football or rugby, should have one of these. Or just anyone with a weak or sensitive neck should use it to improve their neck stability. Under the supervision of a medical or rehab professional, I'm sure it would be valuable to some people recovering from concussions or neck injuries too, if used properly.

Love this thing works so well
