“A sturdy piece of equipment. Padding felt really comfortable while using it.”
Why it matters
One trainer, six reasons
Great for athletes
Contact sports demand a neck that can absorb impact.
Improve posture
A strong cervical spine is the foundation of standing tall.
Boost neck size
Progressive plate loading grows what bodyweight can’t.
Reduce injuries
Balanced 4-way strength protects against whiplash-type loads.
Fix stiffness
Loaded full-range movement restores mobility desk work steals.
Great for rehab
Start light and progress in small, controlled increments.
The research
“The data shows that neck strengthening has strong potential as a key concussion prevention tool.”
Sean Gregory — TIME Magazine
A Rutgers University study found that every one-pound increase in neck strength cut the odds of concussion by 5% — and researchers recommend athletes in high-risk sports like football and soccer prioritize neck training as a preventive measure.

Product overview
See how the EZ-NECK transforms your neck training in minutes.
“Having a strong neck — why is that so important? Because you want a strong spine, and it’s the upper portion of your spine. Training my neck completely changes my psychology… I just naturally stand more upright.”
Andrew Huberman — Neuroscientist, Stanford Professor

A strong neck is more aesthetic
Same person, same photo, same lighting — only the neck changed. Rated in the dating category by female raters ages 18–29, 20 votes per image.

Yes — here are the studies.
- Murlok et al. (2012) — 8 weeks of neck-specific resistance training, 3×/week: average increase of 1.1 cm (0.43″) in neck circumference.
- Mansell et al. (2005) — 16 weeks, 2×/week: average increase of 1.5 cm (0.59″).
- Harput et al. (2014) — 8 weeks, 3×/week: average increase of 1.2 cm (0.47″).
- Snarr et al. (2017) — 24 participants: maximum individual increase of 2.3 cm (0.9″).
Since the muscles in the neck are small, they can be trained with high frequency. For optimal results, we recommend training the neck 3 times a week.
While neck training is generally safe when performed correctly, there is a risk of injury if exercises are done improperly. Use correct form and consider consulting a professional.
There is 8.5 cm (3.2″) of loading space.
Weight plates are not included. Any weight plate is compatible with this device, so if you train at a gym or already own plates you’re good to go. If you don’t have any, we sell weight plates here.
Yes, the EZ-NECK™ is compatible with both standard and Olympic weight plates. For standard plates you will need to purchase the standard plate adapters, sold separately.
