The guy with the long neck. External features of a person that characterize his type

Hello, friends. Why do you need a powerful neck? Who is more interested in this? And what are the methods to strengthen it?

The neck is responsible for many key body functions. Through it follow:

Esophagus.
Larynx.
Trachea.
Network of blood vessels supplying the brain.

Also, the cervical vertebrae and muscles guarantee better mobility to the head and keep it in balance. If they are damaged, death or disability may occur.

And it is very important to properly develop the neck muscles.

Motives for training

Each person has their own motivation for training. But the usual classification of motives is as follows:

To reduce the likelihood of injury and pain. Today, many people work in offices and spend a lot of time at the computer. And the development of the neck muscles helps them not to suffer cervical osteochondrosis. Exercise also reduces blood pressure.

When stressed, the muscles of the trapezius and neck become very tense. And thanks to strong muscles, this tension is reduced.

Representatives of all sports disciplines, especially martial ones, are simply required to have a strong neck. This provides protection against dangerous collisions and concussions.
A powerful neck in men (and women) involved in bodybuilding serves as a guarantee for them of stamina when performing basic exercises with serious weight, for example, when they squat with a barbell placed on their shoulders.
A pumped neck is a sign of good physical strength. And athletes with the most powerful necks are proof of this.

But targeted neck training is not for everyone. Since the neck is a very vulnerable area, serious stress should not be placed on it.

And some people are absolutely not allowed to do such training at all. Due to sedentary work, their cervical vertebrae are quite weak and more prone to damage.

And to gain confidence in the safety of exercise, you need to consult a doctor and do an ultrasound cervical spine and other pictures. If there are no contraindications, you can train, but do it gradually and under close supervision.

Which neck muscles can be trained?

Often people are not particularly passionate about this issue. And they practice without thinking. For training to be effective, you need to have knowledge about the location of muscle groups and how to develop them.

How to build a powerful neck even at home? Develop muscles that are intensively involved in spinal defense and head rotation:

The sternocleidomastoid muscle. Its location is the front side of the neck. Viewed from the front, it looks like a V.
Wide trapezoidal. She has two important functions: defense of the upper spine and head rotation.
Hyoid bone group. Location - right under the chin.

You need to rely on this data when choosing exercises for your intended workouts.

Training

Before strength actions, a high-quality warm-up of the cervical muscles is required. This is the acceleration of blood to the areas that will be subject to stress. And this is to protect muscles from excessive tension, stretching or spasm.

How to do a good warm-up? The following exercises are required:

The head tilts down and up, forward and backward.

The head turns to the left and right.

The head moves in a circle to the left and right.

Actions as in step 1. You just need to rest your palms on your forehead.

Grab the back of your head with your hands, tilt your head forward and back.

In all these exercises the actions are performed smoothly. No jerking or harshness. This can lead to prolapse or protrusion.

Number of repetitions, no more than 3-5 times on one side... again, if you do more, you can erase the cervical vertebrae and cause protrusion.

Five exercises are performed at each point. Each side 3-5 repetitions.

The warm-up phase requires a maximum of 5 minutes. After which it is time for strength training.

How to build a powerful neck? There are 3 types of strength training. They overcome resistance. Resistance source: trainer, own hands or the hands of an assistant. From these activities, subsequent power actions are built.

There are many exercises. But the most effective and safest for many people are the following:

First. On the posterior cervical muscles.

You need to lie on your back on a horizontal bench.
The neck should hang over the edge of this bench.
Work your muscles. You can work alone or with an assistant.

If you work with an assistant, then:

He grabs your forehead with his hands. You move progressively up and down. When the action goes down, resistance results (you end up fighting with the assistant, his task is to tilt his head, yours is to prevent this). When acting upward, relaxation is formed. Then again – struggle.

Number of approaches – 3. Reps in each: 10-20.

You may not pump up your bull's neck using this method, but you will develop its strength well. At correct actions At the end of any approach, weakness and burning are felt.

If you work with weight, then you need:

Position yourself on a horizontal bench in the same way. The neck should hang over its edge. A pancake is held in the hands.
Place the pancake on your forehead. He holds this position with his hands.
Move smoothly, under control, lower your head down. Breathe. Head up. Exhale.
Move your head along a forward vector.
You need to move extremely slowly. No sharpness.

In this lesson, the number of approaches is 3. The number of repetitions in each is at least 10, maximum 20. Your well-being also matters here.

Experts recommend practicing with an assistant. It is more comfortable and efficient, and safe work. Some people like to go it alone. In any case, it doesn't hurt to try both options. And choose the most suitable one from them.

Second. Development of the sternocleidomastoid muscles.

This exercise has analogies with the first. But you should sit on the bench with your stomach down.
The head again hangs over the extreme side of the bench. There is a pancake behind the head.
You can act alone or with an assistant. Whichever is more convenient for you.

Even intensively and constantly performing the indicated exercises, you can develop a powerful neck, like that of a bull.

What achievements are there in the world regarding neck parameters? Some have a very long neck, others have an incredibly powerful one. To do this, you need to refer to the corresponding records.

Neck. Records

First about the length. As a rule, this indicator applies to the female neck. For example, according to information from the Guinness Book, the neck of one woman from Burma is considered the leader in this parameter. She is a member of the Padong tribe.

In this tribe, a woman's neck is considered beautiful if it is long. The record holder's neck reaches 40 cm in length. Photo attached:

Of course, for the sake of such a result, the woman had to make incredible efforts. And people are often surprised how their heads are supported on such a neck.

The most inflated necks are found in bodybuilders and heavyweight fighters, especially in MMA. For example, Jeff King. His performing career began in 1979. After 4 years, he became Mr. America and Mr. Universe. In 1988, his career ended. And for a long time it was believed that he had the largest neck in the world.

However, those who have seen Bill Goldberg live decide to argue with this. It has even been suggested that he has the largest neck in girth. They say that his neck was already huge even at 15 years old.

It’s impossible not to include Mike Rigueira on this list. This is a famous powerlifter. In this discipline he reached a record of more than 900 kg. This seems to be the main reason for the impressive size of his neck. Or maybe it’s not heavy loads, but the neck itself that allows you to lift record weights.

The most powerful neck belongs to Joe Ladnier. This opinion is very relevant and logical today. This bodybuilder's neck is wider than his head.

It feels like the neck is simply missing. It's so short. His bald head comes straight from his incredible trapezius muscles.

Conclusion

It is necessary to develop the neck muscles. It's good for your health. It is not necessary to pump up your neck to incredible parameters. But she shouldn’t be weak either.

Men's fashion

Each of us has our own minor “figure” flaws. These shortcomings, one way or another, are noticeable to others and sometimes make us think seriously when composing our outfit. Often, what we buy for our wardrobe is dictated not by men’s fashion, but by the answer to the question: “will this shirt emphasize my thinness?”, “won’t this jacket make me look even fatter?” etc. Don't think that this makes us like women

Such doubts are absolutely normal

However, I have not found a single even more or less useful article on this topic for men. Only separate essays for ladies (where it is mainly discussed right choice underwear for cellulite and menstruation). Now there is something similar for us.

In the article, I will talk about the most common types of shortcomings in the male figure, what should be avoided when choosing clothes for their owners, and how to visually correctly hide these same shortcomings by adopting individual elements of clothing. Hide to ultimately bring to the fore the most important thing a man has. I'm talking about a person, and not about what you, you filthy pervert, thought!

For convenience, we will consider each option of a possible “flaw” in the male figure. If you suddenly have a non-standard figure or simply found several of the features suggested below, take note of my tips, they will be convenient to use when choosing clothes.

Option: tall

Nature has endowed some men with truly tall stature. It is sometimes very difficult to “look down” on such people; they look at them with genuine interest and are even a little afraid. If you have a lot in common with the hero of the work “Uncle Styopa” and you want to visually correct this situation somewhat, you should adhere to the following points.

Refuse:

jackets, short coats, jackets, sweaters, T-shirts, etc. are too short;
high-waisted trousers and jeans;
narrow ties;
constantly unbuttoned top of clothing;
vertical stripes in top and bottom clothing;
chunky shoes with big details;
high-lace-up shoes over trousers and jeans;
high top boots.

Take into account:

double-breasted jackets, coats and jackets;
long jackets, coats and jackets;
low-waisted trousers and jeans;
good contrast between the color of a shirt and a suit, a T-shirt and a zip-up jacket, etc.;
wide belts;
incompletely unbuttoned top of clothing.

Option: thinness

The image of an eternally hungry student or a similar tourist who has just emerged from the forest immediately appears before your eyes. Slenderness and freshness are good, but not pronounced thinness. The main emphasis here should be on visual extension and some pseudo-compression of the figure. How to do this - see below.

Refuse:

fully dark clothes tops (T-shirts, turtlenecks, tank tops);
a style of clothing that is too tight-fitting to the body;
single-breasted jackets and coats with deep necklines;
wide, but “baggy” fitting style of clothing.

Take into account:

wide style trousers;
wide lapels;
light shades of clothing;
horizontal stripes in top and bottom clothing;
wide pattern or pattern of clothing top or bottom;
layering of clothes to give a massive figure (example: shirt + jumper + coat, T-shirt + sweater + jacket, etc.);
carefully tucking or pulling up the sleeves of outerwear, where this is possible within reasonable limits (shirts, T-shirts, thin sweaters, etc.).

Option: thin neck

Sometimes it is an indispensable attribute one of the options described above.

Refuse:

V-neck of the top;
shirts with open collars;
narrow ties;
pendants and other neck accessories with an oblong-vertical shape;
“standing” hairstyle.

Take into account:

high collars;
stand-up shirts;
wide ties;
contrasting collars on clothes;
Having a beard helps;
scarf.

Option: long arms

Untidy appearance of a thin and tall figure. In most cases, it is very difficult to find a top with sleeves of suitable length, since the patterns of many companies are designed for medium-length sleeves.

Refuse:

long longitudinal stripes and narrow patterns on the sleeves of clothing;
3/4 sleeve;
shirts with long cuffs.

Take into account:

not too massive bracelets and watch straps;
gloves with high cuffs.

Also, if you have problems choosing the length of the sleeves, you can use one simple trick that I came up with relatively recently. Even if maximum length T-shirts/jackets, etc., you are still not satisfied with their “shortness”, buy additional light leather or knitted gloves (to match the desired top and match the texture), carefully roll up the sleeves (literally in one or two neat overlaps) and wear gloves. So that a small strip of skin is visible between the gloves and the rolled up sleeve. Visually, you will gain a lot, since the beginning of the tassels will not be visible and the short border of the end of the sleeve will disappear.

Option: narrow shoulders

A man's shoulders are, first of all, an indicator of the overall size of the back, behind which many women sometimes want to hide. If you are not Apollo in your shoulders and also do not have the opportunity to correct this matter with physical activity, then, so as not to dictate men's fashion, use the following tricks.

Refuse:

raglan sleeves;
vertical stripes on the top of clothing;
tight-fitting top style.

Take into account:

large horizontal pattern or “cage”;
thick knitted clothes;
narrow tie;
scarf with a large pattern or design.

Option: flat buttocks.

Is this what women often look at when choosing a partner? On shoes? Ha, forget about it, that's the last place they look. And firstly - on the buttocks. Therefore, if you do not have the shape of this part of the body that is seductive for many ladies, let’s try this.

Refuse:

short jackets and jackets;
shirts and T-shirts tucked into trousers.

Take into account:

“below the waist” style of jackets and sweaters;
straight trousers with a pattern.

Option: beer belly

Some people call such a flaw “a sign of a man’s solidity,” others “status,” but in any case, it’s better to visually cover it up somewhat.

Refuse:

tight-fitting clothing;
pleated trousers;
narrow or short ties.

Take into account:

single-breasted, slightly loose suits;
three-piece suit;
vertical pattern of clothing;
high-waisted trousers/jeans;
slightly loose overall style of clothing.

Option: excessive massiveness of the figure

Massiveness, a dense and wide figure - this certainly sounds powerful. However, not everyone and may not always like this option. Therefore, if you want to somewhat hide this point, pay attention to the following points.

Refuse:

sharp contrast color range all clothes;
wide horizontal stripes at the top and bottom of clothing;
wide pattern or pattern on the top and bottom of clothing;
double-breasted suits, coats, jackets;
narrow or short ties;
excessive “layering” of clothing;
wide lapels;
clothing colors that are too light;
tucking or pulling up the sleeves of outer clothing, where this is possible within reasonable limits (shirts, T-shirts, thin sweaters, etc.);
excessively holding hands in pockets in a static posture;
excessive tucking of outerwear sleeves.

Take into account:

color monogamy in clothing options;

darker shades of clothing;

vertical stripes of clothing;

smooth, lightweight fabrics without dense texture;

single-breasted jackets and coats.

Option: short height

Not everyone can play on a basketball team and take things off the closet without a chair. However, who said that this is so important? And for short stature there are rules.

Refuse:

wide belts and the overall emphasis of the belt against the background of the entire outfit;
strong contrast in color combinations;
double-breasted jackets and coats;
wide trousers and jeans.

Take into account:

vertical pattern and stripe top/bottom of clothing;
single-breasted jackets and coats;
long jackets and jackets;
high-waisted trousers/jeans.

Option: thick short neck

In most cases, it complements the overall massiveness of the figure. What can be done?

Refuse:

neckerchiefs;
wide ties;
shirts buttoned under the neck;
voluminous collars;
scarf.

Take into account:

V-neck
narrow ties;
regular and clean shaving.

Option: double chin

Quite a frequent companion of a thick and short neck. It’s quite difficult to eliminate visually, but still.

Refuse:

collars with snap-on corners;
turtlenecks and voluminous neckline.

Take into account:

stiff shirt collar;
clean shave.

Option: wide shoulders

The most pleasant of all male “flaws” of the figure for the eyes of the fair sex. However, pleasant within reasonable limits. If in general structure Figures with such shoulders have sharp disproportions, then visually this can be corrected as follows.

Refuse:

large horizontal pattern of the top of clothing or a large “cage”;
things that are massive and dense in texture.

Take into account:

raglan sleeves;
vertical stripes on the top of clothing.

Option: wide hips

They are pleasing to the eye if the owner is a woman and quite the opposite if the owner is a man. But don’t despair, this “shortcoming” can also be partially eliminated.

Refuse:

light-colored trousers;
checkered pattern.

Take into account:

dark color of trousers;
vertical pattern on trousers;
the style of sweaters, jackets and jackets reaching at least to the middle of the buttocks.

In addition, do not forget about the existence of such things as “ateliers”, where for a certain amount they can always help you with a small “adjustment” of clothes for you (only hotels are different, and a positive effect is not always possible, it depends on desired result and it’s always worth considering that sometimes remade things can look worse than the original version).

However, in my opinion, the most important thing is inner confidence in yourself and in what you are wearing, and how you “present” it all to others. And figure flaws are so...

Remember: there are no visually irremovable flaws in the figure, there is an incorrectly chosen outfit. Make clothes your ally.

What other elements appearance will help you meet girls more effectively, how to become more attractive to ALL the women around you for short time, pass on

By Fabiosa

If you think that you can understand a person only by talking to him, then you are mistaken. Physiognomy is a scientifically based thing that has long confirmed its right to exist. Size, shape, length - it all matters. Especially when we're talking about about face and figure. It is no coincidence that Chekhov's "Thick and Thin" are built on the principle of the relationship between personality and external data. So next time, take a closer look at your new acquaintance before getting closer to him...

1. Eyebrows

deita.ru

Eyebrows as a frame for the face are a very striking sign. Thus, thin eyebrows indicate the arrogance and ambition of the owner. Cruelty and rudeness are hidden in fused eyebrows, and wide eyebrows are a clear sign of sincerity and simplicity.

2. Eyes

kinomania.ru

Greedy people and envious people often have deep-set eyes. Dreamers have a wide-eyed gaze. Those with small eyes are eloquent and inquisitive, but narrow eyes indicate a potentially cruel person, a usurper.

3. Mouth

great-dance.ru

Thin lips indicate secrecy and dryness; plump lips are found in funny and courageous people. Weakness of character is often expressed in a small mouth, and if the upper lip is slightly larger than the lower, then this indicates an absolute egoist. A protruding lower lip reveals a person who is accustomed to getting everything from life. A narrow mouth is a clear sign of secrecy. Well, plump lips indicate a person’s laughter and courage.

4. Nose

efimshev.livejournal.com

Many people seriously believe that a man’s nose speaks of his “potential,” but there are also more general features. For example, a sharp and long nose speaks of severity and temper. Frivolity and capriciousness are guessed by a snub nose, but a wide nose indicates a person’s rudeness.

5. Neck

passion.ru

A long swan neck in both women and men indicates that a person is prone to worry and depression, while a short neck indicates stubbornness and clumsy perseverance. You will find authority and fearlessness in the character of people with a wide neck. But the owner of a thin neck can be considered a romantic and timid person.

6. Forehead

www.vogue.co.uk

The forehead is in every sense the outstanding part of the face. High foreheads are inherent smart people who have something to “store” in their skull. Narrow-minded people, if not deprived of intelligence, are quick-tempered, that’s for sure. Highly receding hairlines often occur in highly motivated people. And the innate honesty gene occurs in people with a square forehead.

7. Chin

men-only.ru

It’s not for nothing that they say “a strong-willed chin.” People with a strong character who achieve their goals themselves have a clearly defined and large chin. On the contrary, modest and insecure people have a small and inexpressive chin.

8. Shoulders

rus-img2.com

When communicating, be sure to pay attention to the shoulders of your interlocutor. If they are narrow, the person is clearly shy and prone to self-criticism. And broad shoulders will serve as evidence that he is extremely brave. Broad-shouldered people often inspire confidence and are able to win over people.

9. Hips

Steep-hipped people, remember, do not like to give in, and their softness of character is revealed by their smooth outlines and curves. Round shaped hips have soft and weak-willed personalities. But narrow and strong hips are a sign of strong character and endurance. By the way, slender legs “speak” of the ability to achieve what you want. Maybe because they help with this?...

In the area of the back of a person’s head, zones of human instincts are concentrated: everything dark that is hidden in us, all fears and complexes. The bumps on the back of the head carry information about events that we attract to ourselves unconsciously, spontaneously, about intuition, about connections with the Cosmos. Here are located the hillocks of murderers, suicides, disasters... Including: zone 1 - the hillock of suicides, destruction, self-destruction, if it is located on the “evil” side, or premonitions of danger, if on the “good” side; zone 2 - the hillock of physical desires, a clear shift of this hillock in men to the right speaks of tantric work; zone 3 - the hill of fear, zone 4 - the hill of disasters.

Determining character by the back of the head

Let's find out how to determine a person's character by the back of their head.

At the very base of the skull, in the lower part of the back of the head, there may be a sharp lump. In undeveloped people, it indicates increased sexuality, which can sometimes even lead them to crime. The presence of such a bump in developed people indicates magical abilities, the ability to influence other people.
If there are dents on the back of a person’s head, then this is bad, since this disrupts the connection with cosmic forces, which can crush and destroy a person. A person with such a character should not practice magic.
Strong napes in lowly developed people indicate a spontaneous manifestation of personality, a disorganized character, while in more developed people it speaks of a connection with the Cosmos, the possibility of initiation and dedication. IN Ancient Egypt many priests specifically, using special techniques, stretched the backs of their heads.
Fleshy nape in a man - intemperance in sex life. If such a man has a round forehead, a round belly, raised shoulders and wide feet, then he thinks more not about sex, but about material wealth, and loves his family.

How to determine character by neck

Now let's look at ways to determine character by the neck.

A neck 16 to 18 inches in circumference is considered large and indicates great physical capabilities, a hot-tempered and capricious character, which, if it does not lead to premature death, then this person will probably outlive his contemporaries.
If the neck is narrow at the base of the head, then life will be short.
An excessively long neck indicates simplicity of character and curiosity.
A short and small neck speaks of intelligence and deceitfulness.
A muscular neck belongs to quarrelsome people.
A neck that protrudes too much forward warns of an evil and stupid owner.
A thick, fleshy neck indicates a proud, hot-tempered character that can cause a lot of trouble.
A “square” neck, merging with the back of the head, indicates that the mind is in the same style...
A strict, straight neck corresponds to a strong, uncompromising character.
A neck slanted to the right is a sign of caution and a tendency to hoard. When the neck is shifted to the left, this indicates a defect. Such people should not be trusted with secrets.
Short neck may indicate heart disease.

Now you know the basic ways to determine character by the back of the head and neck.

Did not expect? And here it is: correctly defined eyebrows can give your face literally royal grandeur! Moderately wide, “filled”, in harmony with the color of the hair roots and the main thing is with an ideal arc angle. Go to an experienced eyebrow specialist at least once - he will choose the shape that suits you, tell you about care, and you will see how your face has been transformed!

Nose

No, we are not talking about the shape of the nose that is now plastic surgeon every second one sculpts. Your nose can be snub-nosed or “potato” - it is important that it looks harmonious on the face, corresponding to the golden ratio. Its “ideal” position is considered to be such that the distance from the eyes to the mouth is approximately 36 percent of the height of the face. And the distance between the pupils was about 46 percent of the width of the face. If nature has not rewarded you with an ideal profile, don’t worry, you can add nobility to your face with the help of competent makeup. By contacting a qualified makeup artist, in a couple of lessons you will learn how to highlight the best features of your face.

Cheekbones

A distinctive feature of a woman in whom “breed” is felt are clearly expressed, as if chiseled, cheekbones. To do this, you don’t need to lose up to forty kilograms, because everything depends on the shape of your face, and not on your weight. But even with a round face you can achieve cheekbones - For this you need to do Facebook building.

Neck

Describing beautiful women It’s not for nothing that they say that they have a “swan” neck. This is another external feature characteristic of a noble appearance. Many women dream of a long, flexible and graceful neck: some are lucky with one from birth, and What should those who didn’t get the swan’s neck do?
Three simple rules: rely on clothes with a v-neck, which will visually lengthen your neck, wean yourself from slouching and do not forget to regularly moisturize the skin of your neck with masks and creams - the skin in this area is thin and extremely susceptible to age-related changes.

Fingers

Short fingers with spade nails will not add nobility to your appearance. You want to feel the breed in you, but nature did not reward you with long thin fingers With beautiful shape nail plate? You'll have to take everything into your own hands, literally. To add grace to your fingers, forget about massive rings and focus on subtle, minimalist jewelry. It is better to grow your nails slightly and contact nail salon, so that they are given an almond shape - it will also visually lengthen your fingers.

Wrists

An integral external sign of noble appearance is refined, feminine, almost fragile wrists. You won’t be able to draw a thin bone, but even wide wrists can be visually made thinner. To do this, just start wearing a watch with a massive dial (they will make your wrist look thinner) and forget about bracelets with a thin chain and such popular red threads as decoration.

Ankles

Slender ankles, the elegance of which is effectively emphasized by ideal pumps, are one of the most seductive parts of the female body. And is characteristic feature noble feminine appearance. What to do if your ankles don't look right? Firstly, stop getting upset; secondly, remember that shoes with a thin elegant strap are vital for you around the ankle and you should avoid too wide buckles and massive parts.

Toes

Let's not remind you that feet should be well-groomed under any circumstances - this is a truism. A woman with a thoroughbred appearance is distinguished by the shape of her feet and the shape of her toes. Distinctive features: narrow neat foot, small size legs, graceful toes, thumbs are higher than the rest, nails are of the correct medical shape.
