    The best general neck exercises are done on a Nautilus neck machine. --> http://www.nautiluscommercial.com/products/nautilu... . However, if you have no equipment you can throw a towel over your head, grab the ends with both hands, and work the specific muscles by providing your own resistance.

    Jane is right about the neck. It's a narrow conduit for all the systems traveling from the core to the head and it and the cervical (neck) vertebrae are the smallest in the spine. So, you really need to be careful and use very slow movements with good optimal form.

    Good luck and good health!!

    Consult a trainer. You have to have a specific reason to want this. Exercises for that can actually harm if done wrong. Ask an expert first.
