Can a neck get too big?

[causeimight]

You read the title. You might consider this a dumb question, but I don't care. I want to find out. By "too big", I mean something maybe like unideal proportional to the skulls width or something. I don't know. Or I might be sounding like the uneducated gentlemen online who are afraid "to get accidentally too big" in the gym.



I'm uneducated in this, if you haven't noticed yet. I'm trying to incorporate neck training into my gym routine.

Too thick neck will make your head look small. Also too big neck will result in sleep apnea

What's the ratio? Head width to neck ratio, or something. Whatever it's called.

I have no clue about the ratio. You can train your neck a bit before it is a problem at all. Will probably only be a good thing to train your neck

Sorry for the double checking, but you're saying that that kind of huge neck isn't something that can "accidentally" happen, right? Like I can probably notice when my neck is thick but not thick to the point where it's like sticking out like Mike Tyson.

Yes it will not happen accidentally. You will really have to train your neck for a long time and try to grow it for it to actually become a problem. You will notice that your neck has grown and you will notice when it looks too thick.

same circumference as your arms or calves, this is obviously very relative to each person's body but its a good approximate
