Poor posture is the primary cause of these aches and \r\n      pains, which can become embarrassing and disrupt an athlete's training \r\n      programme. However, there are habits to adopt to avoid these \r\n      discomforts. Find out in this article the main cause of neck pain and \r\n      how to avoid it.\r\n    <\/p>\r\n    <h2>\r\n      The position of the head is the main cause of neck pain\r\n    <\/h2>\r\n    <p>\r\n      The greatest evil of all is ignorance. There are many bad habits that \r\n      are part of the daily life of sportsmen and women, especially during \r\n      training sessions. One of the most neglected aspects is the position of \r\n      the head during physical exercise. This bad posture can cause neck pain.\r\n    <\/p>\r\n    <p>\r\n      During specific exercises, the strong inclination of the head towards \r\n      the ground or backwards leads to a bad <strong>curvature of the spine. <\/strong>Hence \r\n      the birth of <em>cervical pain. <\/em>Fortunately, since the source of the \r\n      pain is known, a light application can prevent it.\r\n    <\/p>\r\n    <h2>\r\n      How to prevent neck pain?\r\n    <\/h2>\r\n    <p>\r\n      To prevent neck pain, the sportsman must pay attention to his back \r\n      posture during his training sessions. A <strong>good positioning during the \r\n      exercises<\/strong>, is appreciated according to several factors. The arch of \r\n      your back must be slight with a delicate rounding of the middle of the \r\n      back. The neck should always be straight to maintain a forward gaze \r\n      during strength training exercises.\r\n    <\/p>\r\n    <p>\r\n      By following these tips, you will avoid excessive arching and thus \r\n      reduce the risk of neck pain. This is why it is important to take care \r\n      of this during common exercises such as:\r\n    <\/p>\r\n    <ul>\r\n      <li>\r\n        Push-ups;\r\n      <\/li>\r\n      <li>\r\n        Bust lifts;\r\n      <\/li>\r\n      <li>\r\n        Sit-ups;\r\n      <\/li>\r\n      <li>\r\n        Deadlift, etc.\r\n      <\/li>\r\n    <\/ul>\r\n    <p>\r\n      It is therefore important for every athlete to pay attention to the \r\n      correct positioning and posture during training sessions. Poor \r\n      positioning can lead to unwanted neck pain.\r\n    <\/p>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Neck pain&nbsp;is not an uncommon occurrence in athletes, especially weight trainers.
