    It's probably just DOMS dude, what's the problem?
    I have been Michael's number two guy for about five years, and we make a great team. We're like one of those classic famous teams. He's like Mozart and I'm like Mozart's friend. No, I'm like Butch Cassidy and Michael is like Mozart. You try and hurt Mozart, you're gonna get a bullet in your head, courtesy of Butch Cassidy.

    The first time I strained my neck it was from bb shrugging too much weight. So try dropping the weight a bit and maybe it'll help.
    Height: 5'7"
    Body type: Not even small framed. :(

    I have the same genetics as a 14 year old girl.

    Thumbs up

    when there is too much pain concentrated in a small area of the body, your nerves will "spread out the pain" to surrounding parts.

    you'll be fine once the soreness in your traps goes away

    If your neck hurts then it sounds like you were straining it doing the shrugs. You want to use the traps for shrugs, use a lighter weight and concentrate on trying to touch your ears with your shoulders, don't tense up just pull your shoulders up with a comfortable weight.

    Once you've got the form down then start bumping the weight up.

    you need to distguish betwen sore neck and actual pain - actual pain in the neck is a bad sign, a very very bad sign.

    true - i took it as implied that the guy has muscle soreness in his neck, not joint related pain
