Things You'll Need:
- Spending Budget
-
Step 1
Before you look at a single piece of equipment, the first thing you need to do is set a budget for how much money you can comfortably spend on your 4 Way Neck Machine. This is a serious piece of gym equipment that can range from $350 to over $2,000. Having a budget is essential.
-
Step 2
When looking over 4 Way Neck Machines that are within your budget, make the size of the machine one of your first considerations. 4 Way Neck Machines come in a variety of shapes and sizes. Think about the space you have available for the equipment and select a model that will fit the area.
-
Step 3
If the machine will fit the space you have available, move on to analyze the weights. When dealing with a 4 Way Neck Machine, it is usually better if the weights scale up in 5 pound increments, rather than 10 pounds.
-
Step 4
Inspect the metal tubing that the 4 Way Neck Machine is made out of. Look at the welds in the metal to see that everything looks sturdy.
-
Step 5
Look over the upholstery to see that everything is in a condition that suits you. Although this is only a cosmetic issue, purchasing the 4 Way Neck Machine is an investment, so you should try to make sure you have equipment that is in good condition.
-
Step 6
Sit in the machine and try some of the neck exercises with a minimum amount of weight. See that you can use the machine adequately, and that the padding keeps your head comfortable as it pushes against the weight.
