Do you crack your neck?

[manlymatt83]

I started doing this about 6 months ago and now I find myself doing it like every half hour. Sometimes it cracks, other times it actually hurts when it doesn't crack and I try cracking it too fast. Tonight I cracked it and it double cracked, which made a really weird feeling... I'm nervous this is bad for me, but I've googled and some places say it's fine.

So what about you? Are you a regular neck cracker?

So what about you? Are you a cracker?

White man callout thread? :hmm:

No, but I crack my back habitually, as well as my large toes. And thumbs.

 

[Crono]

I roll, not crack. Cracking sometimes makes it hurt and sore later.

 

[mcurphy]

No, I very rarely, if ever, crack my neck.

My back, on the other hand, I crack quite frequently...especially when it feels "stiff". I'll do the 'ol turn my upper body as far as I can towards 180 degrees when I am sitting and brace myself against whatever is available (usually my desk).

My chiropractor told me doing it regularly can encourage the growth of bone spurs. Since I found out I'm gluten sensitive, I don't pop my neck very much anymore. Gluten would make my muscles tighten up, pulling my neck out of line all the time.

No, and it's fucking disgusting.

Not habitually; only when I don't swallow the viagra fast enough and get a stiff neck.

 

[slightlyhuman]

yes, unfortunately it's a bad habit. i do it both ways and it will crack 2-5 times every time.

 

[PingSpike]

Yes, usually right before I'm about to kick a little ass.

Used to do it alot, but figured its probably not a healthy thing. Now I try to minimize it by catching myself when I start doing it. Rolling your neck is better.

Define rolling?

 

[TheNinja]

Only when I'm about to take a stance of dominance

You ain't a man unless you crack that neck. Congrats to making it to manhood op. I crack a shitload of bones in my body including my hip on occasion but not on purpose.

 

[AFurryReptile]

Neck, back, fingers, toes, with an almost OCD-like persistence.

I can't... not... give in... to the urge...

 

[Redfraggle]

Not usually on purpose. I may my chiro enough to do it for me. That's right, I'm such a cracker that I've outsourced my cracking!

 

[MotionMan]

I crack about everything: Neck, back, ankles, finger knuckles, toe knuckles and my bad knee.

Started when I was a pre-teen.

My knuckles are the only I crack. I've never cracked my neck... hell I'm not sure I even can.

 

[Eli]

Neck, back, fingers, toes.. lol.

 

[NikolaeVarius]

All the time. I can make them REALLY loud

 

[bobdole369]

several times daily. It gets loud and sounds to my wife like I'm breaking my own neck. She hates it. Its to the point that I can crack it just turning my head the right way.
