    Has anyone seen boxers do this?
    I've seen a few people do it, i'm looking for the brace Khan uses instead of just tieing a towel around a weight and lifting that.

    thanks

    Sounds like it.

    Personally, I prefer isometrics with a towel and strong bands for neck work, but each to there own I suppose...

    Nah, i picked you up wrong, thought it was the 100,921,000,657'th mention of Khan everytime "chin" is mentioned. ( Brit Forums having an effect on me )

    I Didnt see the OP mention Khan = I am a fud

    Anyways, i got it wrong.

    My apologies.
