I've measure it a few times to make sure i wasn't doing it wrong. seems correct. yet my waist and hips have gone down in size... i do kettle bell training sometimes...
is that normal to gain size in your neck with muscle/weight training?

    1/20 of an inch or 1/2 an inch? If it is 1/20 I wouldn't be concerned at all. My guess is either way it's probably just the measuring tape being in a slightly different place. My neck has lost almost nothing yet. I don't think it's a place that gains or loses as fast as others may.

    Yup, this is pretty normal if you do strength training.

    that's good to know. I didn't think i'd be losing major inches just thought maybe it would stay the same or get smaller not get bigger. lol

    This last year I gained about 3.5 inches on my neck.
