[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 8044541, member: 2844"]In Asia water is usually carried on the head, often stabilised by one hand. They rarely use yokes, like in Europe, but they do develop a good posture and good neck muscles. But we have to remember that some brides in some parts of Asia have hardly reached puberty. Western girls used to carry yokes, just like Bulgarian and other European girls, but yokes train the shoulder and back muscles rather than the neck muscles. At least if you carry it the right way, the way yokes are carried in the West (see pic below).;) Carrying yokes only trains neck muscles if you bend over and balance the yoke on your neck rather than carry it on your shoulders, like you should.:confused: Frankly I can't see anyone doing that for long. Western girls do often train their posture (and neck muscles) with books on their head. I can recommend it for Bulgarian girls who are only used to yokes on their shoulders.:playful::hilarious: And how is this for Western girls carrying yokes, an archetypal image of a Dutch girl: [ATTACH=full]425091[/ATTACH] Btw, I would love to see Iva wear this for a few days, like Yemenite Jewish brides did, and this type of weight is exactly what I meant before :D: [ATTACH=full]425093[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
