Does your neck naturally get thicker as we age?

I see my dad and all my uncles and older relatives seem to have thick necks and clothes fit better on them. Im already 19 and I have a thin neck...I'm wondering when I will get mine too or is it through exercise?

You ask an interesting question. I tend to think that you are correct. I used to wear a 14 inch neck sized shirt and now 25 years later I have a 17.5 inch collar. The issue also is related to body fat. I am 25 pounds heavier now. As you age and if you add fat you will increase the fat deposits around your neck. I will bet that your dad and uncles all have bigger waist sizes now than when they were your age.

Exercise will not increase the neck size. I broke my back in high school and when I went to college the only gym exercises that I was allowed were weight training exercises for my neck. It did not increase my neck size but as I got older and my waist increased in inches so did my neck.
