Last December I had my fit adjusted and some of the main changes we made were to shift the seat and arm pads forward, and drop the pads down. I've been on the trainer in the aerobars in the new position all winter/spring and I really like it. I find it more natural and comfortable than when I was more upright.

This week I finally got outside in this lower position and my neck is getting sore as I try to balance sighting and keeping my head tucked. I imagine the simple answer is to just keep riding outside in the aerobars and adapt, right?

Anything else I should be doing? Maybe put some spacers back under my arm pads and progressively remove them as I'm adapting? Probably raise the computer that's in front of my trainer so I'm forced to "look further down the road" while staring at TrainerRoad and whatever I'm binging on? Do people do neck strengthening or stretching?

Any thoughts on whether helmets with integrated visors (e.g. Podium, Aerohead, Cerebel) help with this? Last year I got some Smith Pivlock sunglasses because the top of the frame of my old glasses was getting in the way of sighting. Now with the Pivlocks my vision isn't blocked by a sunglass frame but I find I have to lift my head slightly so my vision isn't split by the top of the lens/gap before the helmet.

Long story short – any advice for "training" my neck?
