Many people do not realize that the face has a good deal of muscles, and a few nifty exercises can help accommodate those muscles and bring them to the tone of a really outstanding facial expression. A double chin can be thought of as a muscular inequality in regards to the rest of your face, therefore there exists a few good exercises that can help remove it. Like any exercise regimen, it is not something that will happen overnight. No. It is something that you will have to work on for a bit of time.

Dozens of exercises claim to work at reducing your double chin. Here we will explain the two most effective things you can do, with a third focus on the importance of proper breathing during the practice of these exercises. Think of the satisfaction of improving your facial looks through reducing or removing your unsightly double chin. Hard work? Yes, but it is the right way to get your face into the right condition. Here is how to get started.

Let’s start with sitting erect in a chair with a slight backward tilt to the head. Now squeeze your lips together, and thrust your jaw out while strongly pulling with your fingers on the loose skin at the base of your neck below your Adam’s Apple. Hold this for a count of four, relax for the same count and repeat.

While the previous exercise is convenient to do anytime you are seated. However, the second exercise requires you to lie on your back on the floor. Press your chin against your chest by lifting the back of your head off the floor. Hold this position for a few seconds, and carefully relax by lowering your head. You should plan to repeat this motion a handful of times for each exercise session.

If possible, plan to exercise a few times each waking hour of the day, every day, in a systematic way. No important goal can be reached without application and dedication. You will not get concrete results unless you are fully engaged in doing these strength and tone building exercises targeted at removing your unpleasant double chin.

And now for the final part of this discussion on improving facial muscle tone. As with any other exercise regimen, there are a few breathing steps that should be remembered for best results. Don’t think that breathing is not something to be overly concerned about just because exercises regarding the face are minimal compared to other exercises. That is not the case at all, so it is best to remember that your breathing and your exercise motion rhythm should be in sync. If you follow all these steps, you can safely say goodbye to that annoying double chin.
