  • May Double Chin Challenge

    Hi! I don't know about anyone else - but I'd sure like to tone up my neck area.
    I bought a book awhile back - awesome book. I'll post the website in the next post.
    I decided to start this challenge because I've been lazy about doing this on my own and I know if I have others here it will inspire me!
    I thought we could just check in each day with an update that we did the face exercises and at the end of the month we can share how we feel and if we notice a change.
    If you have sample exercises of what you'll be doing, please post them. It just might help someone else along the way

    This is the same challenge we just finished for April but its now May!
    Who'll join me?

    As promised......

    Face exercise.....

    Correcting Flabbiness Under Chin

    Step 1Lift chin slightly upward.

    Step 2 With flat point of index and middle fingers press against indentation (hollow) formed by the two upper nodules of the larynx located at the curve from chin to neck. Do not be concerned in the beginning as to the precise location of pressure which you will discover through practice. Regard finger pressure as the resistance against the working muscles.

    Step 3 Now press your back teeth firmly together * and while maintaining this position.

    Step 4Press the tip of your tongue against the inside of lower front teeth (gum line) increasing pressure with the tip of tongue ** in 10 or more gradual and definite steps (Count to 10).

    Step 5 Hold end position of pressure for 6 seconds (count slowly to six).

    Step 6 Release muscle work for 10 gradual steps (count to 10).

    Step 7Remove finger resistance.

    Repeat 4 more times.

    ResultsNoteSuggestion
    Visible in approximately one week.

    * If resistance is kept at the right place you will feel the muscles pushing against your finger resistance.

    ** For each increase of pressure with tip of tongue you will sense a stronger push against your resistance.

    Since the pressure of the finger tips against resistance may be felt unpleasantly and also may slip, it is advisable to cushion finger tips with cotton.

              You bet Lady Hawke! Hate my double chin... or what's left of it since weight loss, which is not very tight skin where the chin used to be!
