Finally it is important to understand the part which breathing plays in this exercise system. Plan to commit to your goal of removing your disagreeable double chin. It is hard work, but very satisfying to improve the tone of your face. Let us see exactly how.
The first exercise can be done anywhere or anytime you are seated. Tilt your head slightly backward. Pull comfortably but strongly on the loose skin above your collarbone at the base of your neck. Meanwhile, thrust your jaw out and press your lips firmly together. Hold this posture for a few seconds and then let it go. Relax for a few beats, and repeat the procedure.
The second exercise requires that you lie on the floor, or other hard horizontal supporting surface. Lift your head off the floor and squeeze the point of your chin against your chest for a few seconds. Lower your head, relax, and then repeat the technique half a dozen times.
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.
Breathing is often overlooked in practicing exercises of any kind. Without properly timing your breathing to the pattern of your double chin exercises, you will not get efficient results. Work diligently, and with your goal in mind at all times, and your unsightly double chin will fade away.
