Have you ever felt self-conscious about that stubborn double chin?
This troublesome area can be quite difficult to slim down. Many people don’t know the appropriate exercises to kick it into gear. After all, this is not something people normally train for at the gym.
If you want to see results, we have 5 easy exercises to show you how to get rid of a double chin.
Let’s begin.
1. Ladle
The first step is to open your mouth wide and keep yourself relaxed. Next, inwardly bend your lower lip and close your mouth.
The next step is to move your jaw forward in small, controlled movements as you keep your mouth closed. All of the movements should remain controlled so that your muscles are engaged and the workout is effective.
Repeat this exercise about 8 to 10 times.
2. Resistance
Begin this exercise by making a fist with both hands and placing them under your chin. Make sure your chin is parallel to the floor.
Then, start by moving your head down and using your fists as resistance. Your muscles will feel the resistance and begin to get stronger.
If you keep doing this exercise, your chin muscles will get stronger, and you can increase the resistance.
Every time you do this exercise, hold for 5 seconds and repeat it 10 times. Give it some time and be consistent, and you will notice an improvement in the appearance of a double chin.
3. Perfect Oval
This exercise will help you achieve a more oval and youthful look. It will also help you lift your cheeks.
Pull your teeth and jaw forward and turn your head to the right side and then to the left. You will feel the muscles stretching and your muscles working.
Add this to your combination of workouts and repeat 10 times.
4. Touch the Nose
Start by tilting your head back just a tad. This exercise is going to extend and stretch your chin muscles. You will be able to feel the extension in your muscles when you extend your neck.
The next step is to stick your neck out and try to touch your nose with your tongue. You will feel the movement if you place your finger under your chin. Repeat this exercise 10 times and take a little break.
5. Kiss the Ceiling
This exercise is self-explanatory; the aim is to tighten and stretch all the muscles in your neck and jaw.
You can perform this exercise either standing or sitting on a chair or bed. Before you start, place your arms on each side and tilt your head back a little bit.
Make sure you don’t tilt back so far that your head is parallel to the ceiling. Now that your head is in place, you can pucker your lips and kiss the ceiling.
Hold this exercise for 10 seconds and then relax. Repeat this five times.
