hello and welcome to Facerobics® I'm Peta and we're going to be doing the
update to the chin exercise in exercise along with me series 5 now I really love
this exercise because I love doing chin exercises and I get really excited when
I come through the series and I get to a chin exercise in the series so this one
is no exception this is a really strong exercise it not only exercises all the
muscles in your chin but also the muscles are underneath your chin this
exercise will also help with any sagging and any bagging that you might have in
this area you know that sort of turkey gobbler neck skin thing that we have
happening this will help it it won't take it away completely because as we
know a facial exercise it's not like going in and having fillers and
injections or having a facelift basically you are exercising your face
and that's what you're doing it doesn't take wrinkles away completely it doesn't
make us look 20 again but it certainly does tone up our muscles and gives us a
strong toned face as we did when we were younger and that's what I love about
facial exercise so let's get on with this exercise so the first thing I want
to say is this is an update the exercise is not different it's just more
information for you so you can dive deeper into the exercise and the
workings of the exercise and how to do it properly and successfully yeah this
exercise works the chin so looking at the muscles of the face and this in by
the way is in the description box you can download it and it's down below you
can download it for people to use not for channels to use not for other facial
exercise hack channels but this is for people who follow my program and they
can start learning how to do the exercises by learning the muscles of the
face and it's really important that you actually learn the muscles of the face
because then it helps you to activate your mind-body connection which is I
think number three of the principles here are the principles to face aerobics
have a look at it afterwards but these are the foundations of how to do and
have a follow Facerobics® so anyway so we're going to be working the depressor
anguli oris we're going to be working the depressor
labii and we're going to be working the mentalis and also the orbicularis
oris you can see the picture here of the muscles that we're actually
working now once you get to understand those muscles of visualize those muscles
it makes for a much stronger exercise for you so we place our fingers on the
corners of our mouths we lift and squeeze the bottom lip we lift the lip
over our teeth and then we squeeze now when we do this exercise we have to use
our bottom lip we slide it over the top of our top lip and then we squeeze so
we're lifting and then we're squeezing and we're squeezing these muscles at the
bottom the mentalis the depressor muscles we're squeezing all those
muscles okay now it's going to look a little bit funny as the exercises do
sometimes you get a bit of dimpling there because that's what you get
everybody gets it I get it doesn't matter
but what we're actually endeavoring to do is strengthen these muscles here on
our chin so let's try it again
so you're lifting and as you're lifting you're starting to squeeze until you get
to the top of the squeeze and then you squeeze and hold tightly now you should
also be feeling under your neck here there feeling of those muscles moving as
well because they're all connected and we talk about the interconnectedness of
the muscles so all these muscles under here are all connected to your metallus
the depressor muscles and all the other muscles that are there so you should be
feeling these muscles underneath as well you should be feeling the platysma
should be activated as well and you can see how it's sliding over my top lip and
you can see when I squeeze my top lip puffs up a little bit no typically when
you do this exercise anything around your jaw typically it is going to pain a
bit but it's not pain that lingers it's just a slight bit of pain and if you do
get the pain if the muscle starts to fatigue while you're doing the
repetitions what this means is you're pushing it too hard so you need to back
off of pushing or putting too much effort into it or putting too much
squeeze into it so it's sort of like you're running a race so you don't start
out of the gate full-on and try to keep that you know that level up until you
get to the end you start pacing yourself so if you're feeling a bit of pain in
your jaw and it's not your actual jaw your jaw should not this part the actual
bone should not be the jaw bone should not be painful it's actually the muscles
that you might feel some pain in if you're getting jaw pain that's a whole
different story and I often talk to people about this
because if you do have problems with your jaw these exercises are very strong
and you know it can throw your door out even if you're doing it too hard if
you're pushing too hard so you know you really have to be extra
careful that if you do have jaw problems with this exercise so don't go at it
like a bat out of hell okay go at it gently and just work that
exercise gently you may have to do that right through
the levels if you're doing the exercises you've got your problems any of the
exercises any of the series that involve your door just micro movements you would
only just try to isolate the muscles and not move the drawer as well so I want
you to be very clear on that all other muscles are interconnected and you have
to do a full face routine so if you do have serious jaw problems don't even
attempt face aerobics go ahead and try the face yoga something like that
because that is not as strong and it's not as demanding as face aerobics is and
it's a very good program face yo-yo you know love it but you know of course I
created my own but I would you know recommend you go ahead and try that
rather than trying to push out repetitions with your jaw so when you
