are you ready to get rid of those awful wrinkles on your forehead
well stay with me and i'll show you how
hello today we're going to be talking about the forehead exercise in exercise along with me
series 2. now as you know all the exercises that we do in face aerobics are all part of an exercise
set or an exercise routine so this one is the forehead exercise of exercise along with me series
now this exercise is a whole different exercise to the first one in series one because in the first
one and all of the other exercise exercises you are lifting up but this one you are pushing down
okay and what i need you to do is do it in a way that works so you're not frowning and causing more
uh more wrinkles now we do this exercise going downwards because what i want to do is start
mixing up the muscle memory of the forehead muscle because it is such a strong muscle the frontalis
now here is dorian and dorian is showing you here the frontalis and this is where
we'll be working but also these are the two muscles that we're going to be actually holding
back and stopping them constricting them so that they do not cause the muscle to frown
but in doing so what it's going to do it's going to exercise that little muscle in a
very different way that it's used to being exercised and that is the great thing about
face aerobics because we use our muscles in the ways that they never be used okay so
with this exercise what you need to do is you need to put your fingers together
like this and i'm saying this to you because it's an easier way to make the placement so
you can get your fingers right then what we do is we place our fingers on our forehead okay
and you can see here where how i've got my fingers placed okay i'm getting a bit confused
with the camera because it's the opposite so basically you place your fingers together
you press firmly onto your frontalis and with your little fingers now these are the fingers that are
really key to this exercise you place them across the corrugators and then you just gently hold
them back so you don't stretch back anything and you do not ever stretch the skin in any sort of
exercise in any exercise program so you hot place them there firmly and you hold them back now when
you are doing this exercise instead of lifting as i said you are actually frowning and as you frown
you will feel the frontalis subtly moving and as the frown muscles or the corrugator muscles here
want to bunch up the middle part of your eyes just stop them from doing it now as you can see
it's a very gentle exercise it's very subtle exercise and they are micro movements
now the other thing you need to do is you need to do this in front of the mirror
okay it's so important that you do this in front of the mirror because sometimes what
happens is that your fingers sort of slip down a bit and they start doing this sort of thing
so you need to be very aware of where your fingers are placed as you are doing this exercise so you
can see how it's very very subtle okay and all i'm doing is holding back that muscle and what that's
doing it's actually exercising all of that muscle in this area and when those muscles are toned they
get bigger and they actually pull back the the skin and they take away the wrinkles and this is
why we're doing the exercise in this manner now the main thing to remember subtle movements
do not stretch the skin apart with your fingers just hold it back and watch yourself in the mirror
i remember one time i was doing this exercise and i thought i better just get up and you know
look myself in the mirror to see what i'm actually doing and when i was doing it i was absolutely
horrified because i was sitting there doing it like this and i couldn't understand why i was
getting more wrinkles between my eyes when i was doing this exercise and i think you'll find if you
try to do them in front of the mirror in the sense of don't do them in front of the mirror all the
time if you don't want to but check what you're doing because you might be getting bad habits
now it's really important that you understand how these exercises work and and i've got many
exercises and videos that show you how they work so if you're really serious about doing facial
exercises and wanting to look years younger when you do them go ahead and look at these exercises
and listen to them and watch the video so you get a handle on how to do them now the other thing is
