Exercises for double chin

January 21, 2010


Double chin is nothing but some flab sitting pretty at a place that does not make you more pretty! In other words it’s a chin under the chin. The body looks for areas where it can store up those fatty deposits, and the chin unfortunately happens to be one.Double chin exercises can up to a great extent tone up those fatty deposits under your chin and make them disappear.

Here are some exercises

-         While sitting on a chair, try to maintain a steady upright stance of your head. Don’t let it sag. Keep those muscles around your chin tight, and rigid to come extent.

-         Rest your head against the top of the chair. Move your head back, such that it creates and angle with your neck. Hold on for some time. Bring it back to the original upright position. Do about fifteen repetitions.

Rotations

-         Stand up and place your hands on your hips

-         Rotate your head in the clockwise and anticlockwise direction

-         Make sure your neck muscles are held stiff during this process

-         Now after doing this, follow this up with nodding routine

-         Do up to 15 repetitions

The shouting routine

-         Open your mouth. Stick your tongue out. Stretch your open mouth and your tongue until they can go no further.

-         Shout a little to diffuse the pain.

-         Do it for about 15 seconds

-         Come back to normal

Caution: don’t do this in public…you will scare people ! (just kidding)

Head Weights

-         This can be done at the gym or in your home if you have some light-weight plates

-         Lie on your back on a flat bench, and let your head suspend freely over the edge of the bench

-         Place a towel on your forehead. Place a lightweight plate on the towel. Clasp the place with your hands.

-         Slowly dip your head backwards a little and bring it back again, while still resting the weight on your forehead.

-         Do about 15 repetitions.

No-nos

This is an excellent exercise to tighten the muscles around your chin.

-         Lie down on your back on a flat surface

-         Slowly lift your head and do a no –no with your head, without resting it on the ground.

-         A no-no with your head would be a left and right turn of your head

-         Do about 8 to 10 repetitions
