They're exercises slash stretches that if you do these on a routine basis, you're going to see massive improvement. Here's a problem. As we age, gravity pulls down our tissues
and there's certain parts of our body that we develop a lot more loose skin, especially underneath the neck through here. People don't exercise this part of the body at all. You have a couple layers of fascia in your neck. You have one just underneath the skin and then you also have one on top of your muscles. So there's a superficial and a deep layer. And the cool thing about fascia, which is connected tissue, it has contract out tissue. It's not some extra tissue that is going to be permanently sagging, but you have to activate it. The muscles and fascia through this area are responsible for flexion. Okay, so the head going forward, okay? As well as the chin coming down as when you open your mouth. And also taking the bottom of the mouth and then bringing it downward. That's going to affect this muscle right here and there's really only four exercises you need to do. And so just do these yourself, along with the person that's doing these exercises. All right, the first one's going to activate the muscles and fascia that pull the bottom part
of your jaw downward. You're going to be opening your mouth just like the person that's actually doing this exercise right now. So go ahead and follow along as you do this 10 times. So you're basically going to drop the lower jaw and open your mouth as much as possible. This is creating tension and tone underneath your chin. Again, it's probably been years since you activated this muscle and it's a very neglected area of the body. What's going to happen over time as you do these exercises, it's going to start to tighten the loose skin's going to go away and you're going to have a nice firmness underneath your chin. Okay, so now let's go to the second exercise. With this exercise, you probably don't want to do it in public. You're going to be basically taking the outer part of your mouth, the corners of your mouth and bringing it outward and downward. Okay, and so this facial expression, this frown is going to activate slightly different muscles
underneath your chin. This is going to activate more of the superficial fascia just underneath the skin and it's going to focus more on the fascia right here versus lower in your neck. Okay, let's go to the third exercise. Okay, for this one, you're going to tilt your head all the way back. Okay, and then you're going to jot your jaw forward or upward as much as you can. Okay, and you're going to do that back and forth. Follow along as this is demonstrated in the video. So we're completely extending the neck. Okay, we're stretching all the fascia out. We're also elongating the muscles. Then we're going to take it one step further and activate that last maneuver where we're pushing our jaw forward and getting that last very important stretch. You have to realize that all this fascia is attached not just to your chin, but it wraps over underneath the bottom part of your lip and to your face.
So that's something very interesting about fascia. It covers a broad base area. And this is why we have to take all this slack out and then create as much motion as we can to create this elongation. Okay, so we're at the last one now. You're going to be lying on your bed with your head extended over the bed. Now, what this is going to do is kind of activate the flexion or the deeper muscles of the neck. But actually, we're trying to activate the deeper fascia right superficially and top of those muscles. To do that, we have to create a flexion. So we've already done the extension with the head back. Now we're going to activate the muscles going forward. So this is going to work this tissue and really put more blood supply into it and create more contraction and toning of the deeper fascia. So go ahead and follow along as we do this exercise.
Now, some people will be very surprised when they do this, how weak their neck is. You just don't work this area of the body very often. So of course, if you don't use it, you lose it, right? So all we're doing is we're putting attention on this missing piece of the puzzle, which is the stretching and the strengthening and the tightening of this fascia. And after you do this for a period of time, please comment down below and share with us the success that you had. On any journey using Uber, it helps to know you're getting into the right car.
