I want to punch my fat face

prestoncaleb

now that I'm at my goal weight...although not necessarily "toned"...I've noticed my face hasn't caught up with the rest of me :-)

I have chubby cheeks...that sag when I'm doing pushups or planks.

So I'm thinking...is there an exercise I can do to tone up the muscle underneath? I know I can't spot reduce fat...but thought if the muscle underneath was more toned it would look better.

Chewing gum doesn't seem to help :-)

has anyone had lipo on their face?

I'm no doctor, but I believe that you CAN tone the face, it's just a little more complicated because facial muscles are only connected at one end (that's why our faces sag as we age). You have to know where to position your hands and which way to contort your face in order to tone (and not stretch further). I'd assume you could find info on this online and am pretty sure there are 'how to' products on the market for facial toning.

Surgery is always an option, too.

LOL you are going to end up with wrinkles. Ever seen smoker's lines on their lips? That's caused by sucking on cigarettes. Give it time your face will catch up.

One more thing, 'toning' is a result of increasing the size of the muscle and losing fat. The facial muscles are so small that even if you can hypertrophy them then the fat will still be there.

You can exercise your face...found this by googleing it.

I don't think punching yourself in the face is the solution. But if you think it will help by all means. "knock yourself out"

Just continue to lean out and your face should continue to lean out as well.
