Puffy Cheek Exercise
Alright, so now we're going to move on to the puffy cheek exercise.
With this exercise, we really want to make sure that:
- All the air is moving through our lips.
- We don't want to redirect any of the air through the nose.
Focus on the following:
- Keep the airflow through the mouth and through the lips.
- Puff your cheeks out the entire time.
If you ever notice that they deflate, that's a really good indication that you've lost the necessary aspect of this exercise that will make it successful.
Let's jump in:
