The beginning-level exercises appearing on this web site are designed to start you out on the road to facial fitness with a simple, stripped-down version of The Eigard Method. Think of these ten moves as the method with training wheels. By mastering them, you will be gaining the basic muscle control necessary to reap the full benefits of the advanced program. Only two appear right now - but check back often as more are being added.

All of these exercises begin with the "soft face," a relaxed, peaceful facial posture in which all tension is drained from the face. As you begin your workout, be careful to tighten only the muscles involved in the exercise you're working on. Remember that if you crease your forehead in concentration while executing a Lip Up, you're defeating the whole purpose of the program.

As with any exercise program, no pain means no gain. Always sustain the exercise until the muscles involved begin to burn. If you're wondering what this feels like, think about the last time you laughed until your face hurt. If you push yourself all the way, you'll wake up tomorrow to the first sign of true progress - a sore face.

The beginning-level exercises appearing on this web site and much more also appear in the book, "The Eigard Method" which can be purchased online.
