Sure at a younger age, the goals and repair work isn’t going to be the same goals in place as someone in their middle years or even later years but the trouble is that people all start from different places, with different goals etc and so there is a lot of learning that’s involved and obviously the results aren’t always immediate. But a side note though is that when I have taught clients, they always get to a level where they are happy with their results and just want to maintain, and they can quite easily back off to working out only a few times a week.

However, I have to say that even twenties and thirty years that I have taught, I always recommend them to start out with daily exercises and to exercise everything (say 5 times a week with a two day rest period) simply because they are wanting to achieve a strong foundation (no matter if they are thin) and I have been training enough people now for such a time period to be able to really know that this is the case. Sometimes people get a little over enthusiastic and start customizing things too early on which is where the issues start developing (but these can always be corrected) or doing several programs at once. For example, doing 20 reps to a count of 10 can be quite overpowering for many people and will work the muscle intensely and so as you have seen the facial muscles do respond, but for most people I teach – I never get them needing to do a 10 count or anything like 20 reps, simply as its not necessary and I figure life is already complicated enough. Also as your post above shows, I always find that spot training does create problems, not only visible ones, but also it creates a disharmony in the face and the areas that get neglected look strange in comparison with those that have been trained hard so I tend to have my young clients exercise all the muscles for that very purpose. I like to think that in doing so your working with the body, your strengthening all the muscles and as a result your build a harmonious face.

When you have that foundation level of strength and the face is all good and healthy - the rest becomes so much easier in comparison to not having that at the start. I’ve often found that people who start out doing their own thing never really get the same developments as someone who has followed the suggested routes, but of course things need to be tweaked, and sometimes people are happy doing this on their own, and sometimes they need some guidance and provided they achieve the goals they are aiming for its all good in my opinion.

Also realized that Sis quoted me here and just wanted to add that when lines are exposed, the tissue to some extent has been compromised and damaged already (which is how the line was able to form) be it sundamage, expression formed etc so the main goal where there are lines in place is to get the tissue back to optimal health using things like exercises and massage to allow the body to repair and so the lines can and will go over time, but obviously that’s a factor that some people dislike.
