Wok on these execises just past the point of ease and slightly into discomfot ithout ove-exetion. PRELIMINARY CONSIDERATIONS Maintain a pope and consistent oal shape fo maximizing the benefits of these execises. Duing the inhale/exhale, the inside of the mouth should feel like a big yan The back of the thoat is to emain open and unobstucted Monitoing each beath ensues coect execution.
