For the last two months I have been using a product called "facial flex"which is recomended by Patrick Hession, lead player for Maynard......check out Patricks site as it has an illustration of the product.

I like the product....it gives you more strenth without getting your chops tight. The motion involved in this using this product involves streching , and that is very important.

I just found the "Facial Flex" on the QVC website for $ 29 if anybody is interested. Looks like it should work.
