What do you think of jaw exercises?

I see mixed views here. Some say it works, others say it’s cope.

surely training your masseters makes them bigger like any other muscle, right?

i chew on these for 15 mins a day:

Huh? What do you mean? Is it dangerous? It’s just training a muscle.

If you train the muscle too much it can induce TMJ as the muscle can’t cope to extended jaw exercises in a short amount of time. Plus massater hypertrophy ends up making you look bloated if you don’t have developed facial bones (mostly cheekbones) to compensate for the bigger muscles.
