Losing "Head Fat?" And Building Extra Muscle?

[Juno1]

Hello, I'm new to these forums. I hope I'm welcome here. ^^

Anyway, I have a question about excess head skin and fat and building extra muscle without the use of weight training. I've always been self-conscious about my looks, and later on in my life, my weight after, pretty closely, doubling my weight when I was 10 years old, from 90 pounds to 160 pounds over the course of 6 months. Around the age of 16, I weighed in at 190 at a 5'6" frame. I lost the weight by starving myself, which obviously wasn't the brightest thing to do, took weight loss supplements, and lots of aerobic activity, namely running and Dance Dance Revolution. In about 2 months, I went down to 140, but built back up to 155 after another 8 months, sticking with mainly an aerobic-driven lifestyle. At the age of 17, I enlisted in the United States Marine Corps, which, just recently (I'm now 18), I was discharged and disqualified due to a mental health issue the day I was going to basic training. I was hoping to get in better physical condition with the help of the Corps, but seeing as how they ruined my plan for the next 8 years (wait for laughter), I'm on my own.

At the moment, I am, again, 18 years of age, weighing in at 155 lbs., and 5'8" tall.

Now, my first question.

After all this, I still have, what seems to me is excess head fat or skin, and I know of no exercise to really tone that part out, getting the chiseled "jarhead" I kind of desired coming out of the Corps. Is there any way I could really attain this? It seems weird, I know.

Now, to my other question.

Using the Marine Corps guidelines for the 100% Grade for the Physical Fitness Test, or PFT, being 100 crunches in 2 minutes, 18 minutes 3-mile run, and 20 pull-ups, I am currently doing only 42 crunches, 24 minute run, and only 4 pull-ups. Money is tight, so I can't really join a gym to do supplemental workouts, such as the benchpress and so on. Are there any exercises, besides the ones tested in the PFT, that could build muscles for these specific exercises?

Thanks in advance! ^^

never really heard about someone wanting to lose head fat ... although, the jisled jaw does sound pretty good. But, you may be out of luck as genes play probably the largest role in getting the look you want in your face ... you may not have the jawline to get that look. But, once you drop down to somewhere around 12% BF, you should have an idea as to what possibility you have there.
And, there is no reason to join the gym ... i looked into the navy seal training as my guideline, and i was able to follow the pre-training guidelines pretty good, and i noticed a big difference in just 8 weeks ... and it was just running, situps/crunches, pushups & pullups ... i went from only doing 3x3 chinups to 8x3 ... just keep with the program and always increase even if you don't think you can.

I haven't ever measured my BF ratio, so I guess it's time to check, heh. The thing with what I have at the moment is that it's not that "tightly" wrapped around the bones of my face, but it's definitely not resembling a turkey's chin. It seems to me that it's close to getting there, but when I look down, I feel the skin getting scrunched up and making me feel fatter than I really am.

As for the gym thing... The only problem really is money. I live on my own and my job has no benefits as to reduced fees or anything of the like for gyms in the area. My old job at a casino in the area (that I quit, seeing as how I thought I was going to ship out) had a $17 fee per paycheck for a nearby gym, which wasn't bad at all. I, of course, indulged myself in this, but now, without that help, memberships for gyms seem expensive to me, and I need to set priorities. Maybe in a couple months, I can just save enough money for a year membership then continue saving afterwards.

As for the Marine Corps guidelines, I want to stray away from working out my muscles via repetition. If I work out the same muscles every day, of course there will be some changes, but it seems to me that if I were to do something extra, for example, dips, then it would further work out my arms, as with every other exercise concerning that specific body part. I have no problem running a 4 mile conditioning run then going for 3 sets of max pull-ups and max crunches. I would just really like some additions to the workout, so I could get that "sore-for-3-days" feeling. lol
