4 Simple Toning Exercises

Published by lroeder at 9:46 am under All Posts, Exercise Edit This

Here are four simple exercises that you should do each day to tone your body. If you do nothing else, just take 10 minutes and tone your body. You’ll start to see results in a matter of a couple weeks and you’ll feel so much better about yourself.

Crunches - Lay on the floor with your legs in the air at a 90 degree angle and cross your feet. I like to lay with my but against the couch and my legs on the couch. Support your head with your hands, but don’t use your arms to do the crunches. Using your stomach muscles pull your head up until your body comes off the floor at bra strap length. Go  back down. Start with 3 sets of 8 on day one and work up from there.

Push ups - Face down with your knees on the floor and your feet crossed in the air behind you. Your hands under your shoulders on the floor. Bend your elbows until your nose almost touches the floor, then come back up. Start with 3 sets of 8 and work your way up from there.

Squats - Place your feet shoulder width apart, keep your back as strait as a board and squat down as far as you can go, come back up. If this is too easy, use weights. Start with 3 sets of 8 and work your way up.

Lunges -  Lunges can be done in place or walking. To do lunges in place, oyt your right foot in front of you bending both legs, then go back to straight position. Change legs. To do lunges walking put your right foot in front of you bending both logs, then pull the other leg forward going into straight position. Change legs. Start with 3 sets of 8 for each leg.
