Tips

 

My one tip is never give up no matter how hard it gets and keep going through the feelings of 'I can't be bothered' because think of the overall picture and change your mind to 'I can be bothered' Also if you do the exercises with a good attitude, you will feel much better about doing them, and also don't think of it as a chore, it's completely your choice whether to do them or not but it will be better for you if you do them, so keep that in mind

.

Some simple arm exercises are Press ups, half press ups

Some simple leg exercises are ankle raises off a step, squat with your back against a wall and hold it there for as long as you can, squats, running on the spot, and skipping is surprisingly helpful too!

Some useful stomach exercises are laying on your back and lifting only your legs off the floor, crunchies and V sits

And one last thing, don't kill yourself trying to do these! take it easy to start with. Don't get stressed out either this will not help the process of getting fit or help you in the rest of your life!!!

You don't necessarily need to buy anything to do these

 

 

Warnings

 

Make sure you are doing the exercises in suitable, safe areas where you could not possibly injure yourself or any other living thing or damage any object!

Always do a warm up before you start your exercises to get your muscles warmed up.

Don't overdo it!

If you start feeling something hurting then stop and rest yourself for a day or two until you are feeling better. And if it still hurts, go to a physio or a doctor.
