Core Moves

• Sit-Ups: this is the most basic but effective. As a beginner try 20 sit ups first then work your way up to 50-100 once you’re a pro. To get the maximum effect do not tuck your feet under a chair or table for assistance. 
• Crunches: this one is similar to sit ups but you only need to lift your head and stomach halfway to sit. For start try for three sets of 20.
• Bicycles: Lie on your back feet in the air, knees bent. Place your hands behind your head. Begin pumping your legs in the classic bicycle motion, vigorously, for one minute.
• Planks: Hands down the best overall body weight toning move you can do. Rest on your elbows and toes, keeping your back and legs straight. Hold for one minute.

Cardio Home Workout Moves

• Jumping Jacks: This is one of the easiest cardio, all you need to do is stand upright with your legs together, arms at your side, then bend your knees slightly, and jump. As you jump, spread your legs to be about your shoulder width apart. Stretch your arms out and over your head, then jump back to starting position and repeat.
• Burpees: Get from a perfect plank to a jump with the hands in the air and back again as fast as possible. For start try with 10, then work your way up from there.

Lower Body Home Workout Moves

• Squats: Lower your hips from a standing position then stand back up. Do sets of 10. 
• Lunges: Start standing with your feet parallel. Take a big step forward with your right leg, then land it your knee bent and make sure it’s over your toes. Allow your back knee to drop down toward the floor while swinging your left arm forward to keep your body balance. To return to standing, push your right front foot. Do two sets of 10 on each side.
• Squat Jumps: this is a little self-explanatory, all you need to do is do a regular squat then engage your core and jump. Lower your body back into the squat position for one complete rep when you land. Do two to three sets of 10 reps. 
• High Knees: Jog in place for one minute while simultaneously lifting each knee as high as you can.
• Bavarian Split Squats: Don’t worry it’s not as hard as it sounds. So, on a chair seat or low table behind yourself, do a regular squat with one leg resting. Don’t forget to keep your weight over your forward leg and don’t let your knee bend further than your toes. Do two sets of 10 on each side. 
• Calf Raises: Stand up straight, then push through the balls of your feet and raise your heel until you are standing on your toes. Then lower slowly back to the start. This is the easiest exercise to slip into your everyday life. 

Upper Body Home Workout Moves

• Push-Ups: Do two sets of 10. Let your child sit on your butt for extra weight.
• Dips: Dips by bending your arms until your shoulders are below your elbow. Then come back up. Lean forward when you dip down and lock your elbow at the top of each rep. Dip down until your shoulders are below your elbow. You can add a dip belt to add weights. Do two sets of 10 dips.
• Deadlifts: This is a modified version of the gym. You’ll need something heavy. A low to the ground object perfect for this can easily, such as a two gallon-size jugs of water. Start by standing, feet shoulder-width apart, back straight, reach down and grab hold of the weighted object on the floor in front of you. Return to a vertical position. Lower down; raise back up.
