Good Exercises to Lose Weight

5. Core Charger: Roll Like a Ball

Sit on the floor and hug knees to chest, dropping chin slightly. Balance on tailbone and lift feet. Pull abs in and, using momentum, roll back onto upper back. Contract abs and roll back to start. If the move is too hard, loosen arms, so knees are pulled less tightly to body. Repeat for 30 seconds.

6. Body Shaper: Chair Dip Curl

Sit on edge of chair with feet flat on floor. Grasp chair, walk feet out, and inch butt off seat. Bend elbows straight back and dip your butt toward the ground while pulling left knee toward chest. Lower leg and raise body. Complete a set. Then switch legs and repeat. Firms: arms, shoulders, back, abs.
