Side plank

Fantastic for toning up the sides of your stomach.

Lie out on your side with elbows directly below your shoulder and with your legs outstretched. From this position raise your hips so you are forming a bridge from your feet to your lower arm. Hold this position for 20 to 30 seconds.

 

Step up into bicep curl

Stand opposite a chair, arms straight, holding a bottle of water in each hand. Keeping one leg on top of the chair at all times, step up, curling your arms towards your chest. Finish by stepping back down and straightening your arms. Repeat 15 times.

 

Tricep extension

Rid flabby arms by attacking fat

Holding a bottle of water in each hand, lie on your back, arms straight directly above your head. Bend both your elbows and slowly lower the cans to the floor by the side of each ear. Repeat this 15 times.

 

Press up

Firms up the bust area and arms

Go on to all fours on the floor. Keep your arms where they are and move your knees away from your body until your legs are straight and your toes tucked under your feet.
