EXERCISING USING EQUIMENT FROM AROUND THE HOUSE

Forget expensive equipment or visits to the gym - here are some handy substitutes.

Use the three minutes whilst cleaning your teeth for thigh squats to help tone upper legs and bottom. Stand with feet hip-width apart, bend your knees and slowly lower your body down as if you were going to sit down, keeping back straight and knees directly above the feet. Slowly return to standing position. You can do approximately 15 of these whilst cleaning your teeth - do this night and morning and you are well on the way to keeping things toned.
