This exercise is great for toning your abdominal muscles: begin this exercise while<br />

sitting, make sure your knees are touching each other. Put your hand and arms on the<br />

chair’s armrest, if you don’t have armrests then just hold on to the seat. Keep your back<br />

very straight and lift both knees to your chest. Lower your feet to the ground, make sure<br />

they are not touching. Repeat this exercise twenty to thirty times.<br />
