7 EXERCISES YOU SHOULD DO EVERY DAY

1. Squats

Squats are a compound exercise that targets multiple muscle groups, including your glutes, quadriceps, hamstrings, and calves. To perform a squat, stand with your feet shoulder-width apart, keeping your back straight and your core engaged. Lower your body by bending your knees, pushing your hips back, and lowering your buttocks as if you were sitting in a chair. Keep your knees in line with your toes and your weight on your heels. Push back up to the starting position and repeat for 10-15 reps.

2. Push-ups

Push-ups are a classic exercise that targets your chest, shoulders, triceps, and core. Start in a plank position with your hands slightly wider than your shoulders. Lower your body by bending your elbows, keeping your back straight and your core engaged. Push back up to the starting position and repeat for 10-15 reps.

3. Lunges

Lunges are a great exercise that targets your glutes, quadriceps, hamstrings, and calves. Start by standing with your feet hip-width apart.

Bicycle crunches are a great exercise for strengthening your abs and obliques. Lie on your back with your hands behind your head and your legs lifted off the ground.
