You can use anything from a chair at home to a bench at the gym for these.If you're using a bench, start with your palms down on the bench, underneath your butt (about shoulder width apart) with your fingers facing forward. Bend your legs out in front of you so that they form a 90-degree angle with your hips. Move yourself off the bench (keeping your butt close to the bench) so that your arms are supporting you. Then bend at the elbow to lower yourselfdown, creating a 90-degree angle with your arms. Make sure to keep your shoulders, elbows, and wrists in line with each other. Then bring yourself back up again and repeat.You should be feeling this exercise in the back of your upper arms. Click here to see a full video on how to do tricep dips.

Ifyou don't have weights at your disposal, Itsines suggests using an everyday object like canned soup or a water bottle.Lay down on the floor with your legs and arms extended completely. The weight you're holdingshould hover just above the ground. While contracting your abdominal muscles, bring your knees in towards your chest, while at the same time bringing your hands, and weight,towards your knees.Your head, shoulder blades, and torso should be coming off the floor as you bring your handsto your knees.Then release and extend your arms and legs back intotheir starting position and repeat.You should be feeling this exercise primarily in your ab muscles.Join the conversation about this storyNOW WATCH: JIM ROGERS: The worst crash in our lifetime is coming
