Alrighty~
I hope you read part 1 first, but if you didn't that's ok!
Exercise is a key component in the diet/fitness formula, and really tones your muscles!
Many of these exercises can be done at home with 5 lb weights!
Exercise 1- At the gym I like to gauge my time by calories. I use the elliptical machine in 100 calorie increments. Try to step backwards and forwards to really work your calf muscles!
Exercise 2- I saved this photo to my phone and do this every time I go to the gym. These exercises really work out the arm muscles. I'm already seeing a difference!
Exercise 3- I call this the side dip. What you do is spread your legs out, while holding a weight dip down 15 times. It really gets at the love handles and side abs that are hard to work out.
Exercise 4- This is a variation of the warrior pose. Starting in that position, squat down for 15 reps.
Exercise 5- The basic crunch.
Exercise 6- The basic leg lift. Start in push up position, lift your leg at 45-ish degree angle, then kick out and bring it back in. Do this ten times on each leg.
Exercise 7- The ~scissor~ Lay on your side, and essentially kick your entire leg up. Do this 10 times on each leg.
These are the basic exercises I do at the gym! I don't see the need in running or anything.
Another thing I like to do is find exercises on Pinterest and weight loss blogs on tumblr!
I hope this helped!
