I've used push-ups and sit-ups to increase activity during periods of weight loss (in addition to my main exercise of power walking). Staying disciplined to knock them out each day, and then being able to increase reps over time, has been part of sticking to my plan. I'd like to switch to better exercises and hope there is a good website you can recommend with some basic strengthening exercises for my core, and possibly something to replace the push-ups.

Thanks

    anybody? Just looking for a couple good strengthening exercises for the core.

    I did some 4-count bodybuilders this morning and can tell my core muscles are real weak.

    You can pic what muscle(s) you want to target and select bodyweight only. It explains the move and has short clips that show proper form. As well as tons of articles on training, supplementation, and nutrition.

    I did a 10 week cycle of yayog which was pretty good. For the last couple of weeks I've been using I've been doing fitloop. I prefer doing a harder workout fewer times each week. Both get a thumbs up from me though.

    I second YAYOG (You Are Your Own Gym). That one costs a little, as either a book or an app. The app is all you really need.

    I have the YAYOG app ($2.99 in itunes store). Best money I've ever spent on exercise. I'm in the middle of one of the 10 week programs but you can just use it as a reference or use the workout builder if you prefer.
