Angled Calf Raises 

• Start by holding a dumbbell in each hand and stand shoulder width apart.
• Turn your toes out so that your feet form a 45-degree angle.
• Keeping your legs straight, raise up on your toes as high as possible, pause for a count of one and slowly lower to the starting position.
• Fit Tip: It is best to do this exercise on a solid surface like a hardwood or concrete floor, not carpet.

Twist Crunch

• Lie flat on your back with your knees bent and your hands beside your head.
• Let your legs fall as far as they can to your left side so that your upper body is flat on the floor and your lower body is on its side.
• Press your lower back down into the floor while you roll your upper body slightly up until your shoulder blades reach the ground.
• Concentrate on your obliques; contract and hold the crunch for a count of one. Hold the contraction and slowly lower to the starting position, count one and perform the next rep.
• Switch to the other side after you completed your planned number of reps.
• Fit Tip: Don't lock your hands behind your head.
