1. Prepare a chair without rollers, sit in the front 1/3 of the chair, put your hands on both sides of the chair to keep your body balanced, keep your feet together, tighten your abdomen, and lean your upper body back slightly (using a chair without rollers is to avoid injury caused by imbalance during subsequent movements).

2. After tightening your abdomen, put your feet together, bend your knees and lift them to at least the same height as the chair surface, then put your feet down on the ground. Lift and lower them back and forth 10 to 12 times as one round, and do 3 rounds in total. Tip: You can lean your back slightly against the chair while doing this exercise to save effort. This movement can also strengthen your abdominal muscles.

3. Hold your hands tightly and place your forearms on the chair, with your upper arms and forearms at 90 degrees. Spread your feet shoulder-width apart with your toes touching the ground. At the same time, squeeze your hips and abdomen and stay for 30 seconds. This movement can exercise the muscles of your arms, abdomen and lower body.
