The swimming exercise starts with the student facedown on the floor. For sure use a mat if you can for this exercise. This exercise is for the core, back, and arm muscles. Extend arms straight above head and legs directly away from body in superman position as if flying. Inhale, lift and hold left arm and right leg for 5 seconds. Lower arm and leg while exhaling and then while inhaling again lift and hold right arm and left leg for 5 seconds. Continue switching for 8 reps as if swimming. Eventually, hold for10 seconds per motion and increase to 15 reps total within one month.

The Wall Push Up Exercise is best for core, arms, and chest muscles. To do this exercise, face the wall with palms flat on the wall, fingers facing up, and top of fingers at nose level. Each hand should be about 2 inches outside the width of the shoulder. The farther away you stand from the wall, the more strength you will need to do this exercise. The movement for this exercise, standing an average of two to three feet from the wall, is to push the hands into the wall. Body and back should be straight. Inhale through nose as you go towards the wall, and out from the mouth as you push from the wall. Start with one set of 10 reps, build up to 15 reps within a week, and build up to four sets of 15 reps within a month.

The Bicep curl exercise is done with the body facing toward, and feet up to a shoulder width apart. This exercise movement is to start out with the arms extended down to the sides, palms facing forward holding dumbbells. Both dumbbells are curled at the same time, using the muscles from the arms all the way to the hands. Body posture should stay intact during the exercise. I would recommend 10 reps of this exercise the first time, and this can be increased in future sessions slowly.
