1. Arms and Legs

 
To strengthen your core and balance, lie on your stomach on a mat. Keep your back straight and raise your body by putting weight on your right arm and bending your left leg. Hold this position for a few seconds, then switch sides.

2. Elbows Back

 
Improve your upper body strength by lying face down on the floor. Lift your chin and chest slightly while keeping your back straight. Place your hands behind your neck and pull your arms back as far as possible.

3. Biceps

 
Create your homemade weights by filling two bottles with water or sand. Stand up straight with a bottle in each hand. Flex your arms, bringing the bottles towards your chest. Then move them to the sides and lower them.

4. Single Leg Squats

 
Add variation to your squats by placing one foot forward and the other back. Bend your knee and lower your body, then switch feet and repeat. Continue alternating feet to complete a series.

5. Plank

 
Strengthen your core muscles by performing a plank. Lean on your forearms and toes, keeping your back straight and core engaged. Hold this posture for 10 seconds, then lower. Repeat for multiple sets.

 
 
 
Remember, maintaining energy and vitality after 40 requires a combination of a good diet and regular exercise. Dedicate at least 30 minutes daily to physical activity. For personalized guidance, consider consulting a nutritionist or fitness expert.
