1. Carry your shopping

We all know how heavy those shopping bags can get and they’re a great way to get those muscles into shape and boost your daily exercise. So ditch the trolley and carry them to the car.

Many shopping bags are designed to lift 15-25kg, and even the average plastic bag can take 10kg without tearing.

2. Wear ankle weights while watching TV

Perform five repetitions of the following exercises every time the adverts come on. The exercises will help strengthen muscles and boost your daily exercise.

Seated with both feet on the ground, lift and straighten one knee as far as is comfortable. Hold this position for five seconds before returning your foot to the floor and repeating on the other side.

3. Climb the stairs on your tiptoes
