Reply from Chantel, Age 14 - 11/01/05 - IP#: 204.221.212.xxx you can do wall squats put your back against the wall and then bend your leg until they are at a 45 degree angle and hold it for a while...

Reply from Julie, Age 17 - 11/01/05 - IP#: 4.242.171.xxx Crunches are okay. They don't really help you lose fat, the way cardio exercise does, but they help tone and build your muscles, and the more muscles you have, the more fat you burn, on a regular basis. I would deffinately suggest that you do some kind of cardio as well. Why do you have to stay in your room? I can't think of any good exercises that you dont need any equipment for. Maybe jumping jacks? Or if you have a jump rope?
Reply from Jules, Age 15 - 10/31/05 - IP#: 64.222.39.xxx Crunches are great for you! They help you build muscle in your abs. Try doing them in different directions: like put your legs to one side them after that switch to the other -- you can work on your obliques!
