To start, determining whether your going for mass or tone. If your going for mass the gym would be there proper place to strength train by doing less reps, more weight. Second is the purchase of light weights. If you can't do 10 reps whether its curls or military press the weights are too heavy. Also purchase of an exercise ball is always good. Now lets get started.

Instructions

Difficulty: Moderately Challenging

Things You’ll Need:

Step1
Push Ups - Push up are and excellent way to build you Triceps and Pectoral muscles. Start with 10 reps if your an amateur at them and go on to do 5 sets. Do them everyday until you think you can throw more reps into it. You'll be amazed at the results you have in 3 weeks.
Step2
Military Press - Military press works out your shoulders. If done standing it also works your core and legs. Proper posture is important during this work out otherwise your back will have consequential developments. Sit on a chair with your weights rested on your knees and slowly lift them with both arms as if your pushing up like the weight lifters in the Olympics. Do them at least once a week to main
Step3
Squats - This works out your leg muscles. First stand with your weights in hand and arms on your sides and slightly separate your feet from each other. Keep them straight and lined up. Then straightened your back to maintain proper posture. Then slowly go down and back up. Keep up once a week.

Also you can have the same stance but instead raise yourself with your toes to strengthen your calves
Step4
Crunches - For your core crunches on an exercise ball is critical. Maintenance for at least 4 times a week is important. Laying on the ball with your hands behind your head don't only crunch up and down. Twisting during while coming up helps bring strength to your side muscles. Make sure to lean back and come up too, this causes your lower ab muscle to be worked too. Do 5 sets
