Front Fold
This standing exercise focuses on your back muscles—particularly in your lower back. It's easy and safe and can be adjusted to your fitness level.

Step 1: Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart.
Step 2: Keep your back straight, then bend at the hips and reach down as far as you can toward the floor. Touch the floor if you can; otherwise, try a modified version using a box or step.
Take approximately two seconds to move into position. Bending your knees slightly is acceptable but too much can sacrifice the benefits to your back muscles.
Step 3: Return to the starting position. Be sure to keep your back straight the entire time, and take two seconds to stand. This counts as one repetition.
Step 4: Try to do three sets of 12 repetitions, making modifications as needed.

To upgrade this activity, you can hold weights in each hand or hold a single weight with both hands to increase resistance.
