Body Weight Exercises
#1
I recommend basic body weight exercises as a good daily exercise. Ideally we should be able to get up and down from the floor fast and easily. Try getting down to the floor and back up in various ways. Try with only using one arm and then neither arms. We should be able to lift ourselves up and over things. We should have a good full range of movement.

Balance practices can also classed as bodyweight exercises. Move into unbalanced postions and get used to them and then pull yourself back to balance. It is better to have stronger legs than arms rather than a bulky upper body and arms and weak legs. Get the foundation strong. This can include heel raises and squats for example.

Aim for functional strength at least. This can then signal to the body and help with weight loss. 

If your have joint problems or similar issues then modify your exarcises. Don't make problems worse. Choose exercises that you can do wich dont make any existing injuries worse. 

muscles come in pairs. You can tense both muscles at the same time at different joint angles ie isometric and dynamic tension exercises. The muscles pairs can help strengthen each other. 

Take a joy in body movements. Have a curiosity and experiment.
