Just simple press ups can provide a work out for your chest, as a lot of people give themselves a gentle warm up with these.

one I used to do ages ago was & sorry if this doesn't make any sense but I'll do my best

have a clock in front of you for this & do 10 - 15 press up what ever you feel comfortable with in one minute, this you'll probably do in 15 - 25 seconds say & leave the rest of the minute to rest

then repeat the above ie 10 - 15 press ups in next minute & again what ever time you have left over use this to rest

Do this for 10 minutes so all in you do 100 - 150 press ups, I found this a really good way of working my chest, although others found it really easy & didn't do anything for them

**** If you're back starts hurting stop though ***

With working the stomach there are plenty of other exercises which "shouldn't" put too much strain on you back eg lay flat on you back & lift you feet 2 inches off the floor and hold them there then lift to approx 6 inches & return to 2 inches & do this 10 - 15 times or again whatever feels comfortable

again if you're back starts hurting then stop.

Exercising a particular area will NOT rid it of fat. i.e. training your chest will not trim the boobs!

You need to do general cardiovascular exercise. Swift walking, running, swimming, cycling etc etc.
