Burn 20 calories by doing an easy chair workout

If you want to burn 20 calories easily, here is a simple chair workout that you can perform:
Reader’s Digest suggests doing the following ‘dips’ and ‘lifts’:
To do a dip:
Brace your chair against something, if it has wheels. This will prevent it from moving. Ideally use a chair without wheels.
Facing the chair, place your palms on the front edge of the seat. Slightly bend your knees at a right angle. Then lower your buttocks toward the floor. Raise and repeat for two sets of 10.
This will help tone your triceps and will burn 10 calories.
To do a lift:
Sit on a chair with your back straight and your feet on the floor. Squeeze your knees together and gently bring them upwards, toward your chest.
Try doing two sets of 10.
This will strengthen your abdominals and will also burn 10 calories.
