Daily Exercise routine to become strong and toned?
I’m at a healthy weight for my age(15yrs), but i want to be toned.
My gym teacher, my coaches, my family, my friends (the list goes on and on) all tell me that i am weak.
What is a good daily exercise routine to become toned and to get stronger? (how many crunches, push ups, etc.)
btw, I already do cardio everyday.
Here’s a program I like made for Marine Corps physical fitness test training, if you stick to it, improving the intensity as you can, you will grow strong.

try going to the gym and lifting weights. I do about anywhere from 10-20 pushups and more almost every night. Then I do 20 crunches but I also do different kind of crunches that add up to about 100 crunches and do situps and punch someone’s hand or just punch I do that about 20 times also. and starting lifting dumbells to.

As far as strength training in general goes, remember to rest AT LEAST 48 hours between working out a certain part of the body (i.e., only do push ups every other day).
Push ups – 3 sets of 5-10 (try as many on your toes in each set as you can get)
Tricep dips (on the end of a step or a bench) – 3 sets of 10
Lunges – 3 sets of 10 on each leg (preferably with some weight, try 5-10 pounds in each hand)
Squats – 3 sets of 10
Plie squats – 3 sets of 10 with 6-15 pounds
Single leg calf raises – 4 sets of 10-15 each leg
Regular crunches – 3-4 sets of 30
Bicycle crunches (with a slight pause at the top of each, and relaxed leg as straight and close to the ground as possible – but not touching!) – 3 sets of 20.
Back extensions on a yoga ball – 3 sets of 10
Side crunches – 3 sets of 12-15 on each side
