1. Squat and press
Works legs, butt, and shoulders
Stand with feet shoulder-width apart and loop the center of a resistance tube under your arches. Hold a handle in each hand next to shoulders with palms facing forward. Bend knees, lowering hips until thighs are parallel to the ground, then rise up as you press your hands overhead. Return to start position and repeat.
2. Row
Works back and biceps
Sit on the ground with legs extended and loop a resistance band around your arches. Hold an end of the band in each hand and sit with torso tall, chest high, and shoulders back. Extend arms in front of you, palms facing each other, and wrap band around hands until it’s taut. Keeping chest high, draw hands toward lower part of rib cage. Extend arms again and repeat.
3. Resisted push-up
Works chest, triceps, and core
Hold an end of the band in each hand. Wrap band across shoulder blades and get in push-up position on hands and toes (or knees if necessary), wrists aligned under shoulders. Band should be taut. Lower into a push-up, then press up; repeat.
4. Lunge and curl
Works legs, butt, and biceps
Hold an end of the band in each hand at sides, palms facing forward. Loop center of band under right foot and lunge forward with right leg; thigh should be parallel to the ground and knee should be aligned over ankle. Curl hands toward shoulders. Lower arms as you stand up, keeping legs staggered. Return to lunge and repeat. Switch sides to complete set.
5. Butt blaster
Works butt
Get on hands and knees, with an end of the band in each hand. Loop center of band around arch of right foot; fl ex both feet and keep them flexed throughout. Raise right foot slightly off the ground so band is taut. Extend right leg straight behind you to hip height. Bend right knee again and repeat. Switch sides to complete set.
6. Triceps extension
Works triceps
Stand with feet hip-width apart and hold an end of the band with left hand behind you, palm facing away from you. Hold the other end with right hand, elbow bent and pointing up; wrap band around hand until it’s taut. Straighten right arm. Bend right elbow; repeat. Switch sides to complete set.

Nice and simple workout plan. You have to use these exercise moves for more than a week.. and use the right resistance if you want to see results.
