Here's a quick and easy lesson for you: it's not always about the latest hi-tech equipment when it comes to mobility and fitness.

I'm going to prove to you how simple it can be to make valuable improvements to your health with these five non-tech tools we regularly recommend clients when asked about ways to exercise that don't involve needing a gym membership.

1. A beach ball

OK, it's really called an exercise ball.

My tip is to find a medium-size exercise ball, blow it up, then sit on it for about 30 seconds at a time (10 times per day) and begin to work on the core muscles of your lower back.

Do this, and you will see a difference, with less backache and stiffness.

2. A resistance band
