Back Exercise Equipment

I am 54. I have not exercised in 10 yrs. What’s a good exercise for external & internal obliques and my back.?
I want to be able to do this at home, within a half an hour and without any equipment, such as an exercise ball. Also, it would be appreciated if you have a suggestion for a stretch to do after I have done the stomach and back exercise. Thank you in advance!
Using an exercise ball as a computer chair gives you a little workout on your core. It is called active sitting and depending on how much you sit, it burns quite a bit of calories (much more than slouching in a chair). It also forces you to maintain your posture, which helps keep your core muscles taut. I highly recommend anyone who sits for long periods to sit on an exercise ball. You will find you naturally wiggle, roll, bounce keeping muscles active.
Bouncing (whether it be on a trampoline, jumping jacks, running or bouncing on a ball) helps your lymphatic system. This fluid flows through your body just like your blood stream but depends more on gravity since it doesn’t have a heart muscle pumping it.
According to the article posted below, you can burn 350 calories a day (I’m assuming that’s 8 hours a day) more using an exercise ball instead of a chair. If true, that would be 36# a year in calories burned.
It only takes a few moments to get used to sitting on one. I originally considered buying a stabilizing ring but glad I didn’t, it would just get in the way. I bought a bit more expensive ($40 ten years ago) burst proof one for my first ball but have bought one from a clearance bin at Walmart for a couple of bucks and really don’t feel a difference (neither have burst either though).
