Try indoor walking!

You can do this anywhere. Walk in place or around your home while watching a favorite TV show or movie. If you have access to an indoor mall or track, try that for a change of scenery.

Set up a relay game

Create 4-5 stations with different activities. Try walking in place, jumping jacks, toe touches, push-ups and more. Get the whole family involved and take turns picking out activities.

Get a little competitive. Try a “Who Can Do the Most” (jumping jacks, squats, push-ups, etc) Challenge.
