March
How to do it
- Knee up to about your hip.
- Opposite arm goes up with it.
- Stand tall the whole time.
- Nothing at all
- Enough floor to lie down on, arms out.
Watch out for this

Easier
- Hold a chair and lift each knee a little way.
Harder
Sitting down? Sit tall and march your knees and arms.
