Musical exercises (chairs)

A fitness twist on musical chairs where students run around a circle of exercise stations and jump onto one when the music stops. It brings back a party favourite with plenty of movement.

1. 1Place exercise stations, such as 40 star jumps or 20 sit-ups, about 5 metres apart in a big circle. Have one fewer station than students.
2. 2Students start outside the circle and run clockwise while the music plays.
3. 3When the music stops, everyone puts a foot on a station and does its exercise.
4. 4Anyone left without a station shares the nearest one with a classmate.
5. 5As soon as they finish, students move around the circle again and wait for the music.
