Do you have steps you can walk up?
Do I have stairs?? I'll put it this way...I live on the 4th floor. There is no elevator. I have stairs aplenty!
Take your stairs two at a time. Better yet, do that every time you go up stairs.
Climb trees.
Play soccer.
Build a Garage.
Dig a trench.
Push ups, Sit ups, Pull ups, dips, squats, lunges.
Stairs (run up on flight, then run skipping a step, then hop with both feet , then hop with one foot {both legs} then hop skipping a step, then hop skipping a step with each leg.....
throw a medicine ball in the air (pushing and underhand)
Jump as high as you can on one leg, alternating, for a certain length of time.
Some of these are more serious than others, but they'll all improve your fitness if you work hard at them.
