Instructions

1. On several of the wooden blocks, write an activity (activities can be written on more than one block). Include strength, cardio and flexibility activities.
2. Each player will remove a block from anywhere below the highest completed level and then place on the top.
3. As each block is pulled out, if an activity is written on the block, complete the activity.
4. The game ends when the tower collapses
