Bench activities
You don’t need expensive equipment to exercise – benches are great for a range of exercises!

There’s something for everyone so get your whole family involved.
Let’s begin!
Easy – Knee taps
- Sit on the bench with your right hand behind your head.
- Raise your left knee and move your right elbow towards your knee until they touch.
- Try 10 of these on one side then switch sides!
Medium – Marching step ups
- Start sitting on the bench with your arms crossed across your chest.
- Then stand up and do 4 high knee marches on the spot then sit back down.
- Try doing this 10 times!
Challenging – Tricep dips
- Sit down with your legs stretched out in front of you.
- Put your hand on the bench next to you and raise yourself off the bench so your knees are bent and only your hands are touching the bench.
- Then lower yourself by bending your arms as much as possible and then push yourself back up to the starting position.
- Try this 10 times!
Extra challenge!
- Give yourself 1 minute and see how many of each exercise you can do!.
