    You might look up step aerobics. It isn't in my area of interest (bad knees, hate steps) but it sounds like what you're doing would qualify.

    Very creative! Step ups are great. My trainer has me do them all the time. Just keep increasing the height of the step as you are able. You also can increase the workload by holding weights in your hands.
