    swimming and pilates are all that come to mind
  • wall push ups (fast) and just upper body boxing (punching)

    This may sound silly but If you have a wii, try sweat points in ' just dance'. The wii only records your arm movements so you can perform whilst keeping your 2 feet still.
  • Rowing Machine
