The Bible encourages doing healthy physical activities, saying in 1 Corinthians 6:19–20 that you should treat your body like a temple and "honor God with your bodies".

To do this activity, while seated on the floor, twist your upper body to the left, putting your right arm behind your left knee. Hold for 10 to 30 seconds and then switch sides.

Even a simple physical activity like this one can be a spiritual act of faith if it is done with intention.
