Who said marching isn't an exercise?
Marching or walking in place provides exercise to keep your heart healthy and manage your weight. Aerobic exercise, exercising "with oxygen," makes your heart and lungs more efficient, increases your energy, improves your mood, reduces stress and tones your muscles. Marching and walking in place require no specialized equipment.
Marching pumps blood to your muscles and gradually increases your heart rate.
