As the Saints-Colts match up draws nearer, there’s just one question on everyone’s mind: are you in shape for the Superbowl?

OK, OK, so maybe you’re not quite ready to be put on a roster. That’s okay! The American Physical Therapy Association, tongue planted firmly in cheek, has outlined 6 exercises that will fit right in with your game viewing. What better way to get a workout without even realizing it?

1. Watch warm-ups while lying on your side and lifting your top leg up, keeping the knee extended. Hold for 5 or 10 seconds and wish for many touchdowns. Repeat on the other side.
2. When your team makes a completed pass, hold your arms out at shoulder length with palms up to the sky. Move your shoulder blades toward one another until the next snap!
3. During commercial breaks, make like a player in the locker room and do some quick wall sits. Press your back flat against the wall. Slightly bend your knees to slide down the wall and hold. Repeat until the game comes back.
4. Grab a couple cans of soda (or, you know, your game watching beverage of choice) and hold one in each hand. Stand with your feet about 6 inches apart. Bent at the waist towards one side and bring the can up under your opposing arm.
5. When the ref makes a bad call against your team, shake your head in disbelief, making sure to tuck your chin to your chest. You’ll stretch and exercise muscles on the back and sides of your neck.
6. If the game comes down to the last few minutes, relieve the tension by lying on your back with knees bent and feet flat on the floor. Bend one knee toward your chest, grab the back of your thigh with both hands, and stretch your leg from the knee.
