Physical Chess

Get in shape both body and mind: Play Exercise Chess!  So here's how it would work.  The chess board would be set up the way it is normally.  Players would agree how long each side should have total to make their moves for the entire game (I like to play 5 min a side).  You begin like any normal chess game but once you loose a piece you have to do some exercise associated with loosing that piece.  A pawn for example would be worth 10 jumping jacks, a bishop would be 12 chair dips and for loosing a queen 20 push-ups.  Your time would count down not just while you thought and moved pieces but also while you were doing your "earned" exercise.  Your timer gets down to zero and you loose.
