The Buddha explicitly expected that his monks would exercise regularly:

"Monks there are these five benefits of walking up and down. What five? One becomes capable of journeys; one becomes capable of striving; one becomes healthy; what one has eaten, drunk, consumed, and tasted is properly digested; the concentration attained through walking up and down is long lasting. These are the five benefits of walking up and down.”
