Playing the devil's advocate here (and being a little pedantic), if you were literally a brain in a jar, someone could find a way to stimulate the centers of the brain that deal with motor skills and physical sensation and simulate corporeal experience.

Assuming that you really mean you're just pure consciousness, I'd choose a body experience with a normal lifespan since I tend to believe that the other option is, roughly, what we get as an "afterlife."
