How many of you actually workout while at work?

I've been fortunate in that I had a very large company facility at my last work place, with spinning classes and lots of equipment.

My current location doesn't have the facility, but it does have a locker room and showers, and a huge network of trails for running, and some pretty quiet country roads close by for riding. So yes, I do a large portion of my workouts on my lunch "hour and a half".

Latrina, Sure you can do it.....however;   YOU MUST MOVE QUICKLY!  Too much time can be lost just getting dressed to go out the door.   And unless you get more than an hour for lunch, you won't be able to run for very long.  That being said-you can get some quick, intense workouts in; stop for some pushups and chin ups along the way. 

Sink bath-fill sink with cool water, squeeze in just a bit of soap and wash up.  Focus first on your face, then get down to the dirty/stinky parts.  You'll probably still be sweating a bit when you get back to your desk-just tell everyone that you finished your work out.  They'll be envious.  

YOU CAN DO IT!

and I'll pass on the Marines LOL But thanks though!

 This is just some easy off season training. i.e. running, biking and done! I've got 1-2 hours to work with.

 I think I need to start driving routes tomorrow...you guys are very convincing...

If you are serious about getting in shape I would suggest you work through this issue.  It'll suck for the first week or so but you'll get into a nice groove rather than the rut you are fighting out of.  Best of luck.  You'll be posting in that Girls of BT Thread before you know it!

I work out 1 or 2 days a week running with some people from my office.  At first I had no showers available but do now.  One thing is that the showers really don't matter unless you sweat a ton.  If you do, then you simply have to decide if you care?  To me health out weighs smell any day.   Plus, it helps keep people away.

I train nearly everyday during lunch.  Usually alternating biking and running.  Great trail right by my office.  Luckily we have a small gym, an aerobics room, and showers.  Plus a cafeteria in the building so eating afterwards is no problem.

Makes all the difference to me so that I don't have to take away any family time in the evenings.

1-2 hours is plenty of time! Do it while you can, if you really want to make it work. Don't worry about what people think: you're the one going out there! You won't be the fat girl trying to workout for long! Get rid of that mentality!

GET OUT THERE!

As for the shower, wipes, washrag (light soap), wipe down, new deodarant. You shouldn't do too much damage with an hour or 2 of lighter workouts especially since its cooling off.

GOOD LUCK!

I agree with Comet, enders_shadow, and jeffinboise. 

I do a workout at the office occasionally (usually when I have to make one up that I missed in the morning).  It's not the best case scenario, but it is doable.  Be efficient, use the sink and wipes, and you can get your workout in.  Good luck! 

I almost ALWAYS get one of my workout in at lunch.  I pick the shorter of the two and do it on my lunch break.  Occasionally, I have to stretch my lunch to 90 minutes to get it in. 

I have a gym 5 minutes away, so I can get a shorter run or swim in most of the time.

In Colorado, my office had a shower, and small locker room.  So I was able to get an hour in and take a quick shower.

During the heart of the season; I would at least get one of two workouts in at lunch (usually a nice swim). I would actually schedule the time on my Outlook (be sure to make it a private appointment) so that no one would schedule meetings on top of my workout. Now take into consideration that sometimes you have to move it around, but at least you have it there. I would do the corresponding workout either before or after work.

The beauty with a lunchtime workout is that it gives you a change to think, get away from the stress and other issues. I would also let at least one superior know what i was doing just to head off any rumors or miscommunications.

My workplace has a shower so I can take a quick 35 minute run and then be at my desk in one hour.  On a really slow day I run to a local swimming pool, swim 500 yds and then run back.  It takes about an 75 minutes.  On those days I don't get a complete run or swim workout but the change of pace is a real kick. 

 That said, all my coworkers think I'm nuts...
