Does your office have a gym?
When the weather is nice, I go outside and walk/run (depending on my mood and just how nice the weather is), but I hate missing days bc it's freezing or rainy.
Our business location near our house has a gym and I wish mine did. I would love to be able to go workout during lunch (closest gym is 15 miles away). With no travel time, I could get a good workout in, shower, and eat without going over my break. Just wishing our office had a gym. One day...
Do any of you have a gym at your office? Or one close by that you can easily get to during lunch? Do you use it? Would you use it if there was one?
Re: Does your office have a gym?
There's a gym in my building, but I don't use it. We don't get any sort of company discount or anything, which suuuucks. To clarify, the gym is at the top floor of our building (a high-rise), and it's only open to employees within the building, so it's not a chain gym or anything. The monthly dues are more expensive than my gym near home anyway. The deciding factor to not go there was that since I work a flexible hours schedule (6-2; and am only in the office 2 days a week) I didn't want to feel trapped at the office and get stuck in traffic on the way home, or on the flip-side have to drive 20 min+ to my office just to use the gym any other day.
I can see the benefit of having one right there though.
Oh, see our gym is a benefit of the company, so there is no charge. It's there to promote fitness, but is only at one location.
I definitely see your point though. If I had a flexible schedule I wouldn't go either. I just want one now bc I won't go after work -- I'd rather go home and see DH. So if I miss my workout at lunch, I either skip it all together or do something small after dinner.
Ha! That is funny!...
Um, no, we don't. I'd prob use it if we did, but then again, there are 2 I drive by en route home. I'm def not a 'go to the gym' kinda gal. We do have one in our 'clubhouse'-aka the room above the detached garage that I do use.
We do at our corporate headquarters where I used to work in GA. It was one of those "campuses" where they had a gym, big cafeteria, riverfront where you can jog, bank, haircut place, etc.
I never used the gym b/c I thought it was awkward seeing coworkers sweating and grunting. I would rather work out at home and I lived 2 blocks away anyway.
This. We have a 24Hour Freakness in the basement. I used to use it...for 3 years. Then I moved much further away from work to a complex that had a gym, so I cancelled my membership. I used that twice. Then we moved to our current complex, which was redoing its gym. Just reopened. Never used it.
I don't like the gym. I just want to buy an elliptical or a treadmill and hang clothes off of it...I mean use it in front of the tv. Maybe they'll be room in my new house.
We don't have a gym at the bank. One of my coworkers walks a block to the rec center and then walks on the treadmill there. I'd rather walk outside, I am not a gym person.
I come home and meet DH every day for lunch, so I wouldn't use a gym anyway. The girls and I walk the dog every night when I get home - we just started doing this since it's not dark by the time I get home anymore.
