Anyone else have a gym at work?

I use the gym at work all the time. I try to hit non-peak hours (early morning) but sometimes I even go at lunch. It is a great perk and I don't think you should worry about seeing co-workers. Everyone usually is ear phoned up and enjoying their work out. Also, I think it depends on the size of the company and gym. I work for a large company and it is fairly small gym but it still is not awkard.

I do, I do! It's small, but it's a gym. I kinda agree with your coworkers. I really don't want the people I work with to see me during/after a workout. That being said, I do use the treadmill to get some walking in (just bring sneakers and walk during lunch or before/after work). And, when I've lost more weight and feel more comfortable, I could see myself using the work gym.

Yes we have a gym in my building at work. I use it 4-5 days a week to lift weights. I am following a program on bodybuilding.com and can do about 98% of the program at work. Whatever weights or machines we don't have I pick up later that night at my other gym that I belong to. Then I try and do cardio 2-3x a week as well. Right now it works out nicely.

I don't have a gym at work - we reside in a shared office complex - but I discovered today that my company reimburses $150/year for a fitness club membership. For my new membership that means I'm going to pay $90/year... and that's stellar.

Yep, we have a free fitness center. I don't use it much, since my own gym is bigger and better equipped. Also, there are a lot of people who use the gym at work making it a little crowded.

We use the gym at my wife's office, $50/yr, hard to beat. Very crowded in January, a little less in Feb and will be fairly empty by March. We love it!!

I joined our fitness center in December. They just raised the price before I joined, and it's $13 every two weeks, I think. Basic equipment--3 treadmills, 2 ellipticals, rower, stationary bikes, 5 or 6 cybex machines, and free weights. They've got classes (spinning, zumba, kickboxing, etc) also, but the workout room is small so I've only taken one class.

It's been great for getting my workout done after work, before I get home and hit the couch. I see the same people there all the time, and I don't worry that they see me in my sweaty glory. They can get over it.

I first had one in the early 1990s but left that job in 1995. My previous employer had a really good one but in one of their economy moves they started charging $20 a month to use it. I think that's really awful- why should they discourage its use? I learned a lot from the people they had working there and enjoyed the exercise classes as a break from my routine. New employer also has one- not as well-equipped and with no employees, but also no charge. I'm there nearly every day, and have a membership at a community gym for the weekends and the rare days I can't fit exercise into my workday.

As for being with co-workers when I'm not wearing my respectable business suits- no biggie. I end up meeting people I wouldn't meet otherwise and in a large company that's always good.

I work at a university, so I have a sweet fitness center discount to the gym on campus. I do see my co-workers and some students I work with, but generally I go so early that I don't see too many people. I love that it's convenient to the office and I can just work out, shower, and walk across the street to work.

I work at a college, and the gym is about a 4 minute walk from my building, so I try to go a couple of times a week during my lunch hour to workout, and occasionally I go on the weekends or on an evening to work out longer. It's free for all faculty and staff, so I definitely try and take advantage of it!

My job has two actually. We have two locations with several hundred people at each place. The main gym is at the one I work at now. I use it. I prefer Planet Fitness but my work gym provides towels. I will occasionally work out at PF then drive to my work location and shower. By getting at work early to work out I get to park beside my desk just about instead of 2 streets over. Not literally that far but it sure feels that way.

I used to work for the YMCA & got to use the gym for free...but I did not like to workout there. Not because I ran into co-workers (I think I ran into a co-worker only once or twice) but because it was pretty limited in what they had to offer in the weight room.

I would much rather work pay for my having a gym membership & let me pick the gym.

It's a great perk.
Use it.

I usually go during lunch time.
Less people & keeps me focused as I only have an hour.
