anyone exercise during their work lunch break?

I get an hour lunch and usually walk for about 30 minutes. My goal is to get as many steps as I can at work so I can relax all evening after. I'm usually around 13k steps.

I often cycle at work during my lunch break. Right now I'm training for a time trial series so it makes it pretty easy as I'm not going for distance...just balls out for 30 minutes or so. If you only have an hour I would suggest taking 30 minutes to do some more intense work than you otherwise would in a 60 minute session. Go harder.

When I'm not doing overtime and can take my full hour, I try to go walking for 30-45 minutes or whatever time I have left after I eat.

I'm another one who walks. I walk a mile each way to work and about another mile at lunch time (there's a large park next to my work so I walk half a mile, eat my lunch on a bench or in the winter gardens if it's raining, then walk back).

There are also rental bikes available next to my work but (a) I would get sweaty and changing/showering uses up a lot of time, and (b) I had one stolen once while it was chained up as I ate my lunch and the whole thing was a hassle - so I haven't rented one for a while.

I go for a run twice a week on my lunch break for 30 mins, then 30 mins to get changed either end and get back to the office. It really does help pick me up for the afternoon

I work a desk job but am lucky to have a gym at work - great value at only £10/month!

My boss lets me to trade my five lunch hours for three longer breaks to give time for a full hour training plus changing/showering time.
Small gym but good quality cardio equipment, weights are a bit limited so you have to be a little bit creative with workout routines sometimes. I have a local gym membership as well for the more challenging workouts so regard work gym as giving bonus workouts that don't impinge on my social/family time.

When I started running out of weights I asked the Gym Manager if he could get bigger dumbbells and the accessory that allows more weight to be added to the weights machines and he made the curious comment...
- "It's not that kind of gym."

I have (2) 15 min breaks and a half hour lunch. I walk on one of my breaks and half of my lunch. If I don't walk half of my lunch, then I walk on both of my breaks. Either way, I get a half hour walk in during the day.

I generally do the same thing... walk on my breaks and/or at lunch. Usually totals 40-45 minutes per day (I have an hour lunch break). And then if I'm really motivated and it's not too hot, I'll walk again in the evening

I'm afraid to ask what cucumber wipes are

I walk during my lunch hour every day. Depending on the weather, it'll either be outside or I'll go to Target and walk the aisles to my music. And try not to collide into people.

There's a set of stairs about 10 city blocks from my office... 167 stairs... I walk their climb the stairs twice (up and down)... and head back to work... then on my way back I grab a low carb lunch... 3 days a week... it serves as my HIIT work out... I have been doing the 2 round trips for about 6 weeks... come august I will be adding a 3rd trip...stairs are awesome... because regardless of how fit you are... you can really put the screws to yourself a variety of ways...running, jumping, 2 at a time etc... it's better outdoors...and misery loves company... there are usually a couple hundred people on the stairs at lunch.

I used to either do our stairs, we have a steep narrow staircase in my building, or go for a walk. Now that my knee is better and I'm off of crutches I plan on resuming this practice.
