Do you guys use gyms at your work?

If you do, when you when do you use it? And do you just throw your work clothes back on afterward?

I don't have a gym at work, but the gym I go to is across the street from my work building. I usually workout immediately after work and go home to shower in my gym clothes.

I do whenever possible. I prefer to go in the afternoon ~2pm. That way I've had a somewhat substantial meal beforehand and it allows me some needed certainty about actually being able to go vis-a-vis my insulin dose.

I SHOWER after I work out. It disgusts me that some men go back to their offices right after working out and do not shower first. If you're going home, fine. But do not go back to your office to work. Go straight home.

You'll get cleaner if you take 'em off first

I don't. My schedule is too tight during the day to fit it in; however, I do exercise at home before and after work.

Workout during lunch at gym across the street. Shower after workout and head back to work.

I used to go to my gym after work at night, but I am often getting out of work pretty late (9:30pm) so that I was actually going less and less often.

I have switched to the work gym. 45 minutes over lunch, then shower then lunch. It's a big lunch-break but nobody has complained yet. I can get 3-4 gym sessions in a typical week that way.

I have a very decent elliptical machine at home with some free weights.

At work, we have a newly built gym with very fancy equipment and also two full-time physiologists/trainers type.

I do both.

I usually use ours at lunch or right after work. I don't shower at work because I would have maybe 20 minutes to work out if I did. I never stink though!

This is what I do. I work out for about an hour, Monday through Thursday. Rest on Friday.

A shower takes 10 minutes top. You can't leave work 10 minutes later or arrive 10 minutes earlier?

Now I understand the appeal of hiring trainers of the opposite sex.
