A wide swath of people will set resolutions this time of year to spend more time in the gym. Sometimes it is never more convenient than to fit in a workout while at the office. Everything needed (including a spectacular view of downtown Houston) to break a sweat can be found at this confidential client’s fitness center.

Taking time to stretch before, during or after work can help alleviate any stress built up from the day. At Twitter’s offices in London, workers can grab a mat and practice their favorite yoga exercises.

Workouts don’t always lack the fun and excitement we get from recreational games. At this confidential client’s fitness center, workers with a little free time can grab some shoes and hit the lanes for a game or two of bowling.

In some cases, having a workout partner can help keep you on track. In Toronto, there is plenty of space at Scotiabank Digital Factory’s fitness room for a group of workers to practice some favorite stretches.
