Workout During Lunch Break

It still may sound a bit strange, but experts say that combining fitness and lunch is one of the best ways to incorporate exercise into a busy lifestyle. Others, however, are not in favor of it.

Craig Valency, a personal trainer at the Scrippts Ranch Bally Total Fitness club in San Diego says:

"From CEOs to college students, working out during a lunch break is growing in popularity, and it really is a fun and easy way to get more physical activity into your life."
