How To Squeeze a Swim Workout Into Your Lunch Break With This Minute-by-Minute Plan

Hoping to get a swim in but can’t find the time to do it? Working out during your lunch break could be just what you need. Here are some tips to help you efficiently manage your time, plus a step-by-step plan for fitting it in—after all, every minute counts.
The key to squeezing in a swim in the middle of your workday: preparation! Pack your swim bag and a lunch the night before, so you’re not rushed in the morning. Swim bag essentials include your suit, cap, goggles, toiletries, a towel and your hydration.
For that post-swim refuel, think beyond a soggy sandwich. Wraps, salads, and other easy-to-pack items can be put together ahead of time!
