How does the crew stay physically active on the ship during the cruise? Is there an exercise room?

Hello,
The crew stays fairly active by just working.  You could view the ship as a giant stairmaster....For example for the Captain to go from the Bridge to the gym, he goes up and down 4 flights of stairs.  I must climb at least 25 sets of stairs a day.  There is also a well-outfitted gym on board and because the ship operates 24/7, at any time there is generally someone in there...
Thank you for following along.  If you would sign your post, I will know who you are! Gerty

Oh Sorry, this is Fred.
By the way, the engine room video was really cool. As were the polar bears.
