(Some take it a little overboard)."</p> <p> <em>-- <a href="http://aol.careerbuilder.com/jobs/keyword/personal+trainer/?siteid=cbaol95int">Find personal trainer jobs</a></em></p>

Running up 40 flights of stairs in seven minutes is a common practice.</p> <p> <em>-- <a href="http://aol.careerbuilder.com/jobs/keyword/firefighter/?siteid=cbaol95int">Find firefighter jobs</a></em></p>
