(CNNGo) -- At these panoramic fitness centers there's no excuse to hang onto that post-festivity bulge Basement fitness centers be damned. There are some places around the world that make your intentions to lace up the runners and don the spandex a whole lot more inviting. 1. MV Stella Australis, Chile Ever wanted to jog around Cape Horn but thought it was impossible? Well, it's not. Brand-new ship (in cruise ship terms any ship just past her first birthday is still brand-new) Stella Australis plies the glacier-lined route between Punta Arenas, Chile and Ushuaia, Argentina. The gym is positioned on the top deck with full-height double-glazed windows providing an ever-changing view of snow-dusted mountains and glaciers amid forest-clad fjords. The double glazing is important, as summer temperatures barely reach double figures in South American Patagonia.
