If you've been struggling to achieve your fitness goals then maybe it's time to grab a partner.
Everybody hits plateaus in their workouts - you get sick, family situations arise, work demands get bigger. Before you know it a few days off turns into a few weeks which turns into months and then you're starting over from square one because the gap was so big all your results went out the window.
People that workout by themselves have a drop out rate that's nearly 40% higher than that of people who workout with a partner.
Working out with a partner is successful because:
- It's social - happiness studies have proved that we need human interaction to have sustained happiness
- There's accountability - you're expected to meet at a certain place and time each day so you're more likely to go
- It's competitive - you push each other more so you end up working harder and burning more calories
- There's motivation - your partner can keep you going through lulls so you stick with it and avoid falling back into old habits or dropping out completely
If you need somewhere to workout together that's clean, fun, and full of energy please let me know. There's this great health club I know about that can help you achieve your goals ;)
