Benefits of Having a Workout Partner

Flabbergasting!
According to one Kansas State University research, an individual who is accompanied by a gym buddy is benefited, as his/her own time span and intensity of workout shoots up by almost 200%, while sweating it out (together) in the gym.

Working out alone can sometimes get boring and tone down your motivation, but when you have a partner, working out together can be real fun. A workout friend brings a lot of benefits to your fitness regimen, a few of which are listed below.

» Do not choose a partner who is lazy, as he/she won't be a motivator, and chances are that you may also end up lazing around.

» Find a partner who is of the same physique as yours, so you can plan your sessions and can help each other while exercising.

» It is also necessary to find a partner who has the same fitness goals, else it can get very frustrating as you can't compare any of your triumphs.

» If you and your partner have some things in common, your workout sessions can become more interesting, and you can start with some more activities together.
