The Fitness Benefits of Working Out with Your Significant Other

October 12, 2015


Are you bored with the same dating routine? Step up your game and turn your significant other into a gym buddy by working out together. You will gain a lot of benefits! 

1.     More Fit
The first until the third months is the period when you are still psyched to hit the gym. The rest? Let’s just say you are lucky if can make it once a week. Working out at the gym with your loved one will bring back you motivation and enthusiasm. As a couple, you can also try out more challenging workout like Acroyoga or Crossfit.
 2.     More Economical
You are more likely to spend a lot of money if your weekend destination is the mall.  Why don’t you take him/her to the gym? Compared to movie tickets or fancy dinner, gym membership is an affordable long-term investment for you and your significant other’s health.
 3.     Healthier
Do you want to quit smoking? Or your partner is a heavy smoker? Doing exercise regularly will help the process of quitting while at the same time increase your energy and reduce stress that associated with nicotine withdrawal syndrome.
4.     Happier
During and after exercise, our body release endorphin, which will grant you positive feelings, happiness and contentment. After you sweat it off at the gym, you and your partner will go home in happy mood.
5.     More Intimate
Lack of quality time in your relationship? Why not grab your partner’s hand and invite him to be your workout partner after the office hours? Create a shared goal, for instance, you wants to be fit for next year’s marathon. Actively encourage each other and give pleasant compliment when you see notice any positive results.  
6.     Eat More Healthy Food
Committing a healthy diet will accelerate your fitness goals. It’s time to cut out junk food or deep fried food. Don’t waste your time and effort! When you are not at the gym, explore healthy and simple recipes by cooking with each other.
