IrongeezerSays: “Who Are Your Workout Partners?”
Surround yourself with supportive people. Decide what kind of support you need. The Mayo Clinic suggests that you think about the following: Do you want them to remind you to exercise? Ask about your progress? Participate with you regularly or occasionally? Allow you time to exercise by yourself? Go with you to a special event, such as a 10K walk/run? Be understanding when you get up early to exercise? Spend time with the children while you exercise? Try not to ask you to change your exercise routine? All of these factors will contribute to you sticking to your plan, and reaching your goal.
Share your activity time with others. Make a date with a family member, friend or co-worker. A workout partner may help motivate you.

Posted 3:34 pm July 14th, 2008Good Day! I have a couple of workout partners - couldn't do it without them. One is my good friend and training partner of 16 years. The other, much newer, about 7 months.
The first pushed, pulled and everything in between but with his help I got to 3rd degree black belt. The "new" guy has got me into a HIT program (high intensity training) at a fitness center. With his help I hope to gain my next black belt.
As the years go by it takes more effort, more sweat, and complaining, but the rewards are tremendous. Get a training partner, commit time to train, and DO IT! You will love the results and make lifelong friends along the way.
