Workouts can be exhausting, even a bit frustrating to some. But despite the many reasons (or excuses) we can think of to stop or skip, we can't just quit that easily. If you're struggling with your fitness goal, then having a buddy might keep you motivated.
In a recent study by the Society of Behavioral Medicine, doing aerobic work with a partner greatly affects the fitness results after multiple sessions.
Some are lucky to have BFFs, and others have boyfriends or husbands who share their #FitnessGoals. Taking cue from these celebrity couples, it is indeed easier to be fit or lose weight if we have that extra push from our partner:
