I love working out with my hubby Kevin. We have such a blast together and he keeps me going always pushing me to do better. There are many times he has to tell me I must go to spin class when I hem and haw about wanting to sleep in. We have been training for the Reggae Marathon half marathon race (I can’t believe it’s this weekend) and he has been my rock telling me that I CAN do this and not to worry so much about it.
We enjoy going to spin (cycle) and Pilates classes together always sitting side by side and we have done weights together, walked trails and done other cardio at the gym. We are throwing around the idea of buying new bikes so come Spring we can start riding together. Can’t wait to see what activities we decide on in Jamaica. I really enjoy the time I get to spend with him!
I’m glad to see that even celeb couples work out together. Hope this helps them stay together especially when so many celeb couples split so often.
My friend Scott and his wife Angie are the prime example other than Kev and myself ha ha that working out as a couple makes a huge difference and they share how relationships can improve when couples workout together. They have put together More Love Less Fat, a guide to transforming your body and relationship that you might like.
I look forward to sharing our half marathon experience with you all. I think it’s really important to work out with your significant other because its so good for the soul.
Do you work out as a couple?
P.S.
Here are some couples workout ideas from Spark People.
My hubby and I don’t work out…my extra weight is from having 6 kids, and he is a toothpick…sometimes I read about couples that DO work out together, and I’m a little jealous. It sounds like a great time!
I’ve tried working out with my partner, but it doesn’t work well for me.
We both want different goals, so our workouts are totally different.
I prefer working out on my own with no distractions, just me and my ipod.
