5 Reasons to Work Out With Your Significant Other

Regular activities, such as exercise, are vital to your health. According to Healthline, people should get at least 10,000 steps in a day. When you work out, you’ll keep your heart healthy and maintain a healthy weight. However, it can be hard for some people to get up and start moving regularly. If you’re married or have a partner, working out with them can bring many benefits to your life. Here are some reasons why you should make your significant other your workout buddy.

1. Improve Mobility

1 in 25 working-age American adults (18-64 years old) is dealing with arthritis, which causes work limitations. By finding the right exercise and stretching techniques, you may be able to improve the limitations imposed by arthritis or chronic injuries. When you work out with your partner, you’ll also have someone there who can assist you as you deal with mobility problems during your workout. A good workout that you can do together is aqua therapy. Whether you have full or limited mobility, the buoyancy of water provides great natural resistance for your muscles while not injuring your ligaments.

2. Have a Gym Buddy

There are about 335,000 businesses registered in Kentucky, and some of them are gyms. Going to the gym can be intimidating for some people, especially if they are currently overweight. Some people may be afraid to try certain exercises or equipment like weights. However, going to the gym with your partner can ease any stress or anxiety you may have by being there on your own. Plus, working out at the gym together can help pass the time. You’ll have somebody that can spot you for certain exercises, such as weight lifting. Some gyms also have a family discount for households that have two or more people, so if you have kids, maybe they can join as well.

3. Bond Over Music

Working out can be a chore for some people if they haven’t found the right exercise for them. That’s why many people often listen to music when running or at the gym. Over 64% of music surveyors listen to pop, including those out on runs or in an aerobic class. If you and your spouse have a particular song or music genre that you both love, incorporate it into your workouts. You can also find an aerobics class that caters to your favorite genres, such as Jazzerobics or hip-hop dance.

4. Spend Quality Time Together

Maybe you and your spouse both have busy schedules like other people. However, working out together allows you both to spend quality time together while also improving your health. The key here is quality time, since some people may think just sitting in front of the TV or being in the same room while playing on your smartphone equals quality time. However, if both people are distracted by electronics, maybe you’re not bonding as you should. However, having a couples-based workout or working out with other groups of people will allow you to focus on each other as well as a healthy purpose.

5. Accountability

The best person to hold you accountable is your spouse. Since you live together, it’ll be hard to skip out on workouts you agree to do together. That way, if you are committed to losing a certain amount of weight, walking several steps daily, or spending a certain number of hours a day being active, you have another person there to ensure you live up to a commitment to good health.

One of the best ways a couple can bond and help each other is by working out together. Staying as fit and healthy as possible can ensure you both are around for a long time and celebrate many anniversaries together.
