Do you workout with your significant other?

My husband and I don't work out together often. We got to a yoga class on Sundays together. If I run at the gym, sometimes he'll come and cycle a bit. However, we have opposite schedules. He wakes up early for work and I work into the evening.

I don't push it with him because he isn't really overweight and he works full time and takes classes. I am more dedicated to working out.

I think in a year, when he is done with classes, I might be able to get him to work out with me more often. However, we definitely still have the schedule problem!

I don't have a SO but my boys and I ride bikes together. My oldest is 18 and lives at his dads now. It holds me accountable to ridewith him because iI have to show up at the trail when we say we're going to ride. It also makes me work harder because I can't keep up with him on the hills!! My youngest is in a cast right now but we plan to lift weights together once the doc releases him.

I like it because I don't want to be the one to back out on our plans and my son won't back out because he won't want to hear me nag

Yep. We get up at 5:00 am Monday - Friday and head to the gym. We do cardio MWF and Body Pump class (his idea) Tues/Thurs. We go for walk on Saturday and Sunday. At the beginning of this year, I took a challenge to work out for 30 minutes every day. He got inspired and decided to join me. Now we figure out a way to get it in - we've even walked in circles around an airport.

My husband won't even try and help me by keeping crap food out of the house, so it's all been me having to push myself. I've had to stop eating crap and not letting myself cave in. I've had to workout on my own. Till recently, he's taken an interest in walking with me. I don't normally walk, I normally jog, but I agreed to walk if he was willing to do it with me. 1 step at a time. He was interest in insanity, then I actually got it and his interest is no longer there. It can't be about interest, has to be about commitment. Oh well I can only do me. I'm about to be ordering Focus T-25 and I can't wait, I feel great and weather he ever does it or not, I still love him. I can't make him do anything he don't want, but he either eats what I cook or he cooks his own food lol. But he isn't picky and actually likes most my cleaner healthier meals. Once in awhile he'll make hot dogs which I can't stand so it doesn't bother me, I usually have my chicken out and ready to be cooked.

My boyfriend & I love to work out together. He is a fantastic motivator for me and we teach each other different work outs to try. He likes to play racquetball & I am not very good. We play racquetball together sometimes and he is always really patient as I am still learning. He will practice yoga with me as well. I really think that working out together and supporting each other has strengthened our relationship. My boyfriend is athletic and fit, whereas I am still working towards my fitness goals. I probably wouldn't have as much success without his motivation on days when I'm just not into it.

I work out with my boyfriend fairly often.

We take a hot yoga class once a week, it's a great class because the teacher accomodates various levels so there are lots of modifications for less flexible boyfriend and then advanced poses for myself.

We also go to the gym together from time to time, I do cardio at the gym (he gets his cardio from biking and hockey) so he does weights and then we meet up to stretch together.

I personally love working out together, I know he wants us to join a sports team but we don't really like the same sports. I've never dating anyone before that I could work out with, but this works out so nicely.

I think the reason it is successful is that we are both sort of doing our own thing, but are also together. Going on runs together doesn't work because he runs much much faster than me and we end up being competitive.

I use to all the time with my ex. We'd go on runs together and to the gym. We're still great friends so if he's ever in the city I try to get him to go on a run with me. Given that I've surpassed his running ability, that never happens.

The current boyfriend won't even consider it. He says he'd be too embarrassed to workout in front of me because I'm in better shape than him. He takes my constructive criticism on health and working out as flat out criticism. Don't really like it though. I've always worked out with who I'm dating.

As often as we can, We run together 2 or 3 times a week and take a walk together 2 or 3 times a week.

Our work schedules are too different---I workout early before my 1st part time job, he works on the way home from work while I'm at my 2nd part time job. Plus both of us are pretty much loners when we work out--just want to quietly concentrate on what we're doing and not socialize.

Only if walking to and from the bar counts ha ha (one time we walked 1.5 miles each way so that might count). We don't work out together, I like to take classes and do HIIT (I am a former dancer and current dance teacher) and he's more of a runner lifter (he used to play soccer). Lots of luck to you and the bf with the workouts. If that doesn't work out see if you can get a friend to join you for exericse.
