    My husband and I really enjoy going to yoga together... it took quite a bit of convincing to get him to try it, but once he did he was hooked! You could also go out and hike/snowshoe/cross country ski together, since it's winter and all!

    We love doing p90x, and during the warmer months we do a lot of trail biking together.

    My husband and I can workout at the same time but not "together". He insists on doing this random, spontaneous, mish-mash workout with no plan or goal. Whereas I have to plan out my whole week, each workout is structured, organized and timed.

    But daily sex is our favorite activity, so the system works lol

    The first option sounds a lot more fun.
    I know a few couples at my gym either lift weights or do spin class together.

    Our second favorite physical activity :wink: is sparring--sometimes light playful sparring without gear, and sometimes more serious "I'm gonna knock your head off" sparring with padded gear.
    We also like to run and bicycle together.
    We keep talking about learning to dance, but we just can't squeeze it in right now (except for the slow kind that's not really a workout.)

    Oh, yeah, we have a Wii and a few fitness/dance games. We could do that together, but I mainly do those with the kids.

    May I suggest getting an Xbox one, buy the Gold - get the fitness channel. Buy Just Dance 2014 & Zumba World Party. Get a HRM. Zumba burns anywhere from 400 - 600+ cals an hour.

    Buy cheap dumbells at Target or Sports Authority, or used. I use them to do a light dumbbells w.o. & watch things I like on netflix, like documentaries.

    My husband and I hike and Roller Skate! I knew I had found my soul mate when I talked about old school speed skates and not being able to get into the Inline skating!!! My kids love it too! And they also wear speed skates because we're just cool like that! :wink:

    My husband doesn't have as much to lose as I do and he doesn't have specific goals but does want to trim up a bit...sometimes he'll do Wii Just Dance with me and we're getting a gym membership today (though you already have that). Another thing is that we started this week-take a few workouts that are under 5 minutes each and write them on popsicle sticks. In the morning, we pull out a random popsicle stick and do it. It may be crunches or planking, but something quick that will get us up, moving, and energized for the day before he heads off to school.
