    I find that I get more done when I am alone because I don't get distracted.

    I am the worst gym partner I go alone. I like to listen to my music and tune out the world around me. I have no patience for chatting while I am working out.

    By myself, unless it's to a zumba class, then a friend usually meets me there.
    When I'm putting in my cardio time on the elliptical, there's no reason for a friend to be there- my headphones are in, I'm not talking, and I get annoyed as all get out when people stand around and chat. But that's just me.

    either way is good for me.............my daughter sometimes comes along but we don't chit chat we both do our exercise then leave together..................

    when I am alone on Tuesday nights I watch the Biggest Loser and that pushes me harder.............

    always go alone! this is how it goes........... kit on, locker shut, head phones in blasting flo rida etc, talk to no one, only focusing on my hown heart beat and sweat pouring out and form, towards the end of the workout when calling down quick sneaky peak at the people with nice bodies for future mental image inspiration!

    have a shower, stick the timberlands on and head out to the BMW in the car park, knowing I gave everything with out any body disturbing me or chatting ****.

    I hate going alone!

    I'd rather have someone there that I can push and be pushed as well.

    This may sound odd, but the gym time is MY time. I go there to loose weight, and let the days aggravations leak out into my workout. It's a therapy really. I don't want to have to be bothered with having a conversation when I am busting my butt on the elliptical. :)
