Taking on a fitness journey is no small feat, especially if you are going at it alone. While your fitness goals are personal to you and your body, having someone on the journey with you has many hidden benefits that we will explore today!

Accountability? Is that you?
Normally, we talk about the benefits of instructors and Personal Trainers to help motivate you, but having a gym partner who will hold you accountable is just as great! YOU know you want to reach your goals, but what about those days that you just don't feel like hitting the gym? A gym buddy will remind you of YOUR goals, and why you started, as well as, keep you on track.

There's Nothing Wrong With A Bit Of Friendly Competition
As humans, we are naturally competitive and having someone join you for the ride can help to tap into your competitive spirit. Competition in fitness between friends can be fun, help you reach your personal best, and push you to go the extra mile.

Besties Protect Besties
Safety is always a major factor when it comes to being in the gym. Not only for beginners but for people at all fitness levels. With your gym buddy at your side, you can help each other prevent injury by checking each other's form, spotting each other, and creating a safe environment for each other to workout without worry.
