5 fun workouts you can try with your significant other
Let's be real. Workouts can sometimes get mundane, especially if you are doing it regularly. One way to prevent it from getting boring is by mixing up your exercises and trying various routines. Another is to have a friend or partner to do it with. Working out with your boo releases endorphins and binds you to your mutual desire to get fit.
Sit-up pass
Both of you must lie on your back with your knees bent and your feet facing one another flat on the floor. The medicine ball is then held stretched aloft by you. Now simultaneously complete a sit-up and pass the ball to each other, then lower back to the floor. Your partner would do it the same way and pass it back to you.
Push up and cross high five
This is a fun way to make pushups engaging. For this, you and your partner should get on the floor facing each other. Take the position of a push-up with just your palms and toes touching the floor. Do a pushup together and then give a high five to each other. Make sure to match each other's energy. Then repeat this again.
Cross-jump lunges
Cross-jump lunges are a great way to incorporate cardio into your workout. To do this, face each other. Now both of you should go deeper into the lunge position by holding each other's hands, the way you go for an arm wrestle. Then swap the sides. Remember to be quick while doing this exercise.
Pistol squat
The pistol squat is all about support, balance, and strength. The pistol squat is when you squat with one leg keeping the other leg straight in the air. Partners should stand offset from one another with their right shoulders in line. Right hands should be clasped together. Using one another as balance, both of you should perform a pistol squat simultaneously. Then swap sides.
Plank with a clap
Assume a high plank stance facing each other with around two feet distance between your hands. Each partner should bring up their right hand, slap it against their partner's, then put it back down. Continue alternating by doing the same with your left hand. You can gradually increase the time you are in plank as you get comfortable with it.
