friend or foe?

Friend or Foe?

 

We are talking about workout partners. Some motivate each other, one may be more of the leader than the other, there are those that let each other give up to easily, or they are there more for conversation than the workout. We have seen them all and we can pick them out.  

So, is your workout partner your friend or foe? Don’t get me wrong, you obviously like them. Otherwise you wouldn’t be so willing to let them see you sweat, spit and grunt. Be honest, we all do it and then some. It becomes a relationship with your workout partner. So maybe I need to word it this way, is your workout partner a friend or foe to your workout??  

Does your workout partner influence your performance? Do they motivate you or let you give in? Do they know when to push or when to say “it’s okay to take it easy”? How about, do they know when to talk or just to listen? Do they know your goals or do you have the same goals? When you’re done, do you feel like you accomplished something or do you need more?  

Let me ask again. Is your workout partner your friend or foe?
