There are always temptations – skipping a workout - cocktail parties and large social gatherings centered on food – can lead you down the path of weight gain, irritability and inactivity during the cold, dark winter months. To overcome these temptations and stay focused on consistently working out and eating healthy during the holidays, you may need to enlist the help of a workout buddy. A workout buddy can help keep you motivated, dedicated and encouraged as you venture through the journey of living a healthy and fit lifestyle during the holidays and beyond.
Buddy’s Bring Accountability
 It’s not just about you when
you work out with a buddy. It’s about being there for your partner, showing up
every workout session to give your best effort, and setting a good example of
being dedicated to you and your partner’s workout success. It’s a lot harder to
skip your 6 a.m. workout if you know you have a workout partner waiting for you
at the gym to take a class together or someone is relying on you to show up at
a local trailhead for an early morning run. It’s also a lot more difficult to
“phone in your workout” by just going through the motions and not giving your
all when you have a workout buddy beside you who is expending their time and
energy to workout with you and give their best. A buddy is an essential
resource to help keep you on track, on time and on point during your workouts.

Buddy’s Bring Camaraderie 
Working out with a buddy can be
a fun adventure that changes with each workout. By working out side-by-side day
in and day out, you naturally will begin to build a sense of community, friendship
and pride from maintaining a consistent workout schedule together,
accomplishing physical and mental goals together, and living by example as to
what it means to be fit and healthy. Your workout buddy can quickly become more
than just someone to count your push ups or hold your feet during sit ups. Your
workout buddy may become a lifelong fitness teammate and friend. 
Buddy’s Bring Motivation
Whether you are a competitive
person in nature or not, working out with a buddy can improve your health and
fitness levels beyond what you could do alone. Buddies can help push you out of
your comfort zone by encouraging you to try a new adventure, they can help
increase your confidence in how you look and feel about your body by motivating
you to perform at levels you never thought possible, and they can celebrate
with you after a strenuous workout session that leaves you sweating and feeling
good about your accomplishments.
