I'm also able to get through my workout faster if there's nobody else there to switch off with or chat with. I met Dave at the gym for a while but we didn't really work out together so much as talk as we both did our own workouts. He moved to Newark so he goes to a different gym now.<BR/><BR/>Ricky and I went to the gym together for a while a couple/few years ago but we weren't great partners because while at first we didn't want to let the other person down by not showing up, we got over that pretty quickly.Jacksonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09965209456771434418noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3843262.post-64363335570275046992009-01-29T12:16:00.000-08:002009-01-29T12:16:00.000-08:00I guess it depends on how a person is wired but fo...I guess it depends on how a person is wired but for me having dependable work out buddies makes it a million times easier to do a real work out. There is no way I would finish a single hard work out or continue regular exercise if I didn't have people with me.<BR/><BR/>I am fortunate to have supportive and affirming buddies which is slightly more important than dependable buddies.<BR/><BR/>As for the benefits of working out... normally when I drop Bev (six year old niece) off Sunday nights she is passed out. I would carry her from the car to her Grandpa and after two weeks it was appreciably (sp?) easier and being able to carry her... well I'm sure Jackson understands. It is about as good as it gets.Mikey Ghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04242907043508117820noreply@blogger.com
