Ever feel like working out can be a chore…mix it up and grab a friend! The best way to get out of a fitness rut is to have accountability. Whether you are doing a virtual class or something in a socially distanced in-person situation the buddy system can help. When you commit to a friend you are less likely to break that promise.

Other benefits of having a friend join you include:

  • More fun
  • Friendly competition
  • More likely to try a new activity

Recently the PhiloWilke Fitness Fam has been hosting weekly competitions. Not only has this been a way to increase our movement but also our camaraderie despite working remotely. The team is committed to our health and personal growth – together we are stronger.
