Today's workout was harder than expected. My two good friends ended up joining me and when we are all together, we really push each other past what we thought we were going to do. We made this workout up as we went along, which is why it is all over the place. It ended up being a great full body lift!
Not everyone enjoys having a training partner, but I definitely benefit from it. When you find the right person, they can greatly improve your sessions. They can motivate you to get your butt to the gym, spot you when you need it, push you during the lift, and help to keep you on track if you ever feel like quitting.
It is important to find the right person. Make sure you all have similar goals in mind, check to see if your schedules and preferred lifting times match, and talk about how you personally like to be motivated; some people like being yelled at, other can't stand it. Overall, make sure you are both willing to put in the hard work and willing to be serious if the other ever wants to deviate from their set goals, aka, QUIT!
So find a friend, go lift, and see if it helps you have a better workout!
