I have been asked repeatedly for ways to motivate husbands, boyfriends, partner, lovers to get interested in fitness. If you're reading FitSugar, chances are high fitness is a priority for you, but here are some tactics to get your significant other to work out.
Next time you are watching TV with your honey or a friend, try this fun way to workout during the commercial break - I call it the push-up challenge. It takes at least 2 people since you switch off, but there is no reason you couldn't include more people in the challenge.
Here's how to do it:
You simply hold the plank position while your buddy does three push-ups. 
Boxing, for the ladies, is definitely "hip" right now. If you and your man want to push the envelope and your comfort zone, take a look at coed/couples boxing as a way to get physical together. You can master your left hook, your jab and your trust issues all in the ring.
Setting boundaries is an important part of any loving relationship, and rules are equally important when a couple enters the ring. 
Ok, so you and your honey decided to make a date to get out and enjoy winter this weekend. You're going snowshoeing. Cool. RSS Feed
