Do you train with your wife/girlfriend?

ad

If so, do you find it enhances your training or take away from it? How is the experience?
Mine in a complete distaster.

I do on occasion but not regularly. We have very different routines...although my wife is in great shape.

I have done this in the past but we we're just in the same building together. She used to do her thing, I'd do mine till we went in the steam rooms and jacuzzi that is.

I actually think it would of been a pain in the ass, like giving someone driving lessons. I generally prefer training by myself anyway.

Miss that gym, it's huge with everything you could imagine, to far away tho.

It would be kinda hot tho if you did lol

Agreed, I was thinking, how unfair it was of her to burst my "fantasy bubble" like that.

We train together most of the time or at least train near each other. This is her first year so she’s had a lot to learn as far as form, reps, sets and just understanding to push her self.

I prefer it, we do our own thing and don't necessarily train together. What better way to get her all fired up than banging weights lol and getting a naaaaasty pump on

We go together, but do our own thing. Lift separately and cardio together

In the beggining it feels like it takes away but when you’re both really into it it enhances it if that makes sense

Pale's picture

We train near each other but not together. The only exception would be if we were on the treadmills or Hiit mills. We tried training together and it just don't work

I tried to train the first two wives. Didnt work very well. So I found one already trained

We go to the gym together. We go and do our own things while we’re there and then leave together. Seems to work well for us.

I do! I actually enjoy 99% of it. Occasionally, if I look at her funny, she gets pissed haha. We both take it seriously, but she a little more so.

It is nice in the case we need a spotter, we can use each other. Also, for the bigger lifts, she won’t go heavy unless I am right there. So she truly benefits from my presence.

Also, the flirting factor. She likes when other girls talk to me or watch me lift. Win win all around. Unless of course I look at her funny.

I train in my basement. Sometimes she’s down there with me. We keep to ourselves tho. Worst case scenario she’s gotta wait for the squat rack and does her dumbbell work while I’m in there. I won’t wait for the rack in my own gym. Lol

Mostly we try to go separately so we’re not in each other’s way.

Now that is the best option

Fuck no the gym is my time my relief time from the family it’s all I have left I can do alone I can’t even shit without someone knocking on the door asking me to fix something or tell them where something is

Bill G's picture

I figured out how to get them to quit doing that...

333's picture

How’s that

Bill G's picture

I just leave the door open. Keeps them from knocking

Another reason to leave the door open

I found that it takes away my mind muscle connection along with Intensity, it's hard for me to stay "dialed in" because I constantly have to be concerned with my girl...I also thought I would really enjoy it but I actually dont...0lus the huge fluctuation in weight we have to add ot take off between sets....having to pause my music constantly....having to keep my eyes down, lol....I love my girl but the gym is my time.... stay healthy and stay blessed my brothers!!!

Totika's picture

Those are the facts why I said my experience with her at the gym is a disaster loool

Bulkdaddy's picture

Just depends. If I get accused of looking at other girls. I get pissed.

Isn't getting pissed a motivator for a good work out ?

Lol I can imagine it has the ability to ruin a training session in many ways, even training at home I use to go ape shit if a girlfriend came in whilst I was mid set and I'd already said not to interrupt me - I use to find it completely off putting. That was without steroids lmao
