Training Alone or With a Gym Buddy?
Training Alone or With a Gym Buddy?
4.Been lifting solo for years, but thinking about switching it up. Do partners help you push harder or do they just slow things down?
Re: Training Alone or With a Gym Buddy?
I train better alone. No waiting around, no distractions, just get in and get the work done.
Re: Training Alone or With a Gym Buddy?
A good partner helps a lot, but only if you’re on the same page. Bad partners ruin workouts fast.
Re: Training Alone or With a Gym Buddy?
Heavy days like bench or squats are better with a partner. Everything else I prefer solo.
Re: Training Alone or With a Gym Buddy?
I’ve done both. Partner helps with motivation, but solo training keeps my focus sharper.
Re: Training Alone or With a Gym Buddy?
Most people say they want a partner, but then schedules never line up. Solo is more consistent.
Re: Training Alone or With a Gym Buddy?
Training partners are great when they’re serious. If not, it turns into more talking than lifting.
Re: Training Alone or With a Gym Buddy?
Sounds like it really comes down to the person. A solid partner could help, but solo training still seems hard to beat for consistency and focus.
