working out with your significant other

If you don’t glisten, you obviously sweat. For me, it’s like Niagara Falls. I work out hard, so the sweat just keeps on coming. Not very attractive. Also, due to the fact I’m German/Scottish, I acquire a lovely ruddy complexion. Translation? My face turns beet-red almost as soon as I start a routine. Hell, I could be on a stationary bike, but I’ll still look like a porous tomato.
If you get tired, you feel as if you can’t take a rest; you don’t want to look like a weakling!
If you sweat as much as I do, you might start worrying about stinking up the workout room; God forbid your partner starts to wrinkle up his/her nose and back away a few steps. F%@#! Screw this, let’s get ice cream.
 

PRO

 Talk about sexually charged. Whether it’s running or doing circuit training, a work out with your significant other can lead to the shower, the bedroom, hopefully not to an awkward and undeniably uncomfortable position on dumbbells, but who knows? 

You’re also way more likely to work out harder; you want to impress him/her. Guys—you know you want to flex post-bicep reps; girls—show him you can keep up and, while you’re at it, taunt him with those flat abs.

If you’re not keen on working out in general, or you need motivation to exercise, working out with your lover can be both sensual and productive.
