Tip #19 Find a Workout Buddy

It makes perfect sense. Find a friend to work out with and you'll stick to your goal to take better care of your body. A friend, a family member, a child who counts on you, a personal trainer, or a neighbor-any of these people can help you work out consistently, benefiting both you and your buddy because you both get to reap the payoff of good old-fashioned exercise.
Today, schedule a thirty- to sixty minute workout with a workout buddy-someone you can count on. Make a commitment to go for a walk. a run, or a bike ride, to play a game of tennis or other sport, or go try an in-home aerobics video game together. The exercise will be more fun, time will go by more quickly, and you'll  likely work more effectively. More important, you'll keep your commitment to yourself to get at least thirty minutes of heart-pumping exercise that body desperately needs today.
