I would like to find a fitness buddy for strength training. How do you suggest setting goals? Any suggestions on finding the buddy?

I currently have a nutritionist and a personal trainer. They’re not in direct contact with each other but i’m constantly keeping them updated on what the other is telling me. I started off by doing a minimum of 30 minutes of cardio every day for a week and a half to get my body in ready. Then I dropped my cardio down to 20 and added squats, push ups, and pull ups. I hope this helps.

I currently have two friends who instead of going out to get pizza we have a salad and then go work out.

6 days a week I meet various friends to go swim , or take a fitness class together. One friend swims with me another friend will take a spin class with me another friend will go for a walk at the beach and so on, one of my secrets to taking weight off and keeping it off make my activity with friends center around being physically active and enjoying each other’s company at the same time and challenge each other and ourselves.

I do this once a week we go for a long walk instead of sitting in or going out for dinner.

My co-worker was informed by her doctor she needs to lose 20 lbs. She has confesed to HATE exercise and have no time for it. I offered to help make it fun and fit it in! We meet everyday and have a “walking lunch”. It is so much fun. We chat (for mental health) and walk (for physical health)30 minutes and go on to face our day!

I try to walk everyday and have been looking for a partener. I try to get fresh produce from local farmers market with friends on Saturdys and then we walk around the downtown.
