How do I find a workout buddy?

[Anonymous]

I've been trying to find a workout buddy for a few weeks but have has little luck. Any tips?

I've seen many people putting up requests that they're looking for a workout buddy, even going so far so as to specify which gyms/locales, which activities, rough schedules, etc. on FB and even craigslist.

Ask all of your friends if they'd like to set up a workout routine with you, where you guys could motivate each other to get fit throughout the year and make working out to be actual fun as you could make it a bit of a social hour as well.

Why do you need one? If you workout is dependent on someone else it will never last. That said Meetup has workout groups as do most high end running stores and better gyms.

Join a group fitness class! You could even sign up for a free trial class in your area to see how you like it before committing.

It depends on what your fitness goals are--if you have friends with similar goals it's easy but if you are wanting to be an "elite" athlete or something out of the norm it can be a bit more challenging...

If you want to shoot me a message I can help you out with a few connection websites for sports... they have members from virtually everywhere

Or other ideas to find someone
