]]>On one hand, you really want to find a workout buddy who you’re comfortable with. Being able to have fun with them, talk with them, and converse with them can make your workouts that much more enjoyable.
However, it can be a little bit of a dangerous if you only choose your best friend to work out with you. You need to ensure that this friends wants to grow as much as you.

Remember that you want them to hold you accountable for keeping up your routine, so it’s crucial that this friend is someone who’ll do that. Make it clear to them from the start that this is your mindset, and if you sense that it’s not something they can do, you need to find a friend who can do it instead.

]]>The first thing you should do is prove yourself as a workout buddy. Your job right now is to check in on your friend and find out why they’re losing motivation. You need to do everything in your power to bring them up and get back on track. Listen to their worries and doubts, and if their heart is still in it somewhere, you may be able to get them back into it.
However, if for whatever reason you find that your workout buddy simply doesn’t want to continue, you need to let them go. You need to tell them politely that you need to move on, because your goals are clearly different from theirs. If they’re truly your “buddy”, they’ll understand. But ultimately, a healthy break might be in order.

]]>If you’re on a basketball team, let’s say, you don’t just have one workout buddy holding you accountable for your actions. You have a legitimate team of friends pushing you to your limit (not to mention a coach, if this is a serious team). This is why athletes who are part of a squad generally are able to stay fit. It’s also why they form such strong bonds—because they help one another grow.
Not only is this idea of a workout buddy expanded on a physical level, but it’s also on an emotional level too. When you’re on a team with others, you experience losses and wins together, and thus it becomes easier to trust them as your “workout buddies”. You know they have your back, and therefore you’re willing to come through for them even when you’re not in the mood.
