Couples who workout together are more consistent with workouts Print E-mail
bike_riding_001bike_riding_014Couples can motivate each other and often couples working out together can be pleasantly compatible and also nurturing and supportive which can lead to faster chances of success. This is definitely the case with Ryan and Denise, a newlywed Houston Area couple learning how to help each other feel strong with an overall exercise program that burns fat (Denise wants this result) and builds muscle (Ryan wants that result) Though the two are miles apart in their workouts,  Houston Personal Trainer Melissa has designed the workouts to be done in tandem and the two clients are surprisingly compatible and are doing well with the individualized in home Houston personal training. "They are working hard in the workouts and even more importantly, they are making necessary changes in their normal eating habits," said Melissa.  The meals are fun to plan and they are enjoying cooking as a couple instead of spending all their money and time eating out. Plus eating at home is usually more nutritious and the food is more varied. Ryan works surveying outdoors and is usually very hot and tired so eating can be an effort. By making his meals super simple and calorie dense, he has been able to add ten pounds of body mass in a very short amount of time. Denise  has begun to learn how to pay attention to portion sizes, because she has learned she does not need as much food as she originally used to eat when she was more active. Now that she is doing a sit-down job, it is harder for her to burn off the extra calories so she is becoming very strict about doing enough exercise and watching her portions. These two will be training for only a short amount of time because they have managable goals but the effort will be well worth it.
