What do you prefer: training solo or with a partner?
« on: February 18, 2011, 08:35:43 AM »
I always trained alone, and just asked for the occasional spot when required.  But the last couple of years (since i've been married), I've been going to the gym with my wife (we met in a gym) and we do some of the same exercises together.  Wouldn't train with another dude for like a full workout tho . . . not that there's anything wrong with that.  :)

What about you?  
Do you prefer to workout alone or do you have a training partner and, if so, is your training partner my mom?

Alone.

I don't like to get distracted while I look at other men working out.

I like to walk up close while men are bench pressing and as they grunt and scream out that last rep, I like to lean in, press down on their quads and say, "Squeeze it out baby, squeeze it out!"..

Once they get up, I slap their ass and say, "Strong work you animal!"..

the question is

best - slave, usually called and misunderstood as partner , especially by top BB (coleman had his slave as well as yates and haney for exa..)
2nd best - alone
shit -  partner, doesn t work, look at all the partners ending up socialising instead of working out in the gym

Solo. I can get my workout done more quickly when I am alone.  In and out with no distractions.  Plus, guys flirt with me when I am alone.  If I am training with someone—anyone—they assume we are together.  :-\

what's kinda funny is that month after month, ya see a number of the same workout buddies doing their thing together in the gym ... but you almost never see one of 'em there training alone ... so i guess if one can't make it to the gym (for whatever reason) then the other doesn't bother going either cuz it wouldn't be the same without their pal there.  i guess some go to the gym to train and for others spending quality social time with their chum is also a big part of it.
