yes! i always do better with a workout buddy! I joined a different gym so i could work out with a friend! It sounds silly, but I have also done a weight loss contract before. We promised to work out 20 min a day (anything would count as long as you were moving, like just going for a walk) and if we missed a day, both of us had to do an extra 20 minutes. we did it for a month. it worked!
