Couple exercises

One of the best tips to transform exercising into something more interesting is to do it with someone. ** Here we give you 5 of the best exercises as a couple so that you can convince your partner or a friend to live healthier 🙂

• ** Wheelbarrow –** Person A gets into a wheelbarrow or push-up position, while person B takes it by the feet, more specifically the ankles. ** Next, person A performs a push-up and person B crouches with it, bringing their chest to the ground. ** Perform 20 repetitions and change positions.
• Shared sit-ups – Lie down in front of each other and bend your knees. Place your feet in front of each other. Put your arms behind your neck and when you go up and see each other, release them and clap your hands together.** If you prefer to make it more intense, you can hold a weight in one hand and pass it between you when you get up.
• Partner Lunges – Standing and facing forward, perform a few lunges.** The lunge consists of standing upright, simply moving one foot forward. The knee of the front leg is flexed as is the back leg. Your back knee should be bent enough to get closer to the ground. When bending, the knee of the front leg should never go beyond the ball of the foot. It is important that you keep your spine straight and maintain strength in your abdomen. When you go down, take the opportunity to high-five or pass around a weight or a bottle of water. Change the hand weight to avoid always working the same arm.
• Alternating Box Jump – ** This low-impact movement helps strengthen your legs while training your endurance. Although this movement can be done alone, doing it with a partner ensures that you both maintain proper form during the rapid hip flexion movement. Any stable surface applies. Face each other and place a box 6 to 10 inches between you. Take turns jumping on and off the box and n squat position, making sure to land softly with each jump. One lands and is immediately followed by the other. If necessary, put your hands together with your arms extended for balance.** Jump 10 to 15 times for both of you.** More difficult: Each person hold a dumbbell in both hands when doing this exercise.
• **Squat with a rotating pass – ** Stand back to back and lower yourself into a squat with your thighs parallel to the floor. Maintain this position throughout the exercise. Hold a medicine ball at your chest and twist your torso. The ball should come down in your hands from the top right side down. Give the ball to your partner on the lower left side (next to your hip). Your partner must turn to the right to take the ball and then quickly pass it over the left side, so you can receive it once again on your right side. Repeat for about 8 to 12 repetitions in one direction, then change directions. With this we assure you that you will feel better, you will regain your health and you will also have fun 🙂
