We want to give you eight reasons why you should bring a friend, colleague, or partner to Velocity for a workout. But more on that later. Exercising with a buddy makes the whole workout more interesting. You can have a good laugh and encourage each other. At Velocity you can compete with the leaderboard in Veloburn, try to find the beat together in Velobeat, or complete the exercise at the same pace in Power.
Afterward, you can go to Roots for lunch or catch up in the lobby. There is nothing better than being able to share goals and successes with someone, right? You suffered together, you sweat together, and in the end, you achieved your individual goals together. Find a community that shares your interests, because the social aspect of sports is often underestimated.
The interactions in the lobby and locker rooms are all part of the experience. Joining a group class can be a great way to meet new people, get to know them better, and make new friends. You may just find an activity you love, one that feels more like fun and less like a workout. Exercising should be fun and there are so many great and challenging workouts that you might never try on your own. Also working out with a partner can produce a motivation gain that allows you to take your workouts up a notch.
You always have help at hand if anything goes wrong, when you exercise with a buddy. Whether during strength training, because trying to lift weights solo at the gym can lead to injuries. Working out with a friend makes your workout time just a little safer having a trusted friend with you. Sometimes you just want to switch off from work or stress at home and have some interactions with other people than your colleagues, partners, or perhaps, kids.
To give you even more incentive to do a workout with a friend we have a b ring-a-friend for free promotion. For the whole month of July, you can bring a first-time friend for free in one of our three concepts in any of our three studios.
