With some parts of the world opening up again, Garry Y. Itkin shares his insights on getting other people into fitness with you.

First off, Garry Y. Itkin mentions that it’s imperative when looking for people to work out with you that you guys share some similarities.

While it’s always great to meet people who love fitness, when looking for a workout partner, it’s important that he or she have the same mindset and goals as you. It’s hard to work out with someone who’s bulking up if you’re routine is geared towards weight loss. It’s also next to impossible to be with someone who’s way too serious about lifting when you’re easy-going and you just want to have fun, or vice-versa.

Also, look for people with the same level of commitment as you. It’s very frustrating to depend on someone who isn’t really into fitness, Garry Y. Itkin adds. However, when do you find your perfect workout match, working out will be as much of a joy as anything else you do in life.
