advantages to training with a spouse

[Brodey]

what are the advantages and disadvantages to training with a spouse?
I’m currently trying to figure out what I’m supposed to do cause this new gf I am dating
is always asking me to train together. Do you do it?

 

[stevesmi]

training with anyone has more disadvantages

weight training is a solo thing. we aren't playing tennis here or a team sport

i prefer to train solo. if you train with a spouse there is too much disparity in goals

I act as a personal trainer for my wife, but generally I am through most of my workout by the time she gets to the gym and am just doing some small finish work in-between her sets.

As for me training with a partner, the only day I have a lifting partner is bench day. When you bench heavy always have a spotter. Sometimes though it is hard to find a partner that is lifting at the same weight and it does suck when you have to remove half the weight on the bar between your set and your partners set.
