After what seems to be the longest celebrity pregnancy in history (atleast to me haha) Jessica Simpson has finally given birth to a healthy baby girl! I guess it seemed like such a long pregnancy because she went on denying it for so long! She posted a nice message to her fans on her website:

Friday Fitspiration: Choosing a workout buddy

Working out isn't always fun and it's certainly not easy. You may choose to workout with a friend for moral support. Here are some tips to choosing your workout buddy wisely:

  1. Choose someone with similar athletic ability. You want to make sure that your buddy isn't holding you back. If you are a runner and your partner has a hard time walking a mile then your partnership is not going to work out. You are going to feel held back and although your partner will be getting that extra push from you, they will feel discouraged that they cannot keep up
  2. Find someone who is dependable. Making sure your schedules are somewhat in sync is very important. Also, if you have someone who misses workouts, you are more likely to skip out as well.
  3. Comparable goals. You don't have to have the exact same goals as your buddy. However, they should be similar. If you are trying to gain muscle mass and your buddy is trying to lose 20 pounds,  you won't be doing the same exercises in the gym and will be losing some of that motivation from your buddy.
  4. Honesty is the key. It's great to have someone cheering you on. It's even better to have someone who is honest with you. For example, if you are being lazy and not pushing yourself on the treadmill, your workout buddy might let you know that you need to turn up the intensity.
Hope these tips help! Choose your buddy wisely. Don't let anyone interfere with your goals!
