These programs can include:
Resistance training
Cardiovascular workouts
Interval

Benefits
There are several benefits to partner training:
- Motivation – Both parties seem to motivate each other to keep the scheduled appointments. It is also a stimulus to keep at it and encouragement to reach goals.
- Enjoyment – In addition to the workout you have the opportunity to converse and exchange ideas. The time seems to pass quicker with company.
- Price – Splitting the cost gives you the benefits of a personal trainer at a much lower cost.
- Someone to Spot for You – Working out with someone you are familiar with has the advantage of that other person being able to spot for you on some weight exercises. It also helps you maintain good form and to achieve greater results.
- Burn More Calories – Studies have shown that people who workout with a friend burn about 40 more calories per session than those who work alone.
There is also a friendly competitiveness that seems to arise that encourages the partners to work out regularly and more effectively.
