So, we’ve often heard it’s easier to exercise with a group or partner rather than alone. Well, there is plenty of real data that suggests this isn’t just a preference, but actually BOOSTS performance. It’s interesting how our internal voice and preferences often have a sourced scientific reason for “WHY.”

On the top of exercising in groups, this BlueZones.com article states:

"After warming up either synchronously or non-synchronously in pairs, we had athletes perform a strenuous sprint test on their own. On average, athletes who warmed up in sync with others were nearly seven seconds faster – a competitively meaningful increase in performance for a test that usually takes about four minutes. This result provides a basis for the wisdom that a highly bonded team is a better performing team."
