4. Cheat days become dates to look forward to.
It’s hard enough being a foodie, but being a foodie AND health-conscious at the same time? That’s some pretty strong willpower right there to stick to your diet. Cheat days become even more exciting for both of you than the usual dinner dates for other couples, because chances are, you’ve been saving up and working out hard enough so you can enjoy this one day where you can eat your heart out (but still watching out for portions). This is most likely a restaurant you’ve had planned for months that you even had reservations made a long time ago. And to make this come true? That’s even more exciting than the actual food both of you will be eating. And it will be a night to remember… come the next day when you have to work out again.

3. You learn to celebrate the littlest of achievements and milestones.
Whether it’s a longer distance or more reps pulled in, every little progress counts in fitness! Both of you know how much this means, and so each milestone is something not to be taken for granted. You can bet that this also translates to your relationship– every little effort counts and is appreciated.

2. You both enjoy the benefit of having a hot partner!
You’ve seen the photo of Erwan Heussaff bench pressing Anne Curtis, right? Can someone say #RelationshipGoals? Even if your goals for working out are less about vanity and more health-related (say, jumpstarting into an overall healthier lifestyle to reduce disease risk), there are definitely bound to be some side benefits in the physical department! Plus, there’s nothing hotter than seeing your babe with their game face on as they keep themselves stronger every day.

1. Spending a long, happy life together is bright and clear in your future.
By this time, fitness is no longer just a hot fad to follow because everyone’s doing it and bikini season is coming up, it’s now become a lifestyle for a healthier you. There’s a reason why doctors have been recommending regular exercise for years: it’s good for you and prevents a lot of diseases! Less sick times means less quality time wasted, and a longer and fuller life together. Like the sound of that? The future seems bright for you lovestruck fitness junkies.
