Are you lacking true motivation? Then here\u2019s what you need \u2013 a workout partner! And ladies, trust us, there\u2019s no one better to cheer you on than your BFF! Make your everyday workout sessions a little more effective and a lot more fun by simply sweating it out with your bestie! So, take a look at this routine and get started!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 18pt; color: #de2a60;\">\u2018I\u2019ve always got your back\u2019 ball squats:<\/span><br \/>\nAll you need for this routine is a Swiss ball and your bestie. Stand back to back with each other, plant your feet firmly on the ground and place the ball between your backs. Now, comes the tough part, squat down for 20 seconds and then resume your standing position \u2013 all while keeping the ball steady! Do this for 10 reps at least!<\/p>\n<p><img class=\"aligncenter wp-image-3391\" src=\"http:\/\/www.zivame.com\/blog\/v1\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/shutterstock_551448904-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"700\" height=\"467\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #de2a60; font-size: 18pt;\">Plank while you chat:<\/span><br \/>\nWe know, it\u2019s no fun exercising with your back turned on your buddy! How about doing some side-by-side planks? Get into position with your forearms parallel to the ground and your legs stretched out. This way you get in a few good moments of gossip while strengthening your body!<\/p>\n<p><img class=\"aligncenter wp-image-3390\" src=\"http:\/\/www.zivame.com\/blog\/v1\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/shutterstock_443889763-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"700\" height=\"467\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 18pt; color: #de2a60;\">Even a glute bridge can\u2019t keep you apart:<\/span><br \/>\nThis one\u2019s easy! Lie down on your back with your legs close together &amp; make sure you and you\u2019re bestie are on opposite sides, with feet touching! Now, lift your hips upward, making an arch of your body and squeeze your glutes. This way you get the support you need and don\u2019t feel awkward about lifting your rear high up! Soon, you and BFF will be twinning with toned abs!<\/p>\n<p><img class=\"aligncenter wp-image-3385\" src=\"http:\/\/www.zivame.com\/blog\/v1\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/ex3-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"700\" height=\"394\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 18pt; color: #de2a60;\">You pull-up, I push-up:<\/span><br \/>\nBefore your exercise routine comes to an end, maximize all that your workout partner has to offer! Get into a standard push-up position, while your buddy stands behind and lifts your legs up by the ankles. Now try to do at least 10 push-ups, while she uses your ankles as an anchor to bend down low, exercise those muscles and stand back up!<\/p>\n<p><img class=\"aligncenter wp-image-3386\" src=\"http:\/\/www.zivame.com\/blog\/v1\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/ex4-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"700\" height=\"394\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #de2a60; font-size: 18pt;\">Skip together:<\/span><br \/>\nWrap up the workout with a few minutes of skipping! Get those colourful ropes out and jump together \u2018cos skipping is a great full-body workout. You could even stand facing one another and do a double skipping loop. Just be careful not to trip over and put an end to your bestie-workout plan!<\/p>\n<p><img class=\"aligncenter wp-image-3392\" src=\"http:\/\/www.zivame.com\/blog\/v1\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/shutterstock_150677258-1-3.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"700\" height=\"573\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Don\u2019t forget to wear a good <a href=\"https:\/\/www.zivame.com\/activewear\/sports-bra.html\">sports bra<\/a> while doing these exercises. \u2018Cos rigorous workouts call for supportive bras and supportive friends!<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"z-button solid center  \"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.zivame.com\/zelocity\/sports-bra.html\"  target=\"_blank\" >See Sports Bras<\/a><\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Is your daily workout getting boring?
