Sports Trackers doing workouts with friends
Friends can motivate you to gain your best.

A study published in scientific journal Nature Communications found that friends have a major influence on a person’s exercise routine. The study also found that not only are we inspired by our friends to get out and exercise, but we also display our competitive streak by wanting to outrun their performance, writes Independent.

Have you experienced that when your friend share their inspiration of starting a gym or running activity or trying completely new sports your motivation and curiosity increases. You get that extra motivation when you see that your friend hits her goals and want to try the same. Or you find out that walking or cycling is more meaningful with a friend.
