Core Exercises with your partner: Cross Plank Jumps

This exercise is good not only for your core but also has cardio in it. It’s quite simple to do actually, and all you need is a matt.

This exercise can easily be considered as a full body workout as you both will be building your core strength but also get to work on your upper body, lower body and getting a good cardio workout too!
Lower Body Workout: Cross Body Lunges

So, we all are familiar with lunges, right? But we are here to tell you it can be fun to do them with your partners. So, by facing one another begin doing lunges the best way you know how, however as you go down you can always hold on to your partners hand for support. To make it even more fun and also to turn it into a more challenging workout, come up with a slight jump and switch your legs when you do so. Of course, the second variation can be achieved only gradually and with practice. You need perfect hand and feet coordination to not fall down or trip! So, we understand if you are a little hesitant to do this variation of the exercise!
Nevertheless, this is an excellent exercise for your legs, your glutes and your calves.
Upper Body Exercises: Plank Claps
For this exercise you and your partner both need to form a plan position, facing one another and start doing pushups. However, after every pushup, extend one of your hands and clap with your partner. Then repeat by doing another pushup but extend the other arm as before and clap with that with your partner. This exercise is excellent for your core, your upper body and also your legs!

These are just some of the exercises you can do with your partner. Not only will this help you find activities you and your partner both can enjoy, but this is a healthy alternative to just sitting and watching Netflix. If you are a working couple, then try to do at least one of these exercises even if it is just a way to turn away from your computer screens! Make the most out of this pandemic and try to spend as much quality time with your partners as possible!
