Exercising with a partner is more productive

There is a new study that is out that says seniors prefer to exercise alone because it helps them with their confidence. They do not want to look at younger people who are either in shape or have a much easier time working out on the machines.
Well I understand that reasoning, studies have shown that people who either work out with a trainer or a buddy experience better results.
Obviously, when you work with a trainer, you will receive a better workout session than if you workout alone. The reason is simple, the trainer is a professional and knows what needs to be done to your body to get it back in shape. The trainer pushed you to workout properly and makes you exercise all the different areas of your body. But he or she also gives you the emotional support that is so important when a person is self-conscious about working out.
This is also why working out with a friend is even more helpful. Granted, they probably do not know as mush about health as a professional trainer does, but they will offer you emotional and physical support to help you work out to your potential. You will most likely not be self-conscious about your work out routine and your body.
Well I think it is helpful to workout alone because you will not spend a lot of time socializing, you will probably not be pushed as hard as you would with a friend of trainer. Therefore, if you want a better workout, then you had better workout
