Stronger Together
Working out is hard, but two Franklin Lakes friends train together to make it easier.
How are your fitness resolutions going? If you’ve already hit the proverbial wall while trying to get back into shape, try working out with a partner. Franklin Lakes’ Ty Franco stays in tip-top shape by working out with his friend, Shannon Shortway. Franco posted this video of him and Shortway doing a functional strength session that supports physique goals and real-world strength.
“It was very much a team energy workout where we pushed each other while keeping it fun,” says Franco. “Working out with a partner has huge benefits. It builds accountability, improves consistency and usually increases intensity in a positive way because you naturally encourage one another. It also makes fitness more social and sustainable, which is key for long term results.” It looks like fun too!
