8 Super-Fit Celebrity Couples Who Work Out Together (& Look Good Doing It)

If exercising with your partner sounds like a sweaty disaster or a fight waiting to happen (did they need to tell you your squat form was off?), maybe these celebrity couples who work out together can change your mind. There are lots of perks (we swear). It’s a great way to spend time with your partner in a different setting — one that gives you a playfully competitive outlet plus an opportunity to encourage each other. And nothing brings you together like pushing each other through those last few reps (and commiserating afterward, of course).

It certainly works for these celeb couples. Take Kourtney Kardashian and Travis Barker, who were workout buddies before they became husband and wife and have kept up their healthy couple ways after tying the knot. Then there’s Victoria Beckham, who posts shirtless thirst traps of her former soccer star husband during their workouts, while Gabrielle Union says Dwyane Wade’s six-pack is her motivation. We’re not saying every couple that sweats together stays together (looking at you, Jennifer Lopez and Alex Rodriguez), but it seems to work for some. “It’s our own private time before the house wakes up to love on each other and love on ourselves,” Union wrote on Instagram of her workouts with Wade. “Intimacy can take many forms.” We second that — and would like to add, sweaty can be sexy too! These celeb couples who work out together definitely prove it.
