Whether you’re on your second date or celebrating your 22nd anniversary, one thing is true: Relationships require work (but not necessarily the kind you might expect). As it turns out, couples that exercise together strengthen more than their muscles—they also strengthen their romantic connection.

“Your endorphin and pheromone levels are at their highest after a workout,” says Belisa Vranich, a clinical psychologist and author of Get a Grip: Your Two-Week Mental Makeover. These are the feel-good hormones linked to arousal and attraction—and they can have a powerful effect on you and your partner. “They automatically make you like the person you’re with even more, regardless of whether you’re a happy new couple or on the brink of a breakup,” she explained.

It is challenging to workout with your partner at the gym, but not on the Power Plate. A Power Plate workout is perfect for beginners, elite athletes and everyone in between. Whether you’re looking to build trust, improve communication, up the intensity, establish more intimacy, or just do something different this Valentine’s day, we’ve got you covered!

Find a location near you that offers powerPASS—one free Power Plate session for new clients—and grab your partner for a fun and different workout experience.
