Wicker and Wilde find it hard to commit to a lot of things... but according to a new survey, 1 in 5 of us who work out at least once a week say it’s tougher to commit to a workout routine than a significant other!

The poll about finding your perfect match in love, fitness and beyond finds:


- Over the last 10 years, people have tried around five different workout regimens and had four different, serious partners.

- More than two-thirds (68%) are likely to stick to a fitness routine that doesn’t necessarily work for them just because it’s comfortable.

- That’s more than the 53% of respondents who say they’re likely to stay with the wrong partner for the same reason.

- When asked to define what makes a “perfect match,” 66% say it’s something or someone that helps them reach their goals.

- For others, it’s something or someone that gives them warm, fuzzy feelings (61%), or someone or something that pushes them to be the best version of themselves (47%).

- The average American has found four perfect matches, including their best friend (46%), therapist or psychiatrist (41%), partner (41%), doctor (40%) and even a gym (32%).

- Nearly half (45%) have found their perfect workout, while 24% are still on the search for it.

- The top deal breakers for starting a new romantic relationship are the amount of money they’d have to spend on a partner (52%), where they live (52%) and how much time they’d need to devote to them (40%). It turns out, those same three things are the top deal breakers for starting a new fitness routine.

- While 20% struggle more with committing to a fitness routine at first, 22% have a harder time letting go when it’s time to change up their workouts.

Rebecca has found the perfect partner for sure.....but still struggling to stick to the workout routine, but it IS a New Year! What about YOU? Have you found your perfect partner yet? Or your perfect workout? What is it?
