Exercise
What can you do to make exercise like jogging more enjoyable
Part 1:
The starter
Having an exercise partner makes jogging more enjoyable
I know how hugely important exercise is to our general wellness. So I used to do some jogging every day. However, I found such exercise became boring gradually and even a chore. I was not as enthusiastic as before. I once wanted to give up. Then I felt it necessary to find a way to make exercise more enjoyable again.
