A 2015 Michigan State University study showed that working out with buddies increases your motivation.<\/p>\n

This was no surprise to me or any other hardcore gym rat.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s that \u201cesprit de corps\u201d in the gym that makes it fun.<\/p>\n

Or knowing that your training partner will be there waiting for you… primed and ready to toss around some heavy iron that gets your ass off the couch and to the gym.<\/p>\n

But what if you don\u2019t have a workout buddy?<\/p>\n

No problem.<\/p>\n

Studies show that \u201cvirtual partners\u201d can be almost as effective as real partners.<\/p>\n

And nowadays, there\u2019s an app for stuff like that.<\/p>\n

A lot of workout apps include functions that keep you accountable to your virtual workout buddies.<\/p>\n

They also let you track your workout data and share it with your group of virtual workout buddies.<\/p>\n

Or publicly humiliate them if they\u2019re slacking off.<\/p>\n

One I wish I had thought of is \u201cZombies, Run!\u201d<\/p>\n

It puts you in the middle of the zombie apocalypse… and gives you 30 different \u201cmissions\u201d to complete.<\/p>\n

This is MUCH better than a boring old workout. If you don\u2019t complete your mission, you\u2019re eaten by frickin\u2019 ZOMBIES for cryin\u2019 out loud.<\/p>\n

If THAT isn\u2019t motivation I don\u2019t know WHAT is.<\/p>\n

Listen, dear amigo…<\/p>\n

I\u2019ve been a gym rat for 36 years now.<\/p>\n

And I can tell you THIS from darn near 4 DECADES of \u201ciron experience\u201d:<\/p>\n

It\u2019s REALLY tough going tossing around the iron…<\/p>\n

…getting in your cardio…<\/p>\n

…staying disciplined and consistent with your diet…<\/p>\n

…and all the other stuff we have to do to get healthy and look good nekkid…<\/p>\n

And it\u2019s EXPONENTIALLY tough trying to do it solo.<\/p>\n

You simply MUST have a workout buddy.<\/p>\n

Or most likely you\u2019re gonna fail.<\/p>\n

And if you think THAT\u2019S hard…<\/p>\n

…it\u2019s a THOUSAND times harder trying to start and build your online business by yourself.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s CRUCIAL you have an \u201centrepreneur buddy.\u201d<\/p>\n

In fact… my 30 years experience in this world has proven to me you\u2019ve got a 99% chance of failing if you try to go it alone.<\/p>\n

Look… this \u201cbootstrap entrepreneur\u201d stuff is hard enough as is.<\/p>\n

Don\u2019t make it harder… or darn near IMPOSSIBLE… trying to do it alone.<\/p>\n

Click here and let me be your guide<\/a>…<\/p>\n

All the best,
\nDoberman Dan<\/p>\n\"dobedansig\"<\/a>\n
