Couples come together because they like the way the other person makes them feel. They stay together because they have common goals and interests --these goals and interests can be family, religion, sex, social life, or sports(among other things). When a couple has health in common, they appreciate and support each other's exercise and sport routines as well as healthy diets. This is why taking up a sport with your honey is good for the relationship -- and yourself at the same time.

Taking tennis lessons, golf lessons or even learning to tango (which can be very energetic and requires discipline and stamina) can be a great Saturday morning date or a Saturday night date. It's also something that a couple can use to expand their social circles, and the support of community -- whether it's family, neighbors, or friends -- is important to a relationship.

4 Tips for Being a Good Sport
Take up one or more sports on a casual basis. Some people resist sports because they resist the scheduling that is so inherent in the rest of their lives. If sports are something that can be done at the drop of a hat, it takes the pressure of scheduling tee time, off. Keep a few tennis rackets in the closet, and know your club times or your public court hours. Keep yoga mats in your car trunk. Keep running shoes nearby.
Make a date night (or day) out of a new sport. If you sign up for a class together, you won't be able to let it slide, the way other things get shelved because you're just "too busy". Some couples need and like the scheduling.
Gift a sport! Give your honey a gift certificate to a spa, gym, or for six or 12 lessons for a particular sport for their birthday, Mother's Day, Father's Day, Christmas, Hanukkah, Easter -- or any other day you'd give a gift.
