Why You Should Exercise With Your Significant Other
Couples Who Sweat Together Stay Together
PLAY CATCH! Grab a medicine ball and do some overhead passes, feet-to-feet situp passes, and back-to- back twists with each other. All of these easy at-home workouts help build a solid core. GO FOR A RUN! If the weather is nice, the two of you can lace up and hit the pavement together. You could even make a couples playlist to listen to as you run. If the cold temperatures are preventing you from enjoying the great outdoors, head to the gym and challenge each other on side-by-side treadmills. TRY SOME ROCK CLIMBING! This is a great way to get a good workout while simultaneously building trust with your partner. Most rock-climbing gyms offer classes in belaying, and staff members can give you tips to improve your form. Sign up to work with an instructor and test your personal limits together.
Each Valentine’s Day, people all over the world rush to the store to buy chocolates and all the ingredients necessary to whip up a romantic dinner for two. Unfortunately, these calorie-laden holiday traditions can undermine the fitness resolutions you made just six weeks before. Instead of throwing your goals by the wayside this February, why not make fitness a couples activity? The National Library of Medicine published a study showing that couples who focused on their health together went to the gym more often and reported feeling more connected in their relationship. These findings were corroborated by a study published in the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology. Scientists claimed that partners who exercised together reported higher levels of happiness and satisfaction in their relationship. If you and your sweetheart are looking for a romantic way to burn some calories this month, here are some great workout ideas for two.
Meet Dr. Richard Titlebaum Our New Endodontist
At Fabey Dental, we pride ourselves on providing our patients with the highest level of care and the greatest number of treatment options. To achieve this goal, we often enlist the help of specialists with advanced skills to expand the scope of our practice. One such specialist, endodontist Dr. Richard Titlebaum, recently joined our team. We’re honored to welcome Dr. Titlebaum to the practice. With degrees from Haverford College and Harvard School of Dental Medicine, Dr. Titlebaum comes to us with the highest possible credentials. He received his certificate of endodontics fromAlbert Einstein Medical Center, where he now serves as the attending endodontic and heads a research team. Dr. Titlebaum was drawn to endodontics when he saw its potential to transform the way patients felt about their smile. “A teacher once told me, ‘Anyone can do a root canal, but not everyone can do it well,’” Dr. Titlebaum recalls. “After hearing that, I became inspired to learn everything I could about
endodontic surgery. Every procedure is different, so the work is constantly challenging.”
In addition to the stimulating, demanding nature of the work, Dr. Titlebaum values the opportunity to create marked changes in the way his patients feel about their teeth. “It’s a wonderful feeling to be able to see patients’ self-confidence improve as a result of a procedure,” he says. “To have the chance to make such an impact on people is not something I take for granted.” Outside of work, Dr. Titlebaum plays squash and ultimate frisbee, hikes, and gardens. He and his wife, Joanne, are avid travelers and have spent extensive time in Central and South America. They also love spending time with their two daughters, Jessica and Sophie, and their son, Max. Dr. Titlebaum will be in our office one day a week. We’re excited to welcome him to the Fabey Dental Team and can’t wait for you to meet him.
