Motivating Yourself and Others to Go to the Gym in Spanish
Going to the gym regularly requires self-motivation. When that wavers, it helps to have friends or partners who can provide encouragement and accountability. Here are some key Spanish phrases and vocabulary to inspire yourself or others to stay consistent with fitness goals.
Asking Someone If They Want Go to the Gym
The most direct way is to simply ask "¿Quieres ir al gimnasio?" or "Do you want to go to the gym?" Here are some other polite ways to phrase the question:
- ¿Te gustaría acompañarme al gimnasio hoy?
- Would you like to join me at the gym today?
- ¿Vamos juntos al gimnasio más tarde?
- Shall we go to the gym later together?
Making a Suggestion to Go the Gym
Rather than directly asking, you can subtly put the idea in their mind by making gym-related suggestions:
- Deberíamos hace ejercicio hoy
- We should exercise today
- ¿Qué tal si vamos al gimnasio ahora?
- What about we go to the gym now?
Being Positive About Going to the Gym
Emphasize positive motivation focusing on health, wellness and feeling good:
- Sería bueno hacer algo de ejercicio
- It would be good to exercise
- El ejercicio te ayudará a sentirte bien
- Exercising will make you feel good
Offering to Go to the Gym Together
Team up with phrases like:
- ¿Quieres que vayamos juntos al gimnasio?
- Do you want us to go to the gym together?
- Hagamos ejercicio juntos
- Let's exercise together
Polite Gym Invitation Word Variations
Using the Conditional Tense
The conditional tense softly suggests an action without pressure:
- Me encantaría que fuéramos al gimnasio
- I would love for us to go to the gym

Frame as a Question
Gently nudge them by framing the suggestion as a question:
- ¿Hacemos ejercicio juntos hoy?
- Shall we exercise together today?
- ¿Probamos esa nueva máquina para hacer sentadillas?
- Shall we try that new squat machine?
Using Inclusive Phrasing
Saying "we" implicitly includes them in the action:
