I have been into sports and exercised all my life so I am on the is mans side this time. This person clearly has insecurities that she is pushing off onto her husband.

The husband loves his wife and just wants to share his day or his passion with her. Might even be that he thinks she will eventually embrace the same passion.

My wife and I will go to the gym when we can or I will go and workout with a good friend at 6 AM.

I love my wife and I want to stay healthy for her. I want to be with her for as long as I possibly can. Maybe this guy feels that way.

In any event there are deeper problems in this marriage that should be addressed.
