Maurissa Gunn & Riley Christian Share Adorable Couples Exercises: ‘Workout Wednesday Is a Lil Different These Days’
Fans saw Bachelor Nation stars Maurissa Gunn and Riley Christian fall in love and get engaged on Season 7 of “Bachelor in Paradise” this past summer.
Since then, the newly engaged couple has been traveling to meet each other’s families and spending time together in New York City.
They even dressed up for their first Halloween together and have been spending their precious Sunday mornings making breakfast, just as Riley described in “Paradise.”
And amid all the fun these lovebirds are having, they found time to get in a workout— together, of course.

The Bachelor Nation fan favorite couple took to Instagram to share the adorable “workout Wednesday” routine they do together as a couple.
The two start off with some jumping jacks, walking squats, high knees, and arm circles as a quick warm-up before getting into the full workout.
Their first exercise begins with a bang as they do burpees jumping over one another before switching so the other person can complete the exercise.
Then, they start burning up their cores with some partner leg raises where they push each other’s legs down while the person completing the exercise raises their legs and holds onto their partner’s ankles.
Next, Riley and Maurissa did some partner-assisted bodyweight squats where they held hands while squatting up and down.
How cute!

Riley took things to the next level and got some squats in while holding his fiancée before the two assisted each other with wheelbarrow push-ups.
Maurissa took a quick rest and sat on Riley’s back while he did even more push-ups. (It finally makes sense how his arms are so strong!)
Next, the sweet couple got some cardio in with some sprints, which Maurissa won! Looks like that quick rest paid off!
They kept the burning going with some partner sit-ups and push-ups where they gave each other high fives every step of the way.
The Bachelor Nation stars finished their workout off with some bear crawls and, of course, a few kisses for all the hard work!
