We celebrate love year round. In February, we put it front and center. Equinox members Brandon Osorio and Richie Eisenberg originally met at a house party in Provincetown.

They don't always train together, but when they do: "We always have headphones in and ensure we have a tough workout. We save the chit-chat for later." #ItsNotFitnessItsLife
