No new name for gym buddy

So the other day I was talking about A new name for gym buddy but for a guy and a girl or a girl and a girl working out together I can't come up for new name other than gym buddy.

So I will change the subject like I do in conversations when I don't know the answer. What about politics ha. There's a lot happening with politics. I mean you've got politics everywhere.

That was my attempt to change the subject. I think it worked. But I don't know much about politics either so I won't be talking about that.

I'm going to the gym with my iron comrad. Bye.
