Aaron Judge aka the ‘All Rise’ Captain of the New York Yankees is gearing up for Spring Training. While one generally expects him to replicate his best moves as a slugger while practicing, Judge is on a different fitness regime. To add to it, he has his partner Samantha by his side, engaging in an exercise that is quite out of the box. 

The 6 feet 7 inches start of the Yankees graced the Peloton leaderboard with his wife. The two were spotted breaking a sweat as they cycled along. If there is one thing Judge is not too public about, it is this little nugget of fitness routine that he shares with his wife. Turns out this is not the first time.

The video came to light when Madyson (@Majorleaguemadd), “The baseball girl”, tweeted a clip. The tweet read, “My mom just sent me this. Aaron Judge and his wife Sam in the Peloton class she’s taking 😂”. Take a minute to absorb the delicious sight of Judge pedaling away. He probably stole the show in that room. 

The much loved New York slugger, fresh off his Roberto Clemente award win, pushed through the resistance, muscles straining and breaths coming in ragged bursts. This was perhaps more than just a casual workout. It made a statement about his relentless drive towards reaching baseball’s summit along with supporting his wife. 

Well, this is not the only time the 31-year-old has supported his wife. The adorable couple has been seeing running trails together. Back in 2022, Judge accompanied his wife Samantha (Sam) Bracksieck, one Sunday. It was the first day of MLB free agency that year. Both of them are fitness enthusiasts and running and Peloton in particular are their gateway to a fitter life.

Speaking of Peloton, he was spotted in class even in 2022 December. It appears that attending Peloton classes with his lady love is a classic activity for him during the off season. That said, Sam and he shared the same intensity of practice displaying the seriousness both of them have. Not only is it adorable to see both of them engage in this activity, it gives one couple goals.
