If your spouse is a Canadian citizen, the time spent outside of Canada living with him/her will count towards your Residency Obligation days (730 within each rolling 5 year period).

If you are subject to Conditional PR rules, it will require you to live with your sponsor spouse at the same address for 2 years after becoming PR.

Also once you get PR if you don't live with your spouse and stay in USA alone, after 3 years you'll be in violation of the residency obligation and could have your PR status revoked. So if you intend to live in USA while she lives in Canada for next 5 years, don't even bother to apply now.

Why would you bother applying for Canadian PR if you have no intention of living there anytime soon?

Yup. Don't apply or get ur PR right now. It doesn't make sense. Once u finally decide to move to Canada, then apply.
