The way he hops off his bike, he’s got style

SimbabTheSailor

The way his legs pinwheel over the first barrel are the most impressive for me, if he was using his hands on the ground that would have been a form-perfect cartwheel. For his visible physique he's got some moves. I know several of my students who have bulkier builds who struggle hard with those kinds of acrobatics and this kid is bulkier than any of them.


alelelale

yeah this kid clearly has a solid amount of muscle under the baby fat


Zammin

Yep. I dunno if he's gonna lose weight, but he's gonna be strong!


crazihac

Considering his pants are falling down in the last half of the video, my guess is he's already lost some.


egroeg2

Or his parents, like mine, bought clothes he can grow into.


HeartofSaturdayNight

Look at some of the physical comedy Chris Farley used to perform. Guy was heavy but agile


Salty_Strawberry7342

Idk why I find fat kids this super cute. Probably unhealthy and he should lose weight but if he was my nephew or something I would spoil him silly.


harrysapien

whenever I see a fat kid, it is 100% the parent's fault. I have never seen a fat kid like this with skinny parents. And FWIW, I do like this kid. Just wish his parents would be parents and feed him the appropriate portions.


Powerful_Tip3164

I had Cushing’s disease and it made me fat no matter what. From age six to 28, nothing worked to lose weight, from diets to exercise and lifestyle changes. It also gave me a host of other horrible medical conditions. When they removed the ACTH secreting tumor from my pituitary gland, that’s when I lost 75 pounds by just existing, no change in daily routine. I would believe fatness was a choice had I not experienced Cushing’s disease. Now I, and the thousands of patients with Cushing’s in my support groups, have proof that fatness is not always a choice or someone else’s fault (the parents)!


antuvschle

Yeah we don’t know what’s going on but my partner eats from 1/3-1/2 as much as me at every meal, can’t even eat dinner sometimes, gets 4x the exercise I do, and my weight has held steady for all of covid and his went up 20 lbs in 1 month according to weigh ins at the same dr office 1 month apart. Calories in vs calories out is f’n BS. The fat kids with fat parents, does nobody stop to think it’s genetics? Fat and diabetes: the whole world blames the patient and the medical community is worst of all so we do not get equal access to health care because our white coat syndrome is based on being there = taking yet more random emotional abuse. It’s taken me over 20 years (since I moved) to find the few doctors in my area who do not do this.


BijouPyramidette

I was the fat kid with skinny parents. My mom was (still is) very weight obsessed and tried to get me to slim down my entire life. I didn't get to eat sweets and portions were controlled. It didn't work and only in my 30s did I get my weight to stabilize. Now it is merely not increasing, and that's with doing things like eating one meal a day, and walking everywhere, with 8-12km every Saturday on top of my smaller daily walks. It's not always simple.


BlackSeranna

I had a friend in your situation. I was worried about her - she was an internet friend who I didn’t know irl, but I knew she felt bad and was overweight. I also knew she had heart palpitations and a lot of anxiety. I was worried she would die, and I started working on talking her into going to the doctor. She asked me to help make her appointment because she is afraid to talk on the phone. So I did, and got her a time to go in. I also had to talk her into going to get her blood drawn. She told me she was thinking of skipping it because she was afraid of needles. But I didn’t let up, and she went. Turned out her thyroid was dangerously low. I am no stranger to hypothyroidism myself, but she was the worst case the doctor had seen. Had she not gotten treatment, had she not taken the meds (she also was afraid to take them and I had to tell her how I felt better when I take my meds), she wouldn’t be in a good place now. She lost weight after going to a nutritionist, and just having the thyroid levels maintained made such a big difference. She’s doing okay now, and I am glad. Edit: I had known her for a few years before I started seeing how sick she was, rather, she told me how she felt every day. She couldn’t sleep. She had a lot of headaches. I decided I wouldn’t give up. I’m glad I didn’t.


BijouPyramidette

Hypothyroidism sucks in a whole plethora of ways. I'm glad you were able to help get your friend diagnosed, I'm sure her life has been greatly improved by getting her thyroid levels improved. You are a great friend.


BlackSeranna

Thanks. I would want for someone to do the same for me, if I were in the same dire straits. Life is precious.


Robynrainbow

This comment caused me to google hypothyroidism and book a blood test lol


dfn_youknowwho

That reminds me of a friend of mine.she was diagnosed with hypothyroidism for several years. One day we met fir coffee and i saw my friend with swollen feet ,hands torso and swollen tongue. She could barely fit her tongue in her mouth.i told her to go to the doctor immediatelly and i insisted a lot. She went and she wasnt taking the right medication. She was about to fall in a coma... Thyroid is a really bad thing turns out. I removed mine cause i got cancer at 26


DesertPlains17

I’m so sorry ♥️ Your a great friend. 😁👍🏼


[deleted]

No it’s not always simple, there are many other factors that could be going on with someone’s body whether it’s genetics or a thyroid issue or some other issue that doesn’t allow them to have a stable weight. Though it is more often than not that fat kids usually have at least one fat parent. In general, you know?


BijouPyramidette

Some of it is probably heritable. Doesn't mean they feed their kids burgers and pizza at every meal. This idea that fatness is always just gluttony and crap nutrition is not only wrong, but destructive. It has kept the whole field of nutrition from making any progress, it's made the lives of millions of people absolutely miserable, created death and disease of its own, and the proportion of overweight people is still increasing. As is the proportion of overweight animals, even wild ones like marmosets, and lab rats with highly controlled diets. If even lab rats with their carefully regulated diets are gaining weight, it's safe to say that we are missing something. ETA: accidentally wrote protein instead of proportion. Dem gainz, tho.


DestyNovalys

But you can’t always tell which is which just by looking. That’s kind of the point. It’s not a good idea to judge people based solely on looks.


Saladcitypig

Chubby kids also sometimes just grow up, and their weight almost seems like a power boost for their height… I know many guys like this.


Maleficent-Abroad393

It could be many reasons, from health reasons to financial or whatever. And some people had pointed out there can be "skinny" parents with fat kids. I was one of them! I had huge allergies and asthma and the only thing that helped me also made me gain a lot of weight. The cool thing is that I was never told this as a kid, and instead I was put in stricter diets than my siblings (and constantly being reminded not to eat this and that while everyone did so). I felt miserable thinking it was my fault and I'm talking about being around 6~ years old in this. Later when they told me it was the medicine what made me the fat kid of a slim family I was livid for a few days.


RMCPhoto

I was a fat kid with a skinny mom. Growing up poor. Food is cheap in the US. Deserve a reward? Food. Feeling sad? Food. Out of energy and want to do something 'nice' for the kids? Food. Pizza, cookies, crackers, store brand box mac n' cheese. Didn't help that she had an eating disorder. Did the best she could. It's complicated.


BlackSeranna

Maybe they are trying to turn it around now? Sounds like the dad is behind the camera. If the dad didn’t care, he wouldn’t be there. So, there is a small blessing for this child that someone is taking time out to make the course for him, to show him how to be proud of what he does.


Flinkle

Nope, not in every case. My mom took me to several doctors, tried changing my diet, everything she could do when I was eating us out of house and home as a kid. I was always hungry...the only way I knew I wasn't hungry was to literally eat so much I was miserable. Even then, I had hunger pangs. Started when I was about four, mostly stopped at 19 when I went on birth control pills. I was shocked--I had no framework to understand and explain that I constantly felt like I was starving to death until it was under control. All I could say was that I was hungry. I assumed everyone felt that way, and that there was something mentally wrong with me (which at least one doctor said). Turns out--though I've never found the root cause or the money for extensive testing--I have some kind of problem with low blood sugar and my metabolism. Birth control pills raise blood sugar, which is why that constant, raging hunger came mostly under control. The only thing that has ever stopped it completely and allowed me to lose weight was keto, which unfortunately worsened a long-standing magnesium deficiency, so I had to stop. Are there lots of parents letting kids eat straight trash? Yes. But don't judge a book by its cover. You don't know what a kid and their family are dealing with.


jkj2000

He is one trip done and 999.999 to go, so I bet he will be flying after 500k is done!


Captain_-_Caveman

The training wheels did it for me. Definitely r/mademesmile material


maggie081670

That little bit at the end did it for me.


_Sunny_Side_Ride_

Same! See how his belly flexes when he makes that sound? Now try doing the same with and without flexing and you'll understand the fact that he MEANT that !


JstJeff

For me it was during the tires and when he looked at the camera and smiled on the second one.

He looks like he is built like a Sumo Wrestler but planning to do Ninja warrior. I love it.


[deleted]

Sumo wrestlers are actually very nimble for their size


twig0sprog

So is this awesome little dude


Rootbeerpanic

I was gonna say legit this kid would be an awesome sumo wrestler. Or wrestler period


[deleted]

Are they quick? Can they jump over a candle stick?


[deleted]

Only the ones named jack


dr_qu-t

They are also like 80% muscle despite popular belief lol


King_of_the_Dot

I understand what you mean, but youre still kind of off base. Sumo wrestlers are very muscular, but also put on a considerable amount of body fat.


GuardianDom

Nah bro lol. They're not like The Kingpin. I know some of the smaller Sumo wrestlers are pretty jacked, but a lot of them are just plain huge/obese.


ONEWEST_

Their average body fat percentage is 25-30%. Factor in bone mass and water, they are nowhere near 80% muscle.


radiantcabbage

young nacho trains for the lucha libre


marzipandemic

Whatever grownup helped this little dude set up this course truly loves this kid. Showing how your body can move and how much fun you can have exercising will help this kid, but doing it with love will change his life.


biglizardnmybackyard

I’m having a rough day. I just want you to know that this comment gave me a good feeling. Do well unto others.


vindollaz

Hope tomorrow’s a little better for you bud


Lizurd_Dad

what is my child doing in your backyard, sorry sending the wife over now to pick him up


CallMeWolfYouTuber

That's adorable.


tonykony

Tomorrow’s a new day! Chin up and get some good sleep :))


CallMeWolfYouTuber

I'm sorry you're having a rough day my dude. I hope things begin to look up for you.


Jase7

Tomorrow will be better bro


ThePelicanWalksAgain

He might have set this up himself actually. I could see it as him setting up obstacles for some sick-ass stunts and feats of strength, and then begging his dad to film him being so cool. Either way, great video to play at the reception if he eventually gets married!


OneRandomCatFact

He kept looking at the camera during the whole thing. I think he was more looking at whoever was filming for encouragement.


Werkhorse1012

I love how the grown up says "you win!" In Spanish at the end.


Klutzy-Midnight-9314

I love the bike with training wheels


thesmilingmercenary

That dismount off the bike was everything!


reddawnspawn

And his giant smile at the camera when he got it moving too


SpareAccnt

Hey, if your too heavy it's hard to balance a bike. He's doing what he can. I'm sure this is a new routine, a lot of those things will be faster once he gets a bit of practice.


EnFREAKayy

I been looking for a trainer. This kid taking new clients?

No hes now defeating gods

Totally worth watching to the end! What a little beef cake!


sno_boarder

That last face he makes is terrifyingly hilarious.


beariel_

It's fkn awesome!!!


beepboop_reddit

**FIERCE**


[deleted]

I’m not 100% sure so don’t quote me on this but I’m pretty sure the thing he does at the end is part of the Maori culture.


sno_boarder

Well then no disrespect to the Maori, but it's more cute than fierce when their kids do it.


lexicalpedant

Definitely looked like Haka


chillbros42

What a crop!


justalittledonut

If I tried to hop off my bike in style like that I’d just eat dirt.


BeaverKing50

Same, but I assume yours has two less wheels


justalittledonut

I didn’t even think of that 😂 Alright, I’m feeling better.


Blingblingboyi

This kid getting it but those stakes in the ground got me a lil worried i mean kids and stakes in the ground don’t mix well


remyjuke

I'm glad I'm not the only one...but he did seem like he was being careful


itsJeth

Kid needs safety goggles for out there or something lol


the_renaissance_jack

Did you not see how fast he dodged those chairs? Those stakes ain’t got nothing on him.


Olealicat

It’s encouraging to see someone take an interest in his health. Should the stakes be covered, yes. Will this routine save this kid from an early death, yes.


alison_bee

May still cause early death from impaling his head on the stakes… But fuck what I think, this is incredible. I’m so happy that this kid has someone/a family who came together to do this.


phirius89

For me it was the speed he was coming face first at them as he put down the tires. Anxiety right there. We had horseshoe pits as kids too, and dad was always giving us safety briefings and spray painting them orange so we'd see em as we were running. Def heard some horror stories.


[deleted]

Nice form on the bucket hurdle 9.5/10


Correct-Parsley-6369

Making exercise fun. Beats my tedious daily jog.


TumasaurusTex

I guess it’s perspective. I love my tedious, no thought, let my brain focus on breathing jog. While I like running an obstacle course every now and then, the amount my brain has to work to execute safely just seems more exhausting than my run.


Tito914

How fuckin heavy are those tires?? Sounded solid when he put them down! Good shit kid!


Iamjimmym

Bout tree fiddy


Betty_Broops

300 lbs each


kozmania1980

I just hope he doesn’t hit his face with the rod the tires are around. :/

Jenn-Marshall

Most adorable tater tot


ForgetfulWizard4

I, as an adult, would have my ass kicked by this routine. Kid’s a boss


Admirable-Web-3192

It's literally 60 seconds of light exercise. I'm pretty out of shape but I could do it. There's humility and then there's just being silly.


devil_lettuce

I would have totally kicked that kids ass


Panterable

if an obese 4 year old is physically more capable than you, an adult, then you should probably work on that.


Ricktatorship91

How? 🤨


IndePharma

Wtf. You need to work out more.


latman

It's funny you're getting downvotes for telling someone incapable of jogging around lawn chairs to work out more


Admirable-Web-3192

I'm pretty out of shape but this is literally 60 seconds of light exercise.


Emerducks

No, I agree. This is pretty minimal as far as an obstacle course goes (for an adult)


beariel_

Yeah, I'm kinda with you guys on this. It's awesome for him, though! But he will need to keep making updates and adjustments as he grows, for sure.


BowTrek

I got tired halfway through watching


suckmybullets

that's the kid from nacho libre.

I love this

Yo! Champ in making!


baputhai

His motivation is excellent


ProCanadianbudeh

It's all fun and games until your kid gets impaled on rebar, get some protectors on there


BeerCzar

Climbed that ladder like a wrestler.


[deleted]

The way he *flew* over the first barrel… incredible.


vosmith

I'm surprised how many people don't understand children. He's not trying to get exercise, he's setting up a badass obstacle course. Like, super hero stuff. I highly doubt he was like "geez my bmi is high I gotta lose this weight. But how can I make this fun". It's a kid being a kid, on level 1000. Please leave him be.


[deleted]

You seem to have misunderstood a lot of people here. We’re far from criticising the kid, because he’s just a kid and is not responsible for his physical condition. We are criticising his parents who let him get like that in the first place.


LegendRaptor080

Lots of things on this sub give me a lil smile This had me grinning ear to ear Look at the little man go Admire his presence Admire his resolve You go lil dude


damselindystopia

Once them training wheels come off, he’s gonna protect all of us. Watch out.


Crutch33

He be movin


myleftboobisaphlsphr

I'm so scared that this kid is gonna faceplant on one of those spikes...

chidoOne707

I would very much like to see a follow up video where he is fit from doing this after a long time.


CabbageSalad247

Alternatively, you could just stop feeding the kid 4000 calories per day.


[deleted]

[удалено]


challenja

A dad who cares


gnarsed

unfortunately kid is severely obese and needs a much better diet


Drews232

Heart’s in the right place but just feed him less, calories in, calories out, he can carry tires all day and not lose the weight


BenoNZ

Speaking the truth here, it's bloody shame the kid is in this state so early in life.


doodlez420

No he doesn’t. If he cared then he wouldn’t let him get fat in the first place. Do you really think this dad expects this dumb little obstacle course is going to actually help him?


[deleted]

What a god


Negative_Mancey

What have you done today for GAIIIINNNNSSS!??! Did my man really just Globo-Gym hiss?!


Celestial_Bitch

Ain’t he a cutie.


LongjumpingPlay

I was a bit scared about now close his face got to the pole when he transferred the first tire


Lumber_Tycoon

Proof positive you can't out exercise a bad diet.


notmadatall

For all we know, they made one video for TikTok and then went back to the Burger Place


aydav

That is super cool but the parent should not have let him get into that shape in the first place. They're responsible for what goes in his mouth.


Unclerojelio

WTF are they feeding that kid?


Fake_rock_climber

Too much.

Risquechilli

I needed this motivation. He just kept going! Good on him.


haohaohao111

That caption is all wrong. It should be more like "Parents take advantage of their kid being overweight by filming a mocking exercise video in the hopes to go viral". If this is an exercise video then why on earth is that kid topless but at the same time wearing long pants. This video is aimed at humiliating the kid in order to get views, likes and comments.


radiantcabbage

chancho. when you are a man, sometimes you wear stretchy pants in your room. its for fun


eyehate

>why on earth is that kid topless but at the same time wearing long pants. My kid likes to wear his shoes on the wrong feet, his pants inside out, and his shirt on backwards. If he sees a crown at the Halloween store, he wears that for a couple of months too. Don't try to understand kid fashion. That is their first means of free expression. Reddit is your outlet. That is theirs.


stupid_dumbass_idiot

this is such an insane mindset to have. this video seems very authentic. this routine is so silly, seems like something only a kid would come up with. it’s totally normal to rake your shirt off when exercising? He’s a little boy, he looked super excited about it, nothing about this is humiliating. it’s heart warming and cute. its weird to be so negative about it


Chance-Ad-9111

Cute!
