This pic was taken last week while Andrea and I were working out at my training studio.
Maren loves coming to the studio and running around while we workout. Sometimes it’s fun to watch her, other times it makes me cringe because she tears the place apart. My studio is full of resistance tubing, foam rollers, medicine balls, small medicine balls, etc. and she throws everything all over the place.
But, she gets to watch us exercise and tries to mimic some of our movements like push-ups, squats and lunges, so that’s kinda cool.
We call her our little Helper Monkey, and this picture shows she’s turning into one. Oddly enough, I got the name Helper Monkey from an episode of The Simpsons where Homer lied to some an organization that provided helper monkeys to handicapped people just so he could get one to do his bidding. The monkey got fat and lazy…
The first thing you need to understand about me is that I believe ALL parents are superheroes...some just have a little too much flabby goo covering their Superhero Body. To learn more about The Fit Dad's story,
