When it comes to getting in a good workout, the one thing people need the most is their focus.
Distractions being what they are, they can also be dangerous.
Staying focused can eliminate that, and partners help people stay focused.
But what if your partner’s distracting?
How will you finish your session?
This man’s partner is his dog.
The man’s doing pull-ups at his personal home gym and once he finishes a set, he grabs his mat and stretches it out on the floor for a different set of exercises.
Maybe some sit-ups, push-ups, probably burpees?
He’s got his gym face on and from the looks of it, this guy has a lot more in his tank for the workout.
His dog Bailey has other ideas.
Aside from being the partner, this Golden Retriever wants to be the fitness coach too.
She sees the mat is set up and already she’s on it before her human is. He’s trying to position himself but she won’t let him. No way.
Well since Goldens are reasonably large breeds, they have some weight to them. So he lifts her and tries to plop her down on the couch.
But Bailey is as quick as lightning and is back on the mat again.
At least he’s getting curls in.
And it is the fluffiest bicep curl we’ve ever seen.
Bailey starts jumping around in circles and whether that’s her workout or she’s just being playful is entirely up to you.
He finally spots enough space and positions himself for a push-up.
Oops! Bailey sees the space and dives beneath her human dad.
Ain’t gonna happen, pal.
This is a core workout with bonus belly rubs.
Bailey’s dad is beside himself.
His focus is gone and he is just laughing now at his dog’s crazy antics. Focus, Bailey.
Dad picks her up again and positions her gently on the couch. He doesn’t realize it but that’s a full-body workout already.
Get those protein shakes ready.
Bailey allows her dad a rest.
But only for a few moments. Unfortunately for him, he thought she was finally taking the hint and settling in. Nope.
Her dad finally gets into a plank position and just when he’s about to begin, boom. Dog alert.
Bailey jumps down, encircles him, jumps over, and dives once more beneath her dad.
Well, there’s no helping it.
Dad gives up and just allows Bailey to have her way. He assumes the plank and holds it for that extra strong core.
Bailey, being the good fitness partner she is, then decides to use her own weight as added resistance and help her dad burn more calories.
What a good partner.
Dad gets to finish his workout and even lets Bailey have her fun as she starts to run around and play again.
That’s her burning calories alright.
See coach Bailey help her dad get the most out of his home workout in the video below!
