Babies do the funniest things sometimes. While they are growing up and still have a whole lot to learn, they often times manage to surprise us in adorable and entertaining ways. Whether it is their first steps or their first words, they are always up to something that simply makes our hearts melt!

But while we expect babies to eventually say things like “Dada” and learn how to sing the alphabet, there are also some things we would never imagine them trying in a million years.

This baby works out.

This one baby proved that he is unlike others and learning something spectacular at an unusually young age — how to exercise!

This little boy is only six months old and he is already working on getting fit.

In an adorable video uploaded to YouTube by Good Morning America (which was originally uploaded to Instagram), we see the young baby, whose name is Landon Todd, and his father, Charlie Todd, doing push-ups together. Have you ever seen anything purer than that? We know we sure haven’t.

Charlie is a personal trainer for a living, so it only makes sense that he kicks his kid off in the same career path so early on.

It seems like Landon is totally loving it already though, no complaints here as he tries to support his own body weight!

Charlie shared that Landon “loves” working out with him, and this doesn’t seem to be their first time. It seems like they workout together quite often. What better way to get in some quality father/son bonding than with a quick workout session?

It is already impressive enough that Landon can handle push-ups — we are pretty sure that is an exercise that not even a lot of adults can accomplish without feeling weak and defeated.

The best part is that it does not even end there. On top of already being able to do one of the most demanding exercises, Landon can also do squats.

Landon also does squats, and in addition to that, his other hidden talent is that he is able to turn the light switch on and off.

“He always surprises me,” Charlie says, referring to his son.

With a binky in his mouth, Landon attempts to do a push-up in the clip. “Up, up… Down, down,” his father tries to guide him. Charlie is clearly loving it as he can’t stop smiling and giggling the whole way through. He totally loves it.

In today’s world, where there is so much alarming news and stressful negativity out there, it is really refreshing and heartwarming to see a story such as this make headlines. We all know we need a little bit of joy and happiness in our lives these days!

The world seems to agree too, as the video went viral shortly after it was uploaded to Instagram. People clearly can’t get enough of this father/son joy.

“Finally something in the news to smile about,” one viewer commented.

We couldn’t agree more!
