This morning Boys and me at the Gym I love aggravating them

At fifteen they both have started really getting into weight lifting they also have enrolled in after school weight training program. Myself I’ve always been more cardio or resistance exercises like as kid in army. Pull ups sit ups push ups i swim laps, I have replaced running with rowing my knees I’m 53. And now after we warm up at the ymca these two head off to iron pile to lift, they both wanna get bulked up.

Their words dad your scrawny we want to get bulked up now I find humor



Weight wise they average around 150 to 160 at fifteen years of age height both of them five foot eight ,five foot nine to my six foot weight I come in maybe 145 weight. I love watching them do lifting and then they go to mirror and flex and give each other high five they make me smile.

So I walked over to let them know I was gonna go hit pool swim. And our one son says dad look at this as he was posing flexing. He says look at these guns what do you think, I responded cool I see cheeseburgers pizza chip beef mashed potatoes then I said like I used to when he was younger. And hugged him I love you little man, then I really went dad and grabbed our other son and hugged them both. They were embarrassed dad really public hugs not cool then I turned it up and kissed them on forehead, then headed to the pool.
