Class for fat kids at the gym This morning I went to the gym and saw  class being given by an overweight trainer to a bunch of overweight kids, and it made me angry as all hell.  It started with the parents dropping them off, of course most of them are overweight or obese as well, then followed by about 40 minutes of light cardio exercises like jumping jacks, jump rope, some squats, and a lot of foam rolling I don't know why maybe they have aches.  When it was over the parents came back, a few had some kind of treat like candy or a soda for their kid.  Just what the fuck? How do you expect your kid to lose weight if you don't feed them correctly, if you don't set a good example?  Why do you think you need to pay this trainer to run your kids through a routine?  Do you not know how to do a jumping jack?  Have you thought maybe of just buying them a bicycle or a soccer ball or a jump rope and kicking them outdoors? Who fucking gives their kid a soda at 10am? Poor kids don't stand a chance and they'll probably grow up thinking "well I used to work out but I never lost weight" or some other bullshit.
