Anyone else going to train the hell out of your kids at a young age?
I most certainly am
I was a chubby fuck when i was a kid. Lazy and hardly ever went out to play. Mostly cause my mom was soo scared i was going to get kidnapped or something. Going to put them through almost every sport they can get into. Make them nice and fit at a young age.
That's a great way to make your kids fucking hate you and be fat fucks later in life.
Yes. I think start him or her on their first cycle around 16.
I'm definitely going to ensure that they get involved in sports at a young age and make sure that they look good and never become fat. God damn parents are so fucking retarded, how you can not understand that building the confidence of your kid is your number one priority is insane to me.
I've already thought some basic shit through for my kids:
1. Make sure they are fit. Nothing crazy, just eating right and healthy and doing physical exercise.
2. Make sure they look good. Nice haircuts, nice clothes, nice car when they turn 16.
3. Make sure they have some struggle and challenge in their life but don't make it a basic need or necessity, that's retarded. Instead their struggles will be competition in high achieving areas. Make sure they understand that I expect more from them than the average retard.
4. Ensure they have social success in their early life. I am so convinced of the importance of this on confidence. If by some chance they become outcasted by their peers in early education I will move them to a new school.
Can't believe the retarded idea that people have that if you give your kid food and shuffle him off to school the rest will just magically take care of itself.
Not if you do it right. I knew a kid who's parents made him eat healthy and train. He was always in great shape and had a great relationship with them. Still in good shape now.
My parents did exactly what you are planning to do. Me, my, brother, and sisters resent my parents now because of it. Allow them to do what they want to do athletically so you do not burn them out. Choose one sport, then if they do not like it, move on.
I wish my parents allowed me to just stick to cross-country. Instead, they forced me and my siblibgs to do everything. Me and one of my sisters excelled at running when we did only it, my brother excelled at basketball, the other is so resentful she went full HAES.
Not really train, no. But I will have a strict limit on technology, particularly iPads and television. I'll play a real active role by taking them out on outdoor activities. Kayaking, fishing, golfing, various sports. I want my kid to be able to enjoy the peace of nature. Not need a constant bombardment of bright and loud videos.
Its hard to have a fitness plan for your kids, because there's always a chance they're just going to hate it and resent you. I mostly plan to stick to building good foundations. Small amounts of junk and fast food (because if you just outright ban it, they'll get it from somewhere else), family walks that will hopefully become family runs, proper hygiene: none of the shower-once-every-few-days or piles-of-dirty-plates-in-my-room crap.
just dont even have junk food in the house. kid in pic is 100% gay now, his dad wanted him to be obsessed with his body which led to his obsession with all male bodies. if you want your kid to grow into a total gaylord working pole in the gym showers, then verbal abuse, restricting freedom, and obsessing over every detail of his life is a great way to do it. he will have daddy issues for sure. you should only train your kids if they want to excel at sports and understand what training is.
my dad did muay thai when i was a young kid and I got into it just watching him train, he never tried to force me into it or anything I just saw him training and wanted to copy him. kids are like that, just be a good role model and they'll kinda emulate it on their own I guess.
If I have kids I'm just gonna get them into sport. Its one thing to have them active, fit and healthy but you also need to cultivate communal values and strong social bonds in them. People that play sports during their formative years have it ez mode in school and are basically set for the rest of their life as a result
>they'll kinda emulate it on their own I guess.
In most cases, this will happen if a parent doesn't force them into it.

Yep, most people don’t understand children. They are awful listeners, but amazing observers.
Im going to force him to eat nothing but McDonalds, never lift weights or exercise, get circumcised and put him on track to be a "male" nurse.
You know, the average American.
I have 2 kids, and as much as you may say you'll do it, the reality is that you probably won't. Kids are annoyingly stubborn. It's difficult to force things on them without making them push back. I'm not saying don't try, but you'll be better off easing into it. Get them into playing that is also exercise, and as they age focus that towards sports. When you adequately get them into a sport, they'll be more willing to exercise to get better at it rather than trying to get into exercising for the sake of it.
t b h id rather ensure my children develop a high level of emotional intelligence early on and encourage any of the pursuits they want to do. i was kind of just left alone so i just stayed inside drawing and reading, which is fine, but when i was forced to do sports i despised them for no good reason because i didn't know how to deal with it, and eventually i lost interest in reading and drawing so now i'm a boomer whos just trying to recapture some of the brilliance i used to have.
I'm not going to force my kids into training. I will, however, leave some 5 lbs dumbbells laying around so they at least get the hang of proper lifting before they're teens.
Your mom cucked you lmao. You need to anal her
My dad taught me how to ride a bicycle with no training wheels at 2 and got me on a dirt bike at 3
Not the best social sport because you travel on weekends and your friends from the tracks live hours away but I'm glad I learned the reflexes and athletic ability
Picked up golf and after the first year I was beating my dad's buddies who've been playing 15+
>building the confidence of your kid is your number one priority
It can turn them into spoiled fags though
see and if you dont want your kids to be spoiled, dont give them material rewards/ support, instead show and help them with making their own personal gains in the gym, outdoors, etc so they will have a better point to do those as adults :)
They may end up hating it and you later. I'm going to take my kids to the park, feed them well, and probably start them in gymnastics when they're young but I don't want to overdo it. If they choose to do sports, I'll support them but I don't want to push them into it.
If they get fat as a teenager, I will bully them out of it however. I may be white but I have the oriental fat kid bullying system down pat.
My dad did long distance running and I started running with him at 10. Won a bunch of races, school records and shit in highschool. If I could do it over, I'd have joined the Judo/Wrestling squad like my little brother and lifted weights. Hindsight is 20/20 tho
Making you kid lift weights from on early age can stunt their growth, like a lot of the athletic kids who started going to the gym at 12 only grew to about 5'6, one even 5'2
I did basketball for most of grade school, and then did both basketball and swimming. Got to a point where in middle school got the whole way to nationals with my relay team (I had to do breast stroke), but at one point when I was doing both I wore my body down and developed mono and had to stay home from school for like a month, after that, didn't do any sports. I then became a total fatty who only now that I am in my 30s am trying to rectify. By no means am I fit, but in the last 2 months, lost 11 pounds thanks to weight training, and just walking around my hilly neighborhood wearing 10 pound weights on my legs. So yes I agree that some exercise as a kid is good, but too much can lead to body break down and sickness.
Literally COPE the post
>how to create spoiled children 101

i sure as hell hope you die in an accident soon

I wouldn’t say “train the hell out of” my future 4-6 sons hopefully, I would say emphasis on physical fitness of some form would be present throughout their lives, and constantly cooking healthy, yet good tasting meals would be a good way to keep them fit, I see a lot of my peers now at 22 who have terrible diets and it really screws with their physique, no soda, ever for my kids, maybe some juice in the morning in small amounts or a small Gatorade if they’re playing a highly active sport
I’d suggest swimming from a young age, it really saved me, I was chubby from birth to like age 5 when I started swimming and growing vertically it really prepared me for weights by the time I hit high school.
Swimming got me slim and have the faintest muscle definition by age 9 that it made my babysitter force me to take my clothes off infront of her and cry so there’s that.
You have to be the idol of your kid, not the pressing yet unhappy parent. If your kid sees you enjoying what you do then they will want to as well. If they see you hate it, then why would they want to do it?
Don’t push them too hard. Growing up I saw it all the time. Parents spend thousands every year on training their kids. We’re talking 5-6 days a week, 1-2 hours per day, on nothing but hockey programs and personal trainers. They get burnt out and quit athletics entirely at 16-17, and because alcoholic retards after that. Definitely keep them in sports throughout the year, but don’t push training on them til they’re 13-15. In a kids mind, lifting a barbell is way less fun than scoring a goal or landing a touchdown.
To add into this, get them in a ton of different sports when they’re young. Eventually they’ll find one they love and stick with it. Doing the same sport all year gets boring real fast for a kid.
i mean if you want a real answer it's that the idea that people are forged in fire is largely mythological
most people in developed nations have pretty low trauma thresholds and get their sense of self-worth destroyed by the meandering, sedated vicissitudes of K-12, 9-5 walking death
by the time they raise kids, they've already given up on most everything aside from momentary pleasure. there's a dying ember of a soul that projects an image of family, values, and dreams onto the husk and occasionally flickers a little brighter than usual to give off the illusion that its anything more than a few platitudes dreamt of in childhood on repeat
This 10000%. Don't plan shit for your kids. Plan for yourself and execute, and they will follow. Kids have no respect for "do as I say, not as I do" parenting, no matter how sensible the lesson.
seriously this, having children before self-mastery is the single quickest road to misery that begets misery
My dad made me do pushups for punishments.
By the time I was about 13 if I talked back or something I'd have to do 200 proper form pushups without leaving the ground.
I'm 26 and can still punch out nearly 100 full pushups without pausing.
lmao yikes
my kids will play sport and certainly not spend any time in a fucking gym
Just train and you kids will probably want to do the same.
My dad used to do pushups and shit, that's what made me get into weightlifting.
i would fucking hate you.
you can show them it is fun and they can try themselves, no parent passion forcing, retard
(OP)
So you're gonna have kids because you failed and now you want to fulfill your childhood through them. Do you realize how pathetic that makes you? Don't have kids until you wisen up, or better yet don't have kids at all.
Don't. Give them the choice, but don't force them.
Make them eat healthy and educate them about the benefits of certain sports and living a healthy lifestyle from an early age.
Show them some nice tricks if you can, like handstands.
It might give them the motivation to make the right choice themselves, without being forced to.
If you force them, they not only will hate you, but there is a high chance that they will start hating healthy things too and drop the forced healthy lifestyle after they move out.
amen
I'm a dad. Your plans are cool. But it's easy as fuck to talk about doing that shit from your basement while shitposting on Jow Forums.
It's like posting online how you're going to start a dropshipping business and become a millionaire in a year.
When you have a kid that screams all day, follows you around the house and is breathing down your neck for 18 hours a day, you will be god damn happy to "shuffle him off to school. You will literally fucking thank God that someone is willing to take care of your kid and teach it things.
I literally thank God that I am able to go to my shitty office job making shit money for 10 hours a day so I can avoid my wife and kids.
You can have every ambition in the world to take good care of your kid, like I did.
Try to do all that shit when you don't have a single moment of free time for years straight while your wife is nagging you all day. Try to give a fuck about your kid when you haven't done ANYTHING fun you wanted to do in YEARS.
I always lol at all the retarded immature children in here with all their ideals. In reality you will want to fucking kill yourself every day.
I'm mostly just going to teach my kids about proper nutrition and exercise as they get older. When they're young I'll just make them play outside, take them to the park and beach, etc. As they get a little older I'll nudge them towards sports and whatnot. Forcing them never works, but getting them to want to do it is successful if you can actually convince them that they want to.
How is this different from what Elliot Rodger got?
I'd train the fuck out of him of you catch my drift
Can't you just fucking work something out with your wife where she takes care of the kids so you can get some free time to do something?
And what is up with women being so fucking nagging all the time? Can't you just tell the cunt to shut the fuck up? You are the man, the leader, the patriarch of your house, set some rules and enforce them.
