Dad and Son Workout - No Excuses! | Josh Bridges Paying the Man Ep. 125 

As a physically broken retired cop at 55, working out with my son in my gym is one of my greatest joys every day. While my workout varies from his more Crossfit-type programming, I still love the joint struggle and sweat we share together getting our daily iron infusion.

Josh, great to have you back! As an early 40-something and father as well, I find that your content resonates more with me. I’ll keep paying the man on the East Coast! Stay strong!

YES! Love this message! Be a great example for your sons and daughters. No excuses. Thanks Josh

Josh, your kids are extremely lucky to have such a great role model as a father. Keep up the great work, and I hope the other one starts joining you on workouts more regularly!

It goes by quick. My son is 21 now and some of my best memories are lifting in the garage with him. Never stop lifting, never stop learning.

When i started to train at 13, my grandfather was the one who took me to the gym and trained with me. Those are some of my best memories. He turned 82 yesterday, still goes to the beach 5 times a week, hops into the river and swims 400m or so. He is an example of what a healthy lifestyle can do. I can't wait to do this with my boys when they a little older!

Josh, you were an early inspiration for me. Now I’m 40 and have 3 girls who see that I wake up at 4 am everyday and do CrossFit and eat healthy and that alone makes them stronger. Dad bod is cop out. Love the weak minds weak legs flag. Just ordered one

I don’t usually make comments, but this is so inspirational. I am 28 with my son turning 3 and I’m currently in the process of being a better version of myself. I am getting back in shape taking control about what I put in my body and what work I put my body through. I was an athlete through high school in multiple sports and needless to say it’s easy to just let yourself go when you get married and start having kids. This right here is what it is about, we have a responsibility to take control of ourselves and show our children how to care for themselves because if we don’t no one else will. We can’t let them go through life so blindly because we failed to do our job as fathers. It’s time for the men in this country to start recognizing what our priorities are and understand our families our the priority. We need each other more than ever. Men find that inner strength and discipline to make yourself and your family the best versions of yourself and them, our futures depend on it. This may come in many forms not just athletics so I dare you to take it a step further teach that son or daughter something new. God bless and thanks for the post.

Two Weeks in a row!! He likes us, he really likes us

Amazing! Love to see father son relationships! This is what life is ALL about! Proud of that young man and look forward with great anticipation of his future success!

You’re the man, nothing gets me more motivated

As a child Development professional , this was a great father son bonging time. This is a moment your son will remember for the rest of his life. I started watching your videos today and I am hooked. 🙏🏼💪🏼

Great job Josh

That’s awesome! Inspired me to get my grandson and granddaughter to workout with me. I have training bar that will work great for them.

Good stuff my friend !! i can relate to the family situation for sure , LEAD BY EXAMPLE 👍

Awesome video

Hi Josh, ha yes it's a bitter sweet moment when your kids start beating you. Welcome to your 40s! I'm a 47 year old father of two with a few injuries. That's why I like your channel so much, It gives me motivation to keep going. I would love to hear more about your goals now that your in your 40s. Thanks!

Love watching you Josh from the UK 💪🏻

Much respect. It’s hard to get my kids to workout w me but when they do I enjoy it.

Awesome pops

Crushing it as always.....respect

Great father and son bonding ❤❤ time. Maybe next life I’ll be so lucky.

❤U Josh! Thank you!!!!!!

As a parent, live your message. So many say do as I say, not as I do. Those are excuses as well. Great messages, most importantly…..pay the man!

Love it!

Good lad getting in there

Love this

Can’t wait for the legacies to complete

Absolutely love this! Fatherhood/Manhood exemplified! Paying the man for the next generation 💪🏼

Your kid moves so well !

A BEAST!!!

Wow! Your son got great body control, and you are great coach! 🙌🏼👑

His son is going to be a stud also one day keep it up Respect 😎

Mentoring is so rewarding.

Man, the coolest thing about this is watching how you balance coaching, but not over coaching, it's the hardest thing in the world when you simply want the best for the kiddo but you don't want to discourage them. Great video! Thank you!

Josh is just a really good dude. Plain and simple. Way to lead your son! God bless you Josh and your family ✝️

Instant upvote. Not a dad bod. A Father figure

Spread the word, Josh! Especially as a dad: fck excuses. Keep it up👍

Good men generally raise good men

That kid is really going to benefit from a great coaching.

Appreciate this Josh, reality check for me after having my first child but currently in the process of being healthy and better for my baby girl and family, I owe them that! Appreciate ya man, loving the content

So Glad you started up again! Love your content! Definitely Goals! Families that train together!

Love seeing you work/workout with one of your kiddos! It’s great to see you passing along sound knowledge on health and fitness. I try to do that with mine as well. Also, huge plus having your videos back up!

Love watching you coach the little dude. Good stuff my man.

Boom!

Josh, I bet you’d enjoy ninja warrior obstacle training with the boys

When I refer to myself in a dad bod term it’s unfortunately because I lost over 100lb and some things don’t change no matter how much muscle you pack on but great message

Always a blessing when the littles want to join in on a workout. Good job Knox!

Enjoy all the videos. I like this one especially for helping beginners understanding the movements. Almost a training class on video. Keep them coming!

About time you have a channel! You are inspiration to go forward and push to the limits 🔥

Josh have you some pro tip / exercise for the guys like me trying to get healthy but with a back pain/ repetitive lumbago that almost afraid me to do any crossfit or any hard weigh lift... Guys if u have some i'll take it too 😉

What shoes are those? Great Video! My 11yo son and I ride motocross together and Ive recently got him to start working out with me also. Good times!

You should develop programming for kids to add to your website. Maybe sport specific for different ages. Anyway- could be cool

WE BACKKK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You’ve been missed man!

Pay the man.

Josh, do you have any concerns about weightlifting having a negative effect on children's growth? I started instructing my son in some basic movements but I am some how hesitant about using barbell exercises...

Spot dude train with my son as much as I can

Great collaboration, this would be fun to watch you train your son up into a professional athlete for next 10 years.

His form is impressive. How much more weight was added because your son was there? I dont know why I always add weight when wife and kids are present. Darn ego of mine.😂

Hey, Josh! Looking forward to seeing you jogging again with a 55-lbs weight on your back! 😉
